McConnell, T.
Wild property - 2001 - Property Week 66(38) 21 September 2001, 38-42(5) .
A three-part guide looking at the steamier side of the property industry. Firstly, considers boxing-based fitness clubs for white collar workers - a new concept that is about to be brought to the UK from the US. Considers how successful the concept is likely to be in the UK, and looks at the emerging demand for suitable space for these clubs. Secondly, discusses table-dancing clubs, which have become the fastest growing sector of the UK leisure industry. Notes that table-dancing operators are actively searching for long-term leases on prime-located properties and are willing to pay large sums to get them. Contends that table-dancing has improved its image, and even gained a respected reputation in the leisure market. Finally, describes how Britain's first cannabis cafe opened for business in Stockport, Manchester, in September 2001, but was promptly shut-down, just 90 minutes later.
