James Fogarty, Vice President of Starwood Capital Group commented: "Starwood Capital Group is pleased to continue its targeted investment strategy in Australia, an economy we believe is underpinned by strong fundamentals that drive further strength in the Greater Sydney office market. We like the North Shore office market, and Chatswood in particular given the limited supply, robust demand and transformative infrastructure improvements that are underway. The Zenith is a landmark within the Chatswood market and has strong appeal to tenants across a range of sectors and provides high quality space to users at a competitive price point." Kurt Wilkinson, Partner Arrow Capital Partners said "The Zenith in Chatswood is the second Sydney acquisition with Starwood in the last year. The Zenith is the premier A grade asset in Chatswood, is on a uniquely large landholding, and is underpinned by a high quality tenant base in a market with strong fundamentals. We intend to inject further capital and asset management expertise to enhance the offering to our tenants and ensure that the Zenith remains the standout office asset in the Chatswood office market."
