Business parks battle it out
Article Abstract:
Business parks are being developed in the south of Manchester, England. The major players are Arlington Securities with its Woodhouse Park site of 67 acres, and Amec with its Cheadle Royal site also of 67 acres. Meanwhile P and O Properties is making progress at Towers Business Park. There is also the Concord Business Park of 20 acres where Hypo Properties and Didsbury are active. Demand for premium, high-specification offices is limited and a problem of oversupply could arise.
