Tiffany & Co. proposed new Sydney flagship store

Dexus (Dexus) today announced that it has lodged a Development Application (DA) for a new Tiffany & Co. flagship store at 175 Pitt Street, Sydney positioning the international luxury jeweller in what is set to be Australia’s ultimate luxury shopping precinct, and activating an exciting city retail development opportunity in Dexus’s portfolio.

Tiffany & Co. intends to expand its footprint to cover 2,275 square metres of office and retail space upon relocating to the proposed three-storey flagship store at 175 Pitt Street in late 2018. This deal will see Dexus retain Tiffany & Co. in its portfolio after the acquisition of 39 Martin Place by Transport for NSW for a new Sydney Metro station.

Stewart Hutcheon, Dexus Executive General Manager, Retail and New Fund Development said: “We have worked collaboratively with Tiffany & Co. on this proposal, and if approved we look forward to continuing our long term relationship. The proposal potentially activates an identified repositioning opportunity within our city retail portfolio which will add significant prominence to the central Sydney luxury retail precinct.”

“This would mark an exciting new journey of the Tiffany & Co. brand in Australia. We have enjoyed over 22 years of successful growth in Australia, and Sydney is an important market for Tiffany globally. The new flagship will be a world-famous centre for luxury, style and sophistication that is synonymous with New York,” said Glen Schlehuber, vice president and managing director of Tiffany & Co. Australia and New Zealand.

Under the proposal with Dexus, Tiffany & Co. would transition to a temporary store within this new location and a temporary office at 60 Castlereagh Street from late 2017 until the proposed new flagship opens in 2018.
