Property Advert of the Week: Zenith Apartments (2003)

In our main entry this week, I shared a newspaper advertisement associated with the opening of the Boulevard Hotel on William Street in 1973. 

The Boulevard Hotel continues to operate to this very day. Another hotel, located at the top of William Street, also opened in the 1970s. 

The hotel, known as Kingsgate and later the Hyatt Kingsgate, Hyatt and Millennium, opened in 1971. It operated until 2003, when it was closed to be converted into the Zenith Apartments, which were completed in 2005. 

Below is a 2003 newspaper advertisement promoting the sale of apartments, which commenced prior to their conversion into apartments.
