LGP unveils plans for new phase in Hounslow
Published: 27 January, 2012
Legal & General Property has entered into an exclusivity agreement with The London Borough of Hounslow
It will now explore options for delivering Phase II of the Blenheim Centre, which will form an important link between Phase I of the Blenheim Centre and the High Street.
Phase I of the Blenheim Centre comprises 129,512 sq ft of retail, leisure healthcare and restaurant space, together with a 409-space car park in the basement, and is anchored by a 77,000-sq ft Asda superstore. It was purchased by LGP in 2010 and, where the previous owners left off, LGP is now working towards bringing forward the next phases of Hounslow, the town centre’s major redevelopment programme.
Simon Russian, head of retail development at Legal & General Property, said: “This project offers an excellent opportunity to deliver new shops, leisure facilities and public spaces that will help revitalise Hounslow Town Centre and create hundreds of new jobs for local people.
“We look forward to furthering our proposals as we continue our discussions on the scheme and develop our plans over the coming months in order to make it possible to bring forward a scheme that is not only financially viable but best serves the needs of the community and helps kick start the wider regeneration of the town centre.”
