Apartment developer Finbar International Ltd has secured another prime east-end development site in Perth through a joint venture with Malaysian investor Aun Heng Ng, owner of 122 Adelaide Terrace.
Plans for the 1,826 square metre site comprise a 10-storey building of 83 apartments and one commercial lot that are expected to generate combined sales revenue of $40 million.
Located opposite the Hyatt Hotel, the new apartment complex will sit adjacent to one of Finbar's latest residential projects, the 10-storey One28 development.
Finbar project executive director Richard Rimington said in a statement he was excited to secure another project in the east end of the city which was undergoing major renewal as a result of increasing residential development.
The joint venture deal will allow project manager Finbar to contribute half of the value of the land in working capital in exchange for receiving one-half of the development profit.
122 Adelaide Terrace is currently home to the two-storey Bible House, and was acquired by Mr Ng last year for $2.25 million.
Construction is expected to commence in July 2007 with forecast completion in 2009.
