Pictures: A sneak peek at huge Melbourne Square development
Designs for stage one of the huge Melbourne Square development at Southbank have been unveiled.
Construction on the mixed-use precinct, which will feature six residential and commercial towers and is expected to cost $2.8 billion, is expected to begin this month, with the $500 million first stage to be completed by 2020.
Also part of the project is a 3700sqm public park, which will sit alongside the towers and their surrounding car parks.
The development has been designed by Cox Architecture, with developer OSK Property appointing Multiplex to build the first stage earlier this month.
The two residential towers being constructed as part of stage one will be home to a staggering 1043 apartments.
When it’s completed, the entire project will have four residential towers, a hotel, a commercial tower and a supermarket.
