Counting on further expansion

Article Abstract:

The city of Leicester, England, is continuing to prosper as a retailing city, with 668,880 sq mt of retail space. The 50,800 sq mt Shires shopping centre is largely responsible for the city's popularity as a shopping venue, with latest tenants including Gap and La Senza.The office sector is led by local companies and there is little good-quality office space available in the town centre. In the industrial market, warehouse space is at a premium and rent levels could be on the rise.

Space wars

Article Abstract:

There is about 342 million square feet of industrial stock in Birmingham, England, but a large proportion of this comprises owner-occupied facilities or is stock of secondary quality. Some agents are concerned that demand may exceed supply, with new building restricted in the area and new premises already having a low vacancy rate. Confidence is growing in the light industrial sector, with manufacturing accounting for 50% of industrial inquiries and warehousing the remainder.

The office development sector is showing signs of life, although there is a dearth of new office buildings. An analysis of the industrial and commercial property market in Bromley is presented.
