We understand what makes communities successful

We use that understanding and insight to create productive places. We put people at the heart of what we’re doing, wherever we go. We nurture places from inception to maturity or we create the opportunity for others to do so, building value every step of the way.

Sustainable change

With a portfolio of mixed-use regeneration projects in London, the south-east, Manchester and Dublin we are bringing imagination and innovation to some of the most exciting opportunities in the property market. By bringing together financial strength and commercial acumen, a commitment to the highest standards of design and architecture and a careful curation of place and history, we enable long-term, sustainable change and deliver value for our diverse stakeholder groups.

Creative infrastructure

Mixed-use regeneration development is at the heart of our business. We focus on driving shareholder value from a creative approach to place making and community building. This ability to create places that deliver sustainable socio-economic growth also fuels our specialism in public private partnership projects (PPP) with local authorities and other public bodies. Our PPP schemes in the London boroughs of Bromley, Lewisham, Lambeth and Greenwich and in towns like Lichfield and Sittingbourne are opening up opportunities for local authorities to deliver economic growth and new public service infrastructure in an era of restrained public spending. Our £200 million investment portfolio forms a core part of our activities, allowing us to mature assets over the long-term and feed our regeneration pipeline with income-producing properties that have yet to be fully developed.
