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]
