Hamilton developer Matt Stark says he is in no rush to find a tenant for one of the city centre’s largest remaining development sites, as he searches for a major occupier for the former Federated Farmers block.
The Stark Property director outlined his vision for the Tristram and London Street site - touted as one of the largest commercial land sales in the central city - to attendees on a behind the fence tour of their adjoining Fonterra office development on Thursday.
The landholding, purchased by Stark Property in April 2025, includes the six-storey Farmer Trust building, existing tenanted buildings, car-parks, and vacant land.
“We don’t really have many large parcels of land left in the city, so we thought it was a great option to buy this,” Stark said.
He said the Waikato Farmers Trust building, first opened in 1968, would be getting a face lift to meet demand for refurbished space in the central city.
