Regent st at a discount

This weeks Evening Standard interviewed Quintain Estates new CEO, Max James to discuss amongst other things the flagship regenerations of Wembley and Greenwhich.

The Standard reports “There have been big changes since, not least at Wembley, where Quintain owns 85 acres around the stadium. A new Hilton hotel has already opened. On the way is the London Designer Outlet, 80 retail units ready to open at the end of next year that aim to inject some bling into north-west London. Two residential Blocks and Brent Council’s new town centre hub will follow.”

“If Bicester Village is Bond Street at a discount, we are looking to create Regent Street at a discount,” James says proudly. “I think it will be the tipping point to the success of Wembley.”
