seasons greetings!
As 2017 draws to a close it has been another year for landmark deals, many of which we have been privileged to be involved with.
Whilst a whiff of uncertainty still prevails transactions have increased, particularly in the industrial sector where freehold deals are setting new price levels.
Blackburn and Burnley town centres have undergone transformation this year with new infrastructure and developments commencing, notably Cathedral Quarter in Blackburn and Vision Park, Burnley. Equally important in both cases is the boost to the night time economy with several new food and drink outlets reshaping the traditional high street.
Of equal significance is the commencement of development at Frontier Park, J6, M65 by Monte (Blackburn) Limited. A 185,000 sq. ft. unit will be ready for occupation in the Autumn of 2018 alongside a new hotel, conference centre, petrol filling station and food outlets.
Collaboration between the public and private sector is the new model and is delivering results.
Seasons greetings.
