COLLIERS International has been appointed to sell the former ABC headquarters in Brisbane, by tender.
The waterfront site on Coronation Drive in Toowong, comprises 15,000 sqm parcel of land.
Colliers International’s Jeff Dolan and Pat George, said the ABC land was the best inner-city development site in Brisbane.
“The national broadcaster’s former headquarters on the Brisbane River is expected to draw huge interest both locally and internationally.
“This is the most keenly anticipated campaign in the Brisbane market over recent years and we expect great interest in this exceptional site,” Dolan said.
“Having a north easterly facing aspect with over 120 metres of frontage to the Brisbane River providing uninterrupted river and city views – where else can you purchase a 15,000 sqm site within 4kms of the CBD,” he added.
The ABC relocated from the site in 2007 and in December last year announced it will build new studios in Brisbane’s South Bank precinct. In December 2007, the broadcaster moved out of the Toowong complex after 16 women were diagnosed with breast cancer.
