Anthea Harries joins as head of assets at north London site
King鈥檚 Cross developer Argent has nabbed Anthea Harries from The Crown Estate to become its new head of assets at its 67-acre scheme.
Her new role will encompass the management of King鈥檚 Cross鈥檚 80 shops, 3.4 million sq ft of office space and nearly 2,000 homes as Argent looks to build on the area鈥檚 success.
Prior to joining Argent she spent nearly seven years at The Crown Estate, where she started as portfolio manager for its 拢2.2bn St James portfolio in London鈥檚 West End in March 2011, which has undergone a 拢500m transformation over the last few years.
She was promoted last year as head of its St James portfolio and the rest of its central London portfolio, valued at 拢470m.
Harries also worked at British Land for 10 years on its West End and City portfolios.
Last month, Argent put in a planning application for its latest office building at King鈥檚 Cross. The three storey 4,323sq m building designed by Coffey Architects will provide retail and leisure space at the ground floor with the other two levels given over to office space.
