	The Crossing at St Paul's This £2.3m project took 7 years to realise, working from a low level of expectation locally and a divided political situation. However, having convinced the heritage sector that the conversion of this Grade II* listed church as feasible and appropriate, Peter White wrote the business plan and prepared funding bids which eventually attracted the necessary capital from a variety of sources to enable the project to be self financing from the start.

	The Argent Centre, Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham This scheme was initiated at the height of the early 80’s recession. The market was so depressed that although it took 18 months to acquire the building, no other bid was received by the vendors in that time and the 43,000 sq ft building was eventually purchased for £90,000. Parts had not been properly occupied for many years and at that time, it was considered highly doubtful that a market existed for the upper floor accommodation.
