127 Charing Cross Road - Planning Permission Granted for Three Floor Extension RDI REIT P.L.C. ("RDI" or the "Company") (Incorporated in the Isle of Man) (Registered number 010534V) LSE share code: RDI JSE share code: RPL ISIN: IM00BH3JLY32 LEI: 2138006NHZUMMRYQ1745 127 CHARING CROSS ROAD – PLANNING PERMISSION GRANTED FOR THREE FLOOR EXTENSION RDI, the income focused UK-REIT, is pleased to announce that it has received a resolution to grant planning permission to deliver a significant extension at 127 Charing Cross Road, London. The permission will provide for a 47 per cent increase in the overall area of the property to 56,576 sq ft through the development of an additional three floors of office space and an improved reception. The scheme has been designed with an impressive ground floor arrival, efficient floorplates, natural light on three sides, a number of private terraces and a communal roof terrace. The building is currently fully let and is anticipated to remain occupied until 2021. The property is extremely well located, approximately 150 metres from the new Tottenham Court Road Crossrail station. The area benefits from large scale infrastructure investment and mixed-use development activity, whilst only a short walk from Soho, Covent Garden and Trafalgar Square. This wholesale regeneration, combined with strong transport access, is attracting high levels of pre-letting activity of neighbouring office developments at record rental levels demonstrating the strong occupier demand for the location. Adrian Horsburgh, Property Director at RDI, commented: "This is a fantastic result, which provides us with the opportunity to significantly enhance the size of the property without undertaking a complete redevelopment. Recent pre-lettings in the area have been achieved at record rental levels and with momentum building towards the opening of Crossrail in 2021 and other surrounding regeneration activity moving towards completion, we believe this property will be very well positioned to capitalise on the growing attraction of this prime area of London."
