Schroders, LGP prepare Phase II of Bracknell project

The Bracknell Regeneration Partnership (BRP), a 50:50 joint venture between Schroders and Legal & General Property, has appointed London creative agency, Bostock and Pollitt, and independent construction and property consultancy, Gardiner & Theobald, to help pave the way for the next phase of Bracknell Town Centre’s major regeneration.

Bostock and Pollitt, whose recent projects include Cabot Circus in Bristol and LGP’s own Central Saint Giles scheme in London, has been appointed to work with BRP on its branding for the northern part of the town’s regeneration in order to help put Bracknell on the map as a high quality retail destination.

Similarly, Gardiner & Theobald has been appointed to lead the technical side of the next phase of development.

The appointments follow the completion of Phase One, which comprises a pre-let to Waitrose for a 36,000 sq ft (4,000 m2) supermarket, on a key site in the north-west of Bracknell’s Town Centre.

Simon Russian, head of Retail Development at Legal & General Property, said: 'We are currently in close discussion with a number of exciting national retailers regarding potential pre-lets and we look forward to making further announcements as and when it is appropriate to do so.'
