The usual 12-month reporting period for SCN‘s annual CBD Guns runs from 1 April to 31 March. This year, we changed it to 1 March 2019 to 29 February 2020. We did this as the COVID-19 situation led to a number of variances across the nation during the month of March 2020; some centres traded with all stores open; others partially closed with even some closed or not trading for most of the month. March was a month with the industry, especially the CBD component, ‘all over the place’ and all coming to terms with it in different ways until some sort of uniformity was established.
This year, the list is also shorter than last year’s due to an almost unprecedented degree of redevelopment in CBDs. Sydney’s MLC Centre and Harbourside, as well as Perth’s City Central, Enex and Forrest Chase were development affected during the year.
