West 12

Much to no one’s surprise at all the opening of the Westfield shopping complex has had a huge impact on local business. One of the hardest hit areas of business was local retail such as the shops located in West 12. However, let it not be said that unused space in London stays that for long. The Bush Theatre has utilised the space for double purpose. Kitted out with disused props from old productions, both a production in the form of Stovepipe and a bar called Unit 19 (so called for the actual space it occupies) have taken the space and well and truly made it their own. Located at West 12, The Broadway, Shepherds Bush W12 it would seem to tie in with the recession trend of  merging specialties and  it will be interesting to see how this one works out…
