JLL’s Josh Rutman, MingXuan Li, Michael Godfrey and Peter Harper have been exclusively appointed to sell Level 88, known as Eureka Skydeck, one of the highest observation decks in the Southern Hemisphere; Level 89 occupied as a high-end restaurant & event space ‘Eureka 89’ and Part Ground Floor retail situated in the Eureka Tower at 7 Riverside Quay, Southbank via a formal Expressions Of Interest campaign on behalf of Journey Beyond.
Journey Beyond will continue to occupy the Part Ground Floor retail and both upper Levels on an initial 20-year lease with a commencing rental of approximately $3.3 million and fixed annual rental increases, providing cash flow certainty. Journey Beyond is a leading Australian tourism and hospitality operator with numerous iconic brands including The Ghan, Indian Pacific, Outback Spirit Tours and Horizontal Falls Seaplane Adventures.
Mr Rutman said, “This iconic Melbourne investment opportunity presents an X Factor that will attract worldwide attention and will draw comparisons to other prestigious top floor offerings around the world. As one of the highest public observation decks and restaurants in the Southern Hemisphere, Eureka Tower offers highly functional floor plates with floor to ceiling windows taking advantage of unparalleled 360-degree views of Melbourne. The dedicated lift access from ground floor retail to Level 88 is an important feature in a post COVID-19 environment. This allows Levels 88 & 89 to be an independent, self-contained space which can be used exclusively, providing additional security and privacy.”
Mr Harper said, “The security of a long-term lease will be well received in the market. Journey Beyond is Australia’s pre-eminent, experienced based tourism and hospitality operator and we believe that the long triple net lease and strong tenant covenant will be attractive to a wide range of purchaser groups including passive investors, SMSFs and high net worth individuals.”
Journey Beyond CEO, Mr Chris Tallent said, “Journey Beyond is the leading provider of experiential tourism in Australia, offering unique and immersive journeys and experiences in the most iconic destinations across every State and Territory. The Eureka Skydeck and Eureka 89 are two high performing assets in our portfolio with over 500,000 visitors annually and we have a number of exciting initiatives under development for the Eureka Skydeck, due for completion in Mid-2021.”
Mr Rutman said, “Eureka Tower is a Melbourne icon and a nationally recognised development. There is no doubt that this is one of the most unique opportunities to come to market. The opportunity to own significant Part Ground Floor retail and Levels 88 & 89 in what is one of the highest developments in the Southern Hemisphere will attract national and international interest.”
Southbank’s largest ever strata sale was transacted by JLL in 2020. Melbourne Square Shopping Centre located at 93-119 Kavanagh Street, is approximately just 450 metres from Eureka Tower. The Woolworths anchored shopping centre was sold for $70 million, on an initial yield of 4.37 percent and was acquired by Primewest.
