Breton prices for the apartments have not been fixed yet. Some of the apartments will be for sale from £250,000. The remainder will be for letting. Regards Vista

Liz the builders were checked and double checked and triple checked - this was before the recession. They are unfortunately another casualty of the recession which seems to have hit the building industry particularly hard. Their demise is unfo…

Our builders have gone into administration - another casualty of this recession. We are negotiating with new builders and work on the development will hopefully resume in the next few weeks. Rest assured the devlopment will be completed - abeit a…

We are very close to appointing an agent and will keep you all posted. All your contributions have been fanatastic. The community is very lucky to have such a great crowd contributing to the welfare of the area. I do not have the faintest idea of…

Joe I could not agree more about the car wash, however, I am hoping that given time that will be developed too into something more interesting
-
David I agree Fish and chips can cause terrible smells for anyone living above. We have, however, spent a lot of time addressing the problem with huge ventilation shafts to carry cooking smells away from the apartments. Toffs is a quality …

Colette No it isn't me in the photo - Im more like Brad Pit or at least like his brother Cess) The interview with Islington Gazette was meant to bring some interest and to help reignite the once upon a time plans for further development

There seems to be arguements for and against chains and independents. From my perspective I do not want to attract anything which will not enhance the site. I have luxury apartments above these units and must be mindful that I do not degrade thei…

All cod can can give a sigh of relief because at the moment it does not look as though Toffs is coming to Finsbury Park. I am engaging an agent to deal with the letting in the next few days. Regards Vista

Bridget - Sainsbury Local is not such a bad idea. Supermarkets are amongst the few expanding and creating employment in this economic climate, catering for the stay at home culture. How about a decent fish and chips????? I have a meeting with To…

Harvey Nichols Finsbury Park......now there is a novel idea. Perhaps Al Fayed is sick to death of the extortionist rents in Knightsbridge.

Hasn't anyone else noticed that since the onset of snow the depressing headlines about the recession have disappeared? One could almost be forgiven for thinking that the recession is over. Headlines are now dominated by the white stuff. Long may…

Beek I believe the old property was at one time a cinema, but many years ago. In the latter years it was used for clothing manufacturing.

Ok the large water filled hole outside the entrance to the site is down to the water board so afraid we cannot touch it Regards Vista

Andy you are quite right. To go from A3 to other use is easy but to go from retail to A3 needs planning......thats why we obtained A3 as a starting point. As I have said before thanks to the recession I have no idea where the interest will be at …

Mujo Hi The development is due for completion September 2009 (if builders keep their word) There will be 7 apartments for Social Housing (they will have their own entrance and elavator on the north side of the building) There will be 27 pri…

Ginger Monkey You are right......I do have to consider who will be successful and who has the finacial clout to take on expansion in today's market.This sadly does not allow me to follow what I would like to see but I am trying to be mindful of a…

Ed I am doing my best to find an agent who shares the same vision for the site. Unfortunately this is not very easy in today's credit crunch market

Forget the cinema Basement ceiling height is just 2.4 metres and the ground floor around 3.2 metres. The slab seperating the ground floor and basement is structural - remove that and the top floor will end up in the basement. Not recommended. …

David At present the plans are for restaurant, probably one larger one and one smaller one. Whoever goes in must utilise the basement area which is more likely to be a restaurant (kitchens and seating can be in the basement area as well as the…

One of the main problems with Stroud Green Road is that it is almost exclusively made up of small independant shops and restaurants. The only main players are Nandos, Tesco and Lidl. Therefore more upmarket or main stream companies are reluctant …

Andy why didn't I think of that??????
-
Thank you for your ideas - Please keep them coming Unaesthetic as far as loud music is concerned thats a no no. We have to consider the residents in the apartments above.
-
Dear Everyone Given that the development is being undertaken in a recession when many are reluctant to expand their businesses, we will to a large extent be dictated to by the demand created at the time of marketing. I would have however welcome …

Dear Poxy Thank you for pointing out outdated tube map. I have replaced with an updated one

Mark The new building has been designed especially to try and combat the problem of graffiti which plagued the original building. We have designed the pillars and support sections of the building to be on the inside behind the glass front - hope…
