We create today's modern real
estate.
In the late 1990s, we set about changing the business of Allied
London. Today, with the help of a very committed and experienced
team, the company has established a position at the very forefront
of urban development.
Through the application of determination and equal measure
of vision and ambition we are delivering some of the UK's
most complex inner city development projects.
A focused but innovative approach is applied to each location
with the ultimate goal of creating value. In practical terms,
this is achieved by repositioning a site through imaginative
development and redevelopment, or through state-of-the-art
refurbishment and change of use. All the company's schemes
– as well as its own business philosophy – reflect
the growing demands on cities to be dynamic, modern and sustainable
environments.
Allied London's heartland is complex city centre mixed-use
and retail redevelopment schemes, where it can work with private
and public sector organisations to deliver multi-faceted projects
that combine creative vision with commercial rigour.
The company currently has over 278,000 sq m (3 million sq
ft) of real estate under ownership or management. Current
development projects amount to in excess of a further 453,000
sq m (4.9 million sq ft), comprising office, retail, residential
and leisure uses including London – 77,000 sq m (829,000
sq ft), Manchester – 325,000 sq m (3.5 million sq ft)
and Glasgow – 51,000 sq m (550,000 sq ft).
Working with the public sector to deliver its development
is a significant part of Allied's business model.
In Manchester, our ambitions have come to fruition. Construction
has started on some 111,484 sq m (1.2 million sq ft) of the
278,709 sq m (3 million sq ft) Spinningfields masterplan.
Within just five years we have assembled the site for what
is Manchester's and indeed Europe's largest single city centre
development and we are now well on the way to creating the
new City centre quarter.
Our proposed development for The Brunswick in London's Bloomsbury,
due to start in the Autumn, and our Skypark project in Glasgow
are examples of a rare vision combined with ambition and a
lot of graft.
We appreciate and value our relationships, whether they be
with the occupiers of our buildings, our partners, our financiers,
our consultants and the communities in which we work, but
we are rigorous in our search for performance, as it is only
through this approach that we can deliver what we say we will
deliver.
