The Watermark Bookstore will be Europe's first, and is a breakthrough for LS travel retail
UK. LS travel retail UK & Ireland, which yesterday announced its return to the UK rail market with a store at London’s Cannon Street station, today revealed the planned opening of another rail outlet, at the redeveloped King’s Cross station. The 100sq m unit will house the first Watermark Bookstore in Europe. [Click here for the full list of tenancies at King's Cross].

Fin Casey, Managing Director of LS travel retail UK & Ireland, said: “I am delighted that we are continuing to grow our relationship with Network Rail with this significant new opening at King’s Cross.

“We are always keen to bring new experiences to the travel retail market and are especially excited to launch our proven Watermark Bookstore concept into Europe for the first time. The new Watermark Bookstore will be adapted from the successful store concept operated by our sister companies in the Pacific and North America, and we are confident that it will set a new benchmark experience for the category.”
