Located along Singapore's premier shopping belt, Ngee Ann City sits on the one of the busiest strips of Orchard Road while commanding the lion's share of pedestrian traffic. The building's anchor tenant, Takashimaya Shopping Centre, is popular among tourists and Singaporeans alike.
Last June, REITSWEEK reported that Ngee Ann city has secured a renewal rent commitment for a period of 12 years from anchor tenant Toshin Development Singapore. The renewal rent of twelve years is for its Ngee Ann City property located along Orchard Road in which Toshin currently occupies all retail areas, except level five, as master tenant.
Units of Starhill Global REIT are currently trading unchanged from its previous closing day of S$0.885 on the Singapore Exchange.
Sloppy reporting. Even worse proof reading. Since when did Orchard Ion become part of CMT?
