No relief is seen for CBD office supply any time soon.This is because the next office completion in the CBD will likely be 79 Robinson Road and Afro Asia i-Mark which are expected to provide some 0.7 million sq ft of office net lettable area in total only from 2020. The refurbished Chevron House could also return to the market in 2020.
