Chinatown is at the heart of London’s
West End entertainment district,
next to Leicester Square, Piccadilly
Circus and Shaftesbury Avenue.
It has an exceptional concentration of restaurants
which offer a wide range of Chinese and East Asian
dining choices. The prosperity of this thriving
destination is underpinned by the large number of
visitors it attracts throughout the day, and into the
night, seven days a week, estimated at over 50
million annually. We are the dominant owner, with
holdings extending to 3.2 acres.

Soho is unique in its combination
of a flourishing day-time business
community and an important
evening and night-time economy.
By day, it offers a wide variety of independent, quirky
shops and is a hub for creativity with many small
businesses, typically in the media, tech and fashion
sectors. In the evening and night-time, its distinctive
atmosphere and exceptional choice of restaurants,
cafés, bars and clubs, together with nearby theatres,
create a popular destination for visitors as well as the
West End’s large working population. It has a large
residential community.
