“Heads up!”
Finding the right premises for your business is important, and you need to get it on terms that suit you, so how do you do that and what are the pitfalls to watch for?
Identifying some suitable commercial premises for your business is one of your first jobs. Once suitable premises have been found, the next stage is to agree the commercial terms on which your business will occupy those premises.
Lewis Craig 2015 Property Chef Runners Up
Our would be chefs, Ben Pistol and Theo Benedyk, narrowly missed out on victory at the DCL and Estates Gazette’s 17th annual cooking competition, held at Covent Garden’s Flesh & Buns restaurant. Having seen off competition from the leisure industry’s finest, our boys went head to head with Colliers Leisure team, in the final cook-off, making Flesh & Buns signature salmon teriyaki dish.
The contest put the teams through their paces in three heats – cocktail making, cooking and a quiz. A great time was had by all and although our best ever finish in this competition, a thorough review is yet to be held back at Wigmore Street to ensure that Lewis Craig take home top honours next year!
Fired Earth at Ascot
Acting on behalf of bespoke furniture specialists Woodstock, Lewis Craig have arranged for an assignment of the leasehold interest on their showroom premises in Winkfield Road, Ascot to Fired Earth Limited, part of the AGA Rangemaster Group Plc.
The premises, extending to just under 3,000 sq ft over ground and first floors along with a front courtyard area, occupy a prominent position in Winkfield Road at the junction of High Street.
An underground world beneath the streets of London
Lewis Craig recently had the pleasure of a meeting with Ajit Chambers founder of “The Old London Underground Company.” A former banker, Ajit is breathing new life into our disused Tube stations by unlocking the value of historic underground real estate that has largely been forgotten.
The Legacy Project details changes to 26 abandoned or relocated “Ghost Stations” on the London Underground that will allow them to operate as a public and private partnership and bring revenue into London’s economy.
Revamping London’s ghost tube stations
Lewis Craig are delighted to have been introduced to Ajit Chambers and this unique project. Richard Grossman, Managing Partner at Lewis Craig says “we are well positioned to advise on the retail and leisure aspects sharing the same goals as Ajit in helping London boost its economy. With demand for Central London leisure opportunities far outweighing supply, these stations provide innovative space opportunities for galleries, museums, restaurants, clubs, bars and a range of other uses.”
