St Martin's Courtyard,
Covent Garden
Longmartin Properties Limited is 50% owned by Shaftesbury PLC, and has a long leasehold interest in the island site of almost two acres bounded by St Martin’s Lane, Long Acre, Shelton Street and Mercer Street. A major redevelopment of part of the site, to be known as St Martin’s Courtyard, is now underway.
The scheme is due for completion in November 2009 and will offer 25 new retail outlets totaling 65,000 sq.ft. and a choice of restaurants and bars totalling 30,000 sq.ft. Included in the mix will be 73,000 sq.ft. of premium office space and 33 apartments.
The main entrance into St Martin’s Courtyard will be from Long Acre along Slingsby Place, with two additional entrances on Upper St. Martin’s Lane and Mercer Street.
The first phase of the scheme will provide three retail units fronting Long Acre, which are due to be completed by July 2008. There will be an additional five enhanced stores on Long Acre. The main inner courtyard will be a space for the public to relax and enjoy alfresco dining served from adjoining restaurants.
