“Whiteleys was a shopping centre in Bayswater, London, currently owned by Meyer Bergman and CC Land. It was built in the retail space of the former William Whiteley Limited department store, which opened in 1911 as London's first department store, and was one of the main department stores, alongside Selfridge's, Liberty's and Harrods. The centre's main entrance was located on Queensway. In December 2018, Whiteleys was closed for redevelopment. It is due to be converted into a Norman Foster-designed mixed-use asset comprising condominium apartments, a Six Senses hotel, and retail units on the ground floor.” (Whiteleys, Wikipedia)
