The sale of 30 Broadwick Street is the final achievement in an outstanding development project for GPE. Having secured planning permission in 2014, GPE commenced development speculatively in 2015 recognising the quality of the location and future demand for high quality office space in Soho. The property is now 100% let and the sale continues our strategy of recycling capital out of mature assets.
