“I believe this is one of Nottingham’s finest buildings and is one that FHP have had a long track record with. I acquired the store for All Saints in 2005 and within 30 seconds of the then MD being in the store, he pronounced ‘This unit is absolutely fantastic, it has all the characteristics that we are trying to create for the All Saints brand and we must have it!’
It is a unit that All Saints are proud of and certainly one of the most striking retail units within the city. It is also one of Nottingham’s most famous buildings, designed by Watson Fothergill and constructed between 1877 and 1882, it was built by Thomas Fish & Sons on behalf of The Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Bank.”
Purchasers, Avignon Capital Limited, are a UK and European Property Investment and Asset Management company, currently managing assets across UK, Denmark, Germany and Poland, including the flagship Louis Vuitton store in Copenhagen, Denmark.
