The vision is to transform Chatswood Chase into a modern and iconic destination with luxury retailing, experiential dining, a new fresh food market hall. Building on Vicinity’s position as Australia’s leader in luxury retailing, plans for the new luxury retail precinct features a mix of the best Australian and international designers carefully curated to match the aspirations of our customers and community.​

To deliver the exciting transformation of Chatswood Chase, major redevelopment and reconfiguration works need to be undertaken. We understand that this will cause disruption and we are taking all steps we can to minimise this. ​

We are committed to working with and supporting our retailers to assist with driving visitation to Chatswood Chase during redevelopment.

Construction is well underway with staggered store openings commencing from November through to later in 2024. Construction for the main retail transformation project is set to commence on 15 March 2023 and is expected to be completed at the end of 2025.​

Chatswood Chase will remain open and operating throughout the planning and construction periods. We will ensure disruption is kept to a minimum.​

The new fresh food and dining offer on the centre's lower ground level will remain open and trading throughout the redevelopment of the retail centre. Different retailers are subject to different trading hours. New retailers will open in stages from November 2023 through to the end of 2024. One level of David Jones will also remain open.

We are working with all impacted businesses on a case-by-case basis and will work closely with them to ensure a smooth transition. ​

For some retailers, this will be the case. We work closely with impacted retailers to provide as much time as possible for them to plan their future opportunities.

We are excited about our plans to transform Chatswood Chase into the leading retail and lifestyle destination for Sydney’s north shore.

In November 2023, Vicinity announced that is has acquired the remaining 49% interest of Chatswood Chase, from GIC. Vicinity’s Board.

This purchase enables Vicinity to proceed with its vision to transform Chatswood Chase into a modern and iconic destination with luxury retailing, experiential dining, a new fresh food market hall as well as ~3,500sqm of multi-use space elevated above the retail centre at level 3.

Early works have commenced to prepare for full scale construction in March 2024 with works expected to be completed by the end of 2025.

Work is well underway to deliver the lower ground floor - a new, premium fresh food precinct and market hall, complemented by new restaurants and cafes within a new dining precinct. Store openings will be staggered, and we have introduced a number of new retailers since November 2023.

Early works are already underway to prepare for the retail redevelopment with full mobilisation on site from 15 March 2024.
