Chinese-backed Landbridge’s plans to build a six-star hotel across from the controversial Port of Darwin has been scuttled after the Northern Territory (NT) government refused to extend its lease.

The site is situated on prime waterfront land, adjacent to apartments and the Darwin cruise ship terminal.
