Article Abstract:
The property sector in the north London borough of Barnet has experienced some difficulties over recent years, but now seems to be recovering. A number of multiple retailers have remained there, and the 860,000 sq ft Brent Cross shopping centre is also being refurbished, adding 65,000 sq ft. In the borough of Enfield, most demand for property is coming from storage and distribution companies. However, take-up in the industrial sector has improved over recent months.

Article Abstract:
There is now renewed optimism in the property sector in London's Docklands area, with Barclays de Zoete Wedd and Morgan Stanley both having agreed to take space there recently. However, there is still more than 18 million sq ft of office space planned, and some observers believe that no further office development should take place. In the boroughs of Newham and Tower Hamlets, the property industry is expected to benefit from regeneration initiatives.
