"Rob Tincknell, chief executive of Battersea Power Station Development Company, said:

"It’s been like the start of the Harrods sale. It really has been phenomenal. We had people queuing from 6.30am on Thursday, and the London allocation sold out in days."

"By the time the sales centre at the riverside site closed on Saturday afternoon, 600 buyers, from City bankers to a former power station worker, had written out cheques. Buyers have to pay a £2,500 booking fee, followed by 10 per cent of the purchase price on exchange, which has to be within four weeks."

[To be fair, Battersea does PR spin much better

than Hammerson with Brent Cross Cricklewood.]
