It has been widely reported that the City Pride pub in Canary Wharf has been sold for £32 million for redevelopment. The site borders Young Group’s iconic 45 storey (459ft) residential development, The Landmark.
Neil Young, CEO of Property Portfolio Managers, Young Group, provides his thoughts on the press reports:
"We are aware of the City Pride transaction. This is good news for Canary Wharf as it demonstrates the continuing confidence in the area. The involvement of Lord Foster in looking at options for the site will ensure a level of quality that will complement The Landmark and further enhance the area’s reputation and property values.
"Currently, no planning application has been submitted relating to the site and our experience suggests that this project is some way from implementation. As a matter of course, the council’s planners take into account surrounding buildings as part of the planning consultation process before any approvals are granted. In any event, we feel that the values commanded by a quality development such as that being mooted in the press, will further support property values at The Landmark."
