Gateway Barnet has been identified as reserve bidder.

The Brent Cross South scheme will provide 7,500 homes and space for over 20,000 jobs, supported by a new Thameslink station on the site. This is on top of 3,000 new jobs created by the redevelopment of the shopping centre. The scheme already has outline planning permission as part of the wider Brent Cross Cricklewood development.

The recommendation will go before the Council's Assets Regeneration and Growth Committee on 3 March before ultimate ratification from Barnet Council.
