A unique “flexible multi-zone” solution to provision of private open space is proposed for the apartments, to meet with the City Plan requirement for provision of private open space while responding to purchaser expectations for space that is usable all year round, in all weather, with minimal maintenance and cleaning.

According to the development application, the flexible multi-zone concept ensures provision of private open space with full access to sunlight, breezes and fresh air, while also mitigating draw backs of traditional balconies in the inner city / near CBD environment.

A large full floor landscaped communal open space will be provided to the top of the podium. Level 5 is dedicated to residents for communal open space with a range of landscaping and activities including:

  • A central astro turf green with stepper pathway
  • A lap pool and heated spa
  • Expansive dining and entertaining areas including bar space and a range of seated areas
  • Screening trees, shrubs and groundcovers to maintain privacy from neighbouring developments
  • Trailing vines which extend down the façade of the podium to soften the appearance to the street
  • A dog park
  • Shared gardens

The communal open space level is proposed to offset the lack of deep planting on the site, which is not achieved due to the irregular narrow shape of the allotment and the three road frontages. In addition to the landscaped outdoors communal open space areas, Level 5 also proposes shared communal indoor areas including:

  • A gym
  • Function rooms
  • Amenities associated with the swimming pool, gym and the spa;
  • A music room
  • A library

Over the last 8 years, Fish Lane has undergone massive change with recent developments by Aria Group, with Fish Lane Town Square and Arts Precinct transorming the laneway from a standard vehicular access route to an active pedestrian and retail precinct which links West End to South Bank.

    I am all for development but this seem poorly planned. Potential of 416 resident with only 231 car parks and ONLY 11 visitor. This is going to create parking chaos in the area with illegal parking in every resident building in the area for visitors.of this building. It will also further add to the share ride traffic, if there is not a designated pick up spot. Merivale is fast becoming over crowded I can see traffic becoming a big issue in the area.

    Another building with a dead car park podium. Podium car parks are supposed to be wrapped with actual uses (e.g. offices or apartments) under the local plan, but this is routinely ignored by BCC in favour of fake movie-set facades. Our streetscape are less lively and have less “eyes on the street” to prevent crime because of it.

    Too close to the The Melbourne Apartments. With only a oneway street between them would be able to clearly see in apartments – no privacy.
    This Fish Lane is already busy enough with no street parking in the area.
    Not to mention would block the whole view of the Melbourne apartments that side.

    It’s very nice design but it’s really too close to the other apartment. Literally you can see what’s people doing in the apartment! Two apartments sharing the same road to entry and exit the apartments. It’s already always very busy. It will cause more traffic! Can’t imagine when the apartment is done. Very bad location for another apartment!

    I am certainly glad I sold my apartment at The Melbourne, even though it was on the Southern side. I always found the Melbourne rooftop very cold, but it was assisted by the northern sun. These apartments will shade the Melbourne rooftop for much of the day except in mid-summer. And the apartments will look straight into each other.
    Also, as Dylan said, there is definitely not enough parking. Fish Lane will be chaos, unless the drive access is off Cordelia and onto Merivale.
    The pool being on the lower podium level rather than the rooftop is a good idea.
