Developments on Regent Street
Regent Street is a unique international destination,
a world class environment that delivers quality, heritage,
style and success. It is a place for people, business
and shopping.
Regent Street represents the largest concentration of value
in The Crown Estate's portfolio. It is part of the
core of the Estate, both commercially and historically.
Over 10,000 people work on Regent Street. There are
over 700 small and medium sized businesses on the
street and over 150 retail and catering outlets.
In all there are some 450 direct customers who hold
leases from The Crown Estate.
All the property in Regent Street from Oxford Circus to
Piccadilly Circus is part of The Crown Estate. The existing
buildings in the street were developed in the 1920s and
as a result much of the retail and office accommodation
is in need of refurbishment.
