Built in 1965 and situated at the top end of the pedestrian precinct, the department store was converted into a shopping centre in 2002 and leased to several prestigious tenants. When an anchor tenant moved out, the owner – an international closed-end property fund – ran into financial difficulties and was no longer able to service the outstanding loan.
