2007 Redevelopment

Despite being one of Sydney's premier shopping and retail centres, the new owners of Chatswood Chase proceeded with a large and extensive redevelopment, growing the centre’s gross lettable area by approximately 10,300 m². Total cost was around $185 million.

The Trust previously reported the acquisition of an adjoining office building at 19 Havilah Street in Chatswood and has since also secured an option to purchase the access lane to Chatswood Chase off Malvern Avenue to facilitate the proposed redevelopment.

This involved relocating Coles Supermarket into a larger retail area, undertaking a major extension to the lower ground retail space, the introduction of a new foodcourt, the addition of approximately 130 new car parking spaces and an upgrade to the Victoria Avenue entrance. Work on the expansion concluded in 2010.[2]
