Considering the parties involved there has to be several levels of irony in this story.

I'm guessing grendull won't have an opinion on this.

So Higgs are effectively paying a few million for the leasehold of a relatively small old building. The Ricoh leasehold must be worth a fortune.

No irony at all its been empty for 20 years if Sisu are willing to wait 20 years and no one uses it perhaps they can get the Ricoh for free

Think before you speak. They already have permission for a quarter of that. Don't go giving them any ideas

It also illustrates how CCC will work with people/businesses to develop sites that are otherwise dormant if they put forward "viable business plans and ideas".

One of the reasons CCC don't trust SISU with the Ricoh, they have not offered a plan as to how they would develop the area.
