History

ALAND was established in 2002 by Andrew Hrsto. ALAND initially built apartment blocks in Sydney’s western suburbs and north shore regions. [2]

The company unveiled Paramount on Parkes, a development in Harris Park, adjacent to Sydney’s second-largest commercial district. [3] Designed by SJB Architects the 46-storey tower, which contains 331 apartments and six floors of commercial space, was named Best Mixed-Use Development Australia at the 2023 Asia Pacific International Property Awards. [4] ALAND has been a sponsor of the Parramatta Eels Rugby League team since 2018. [5] ALAND also provides scholarships each year for students at TAFE NSW. [6]

In 2022 the company acquired a building site in the city of Gosford, on the NSW Central Coast, and commissioned designs for a mixed-use development that combines residential apartments, restaurants and bars, a ground floor pub and a 130-room Voco® hotel. [7] [8] Construction on the $375 million project began in the first quarter of 2023 and is expected to be completed in early 2025. [9] Archibald by ALAND is named after Archibald Acheson, 2nd Earl of Gosford. Voco Gosford is the hotel brand’s second property in regional NSW and will join parent company IHG’s global network of hotels and resorts. [10]
