<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/capital-corporation">Capital Corporation</a> has announced that its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/lovedale-farm-1054-1184-wine-country-drive-lovedale-nsw-2325">Lovedale Farm</a> residential, resort and golf project has secured $24.6 million in sales in just three weeks since the opening of its display home, underscoring the appetite for premium lifestyle property in the Hunter Valley countryside.

The sales milestone has been driven by a diverse mix of buyers, including owner-occupiers and investors from Sydney, Newcastle and the local Hunter region, purchasing both land-only lots and house and land packages across the development.

&nbsp;

The result builds on the momentum generated at the display home opening on 22 March, which attracted more than 460 attendees.

With house and land pricing from $1.14 million, Lovedale Farm continues to attract strong interest from buyers seeking a premium lifestyle offering at a compelling price point. The development’s vision, a championship golf course, future epicurean village and access to the Hunter Valley’s celebrated wine country, has resonated with a broad buyer profile, from first-time investors to those looking to make the move and call the Hunter Valley home.

Jim Hunter, Managing Director of Capital Corporation said the response since opening the display home has been encouraging.

"To reach $24.6 million in sales in just three weeks speaks to the genuine demand for a lifestyle community of this calibre in the Hunter Valley," Hunter says.

"We’re seeing buyers from across the region and beyond, including investors who recognise the long-term value, and owner-occupiers who simply want to live somewhere truly special.

“Lovedale Farm is two decades in the making, and the market’s response is everything we hoped for. We’re excited to see these first buyers become part of the Lovedale Farm story from the very beginning."

&nbsp;

Spanning 240 hectares on Wine Country Drive in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/lovedale-nsw-2325">Lovedale</a>, the $1 billion development is expected to deliver around 1,250 jobs during construction and inject more than $300 million into the local economy. The first 200 homes and championship 18-hole golf course are anticipated for completion in late 2027.

Capital Corporation has also lodged development plans for the Lovedale Farm clubhouse, set to become a vibrant hub for residents and the wider Hunter Valley community. Further releases are planned for later this year.

Lovedale Farm display home opening triggers $24.6 million in sales in three weeks

Prominent Malaysian developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/osk-property">OSK Property</a> has unveiled <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/aura-at-melbourne-square-7-hoff-boulevard-southbank-vic-3006">Aura</a>, the next stage of its $3.5 billion Melbourne Square precinct in Southbank, continuing its push into wellness-led, amenity-rich apartment living.

The $800 million tower, planned for 7 Hoff Boulevard, will rise 67 storeys and deliver 673 apartments, with COX Architecture drawing on both Japanese design principles and Australia’s natural landscape to shape the building’s identity. A rectangular grid aesthetic defines the building’s exterior, with COX drawing design cues from New York high-rises and Tokyo’s skyline.

Aura builds on a growing trend in high-density living, where wellness is no longer an add-on but central to the product. The development is structured around four key pillars, combining calm, minimalist residences with layered communal spaces, landscaped gardens, and a suite of wellness amenities designed to support both physical and mental wellbeing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367465]

At the core of the project is what OSK describes as a vertical wellness ecosystem, a multi-level approach to amenity that integrates health, lifestyle, and social spaces throughout the building rather than confining them to a single level.

The main resident hub, the Aura Club on level seven, will include a pool, cold plunge, spa, gym, Pilates and yoga studios, alongside more lifestyle-driven inclusions like a golf simulator, music rooms, library, and work-from-home spaces. Above, a series of higher-level amenity zones, including the Meridian Club and Cumulus Club, introduce more refined, social and retreat-style environments, with private dining, lounges, and premium wellness spaces positioned to take advantage of city views.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367467]

The residences themselves will largely include balconies, a key design move in a market increasingly focused on natural light, airflow, and connection to the outdoors. Views will extend across the CBD, the Arts Precinct, Royal Botanic Gardens, and beyond.

Aura also introduces approximately 1,600 sqm of retail across the lower levels, further activating the Melbourne Square precinct, which already includes Kennedy Park, a Woolworths, childcare, and a growing mix of hospitality operators.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367474]

“Aura stands tall as an exemplar of holistic wellness – its focus on social, physical and mental health culminate in a building that is calming, restorative and relaxing, where residents will have their own sanctuary within the well-connected and sought-after <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/southbank-vic-3006">Southbank</a>," says&nbsp;OSK Property CEO Chong Boon Woon.

“We have been very encouraged by the market’s response to the BLVD offering, and we know there is a strong demand for the level of amenity, service and design that the Melbourne Square precinct is known for.

“Complemented by work-from-home lounges for professionals, family friendly outdoor garden spaces, and state-of-the-art fitness and wellness facilities, Aura will continue our focus on maximising physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing,” he said.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367475]

The project follows the strong performance of BLVD, which is now around 80 per cent sold, and reinforces OSK Property’s long-term commitment to Melbourne Square as a fully integrated, mixed-use precinct.

Construction is expected to commence in late 2026.

OSK unveils AURA, the latest stage in Southbank's $3.5 billion Melbourne Square precinct

National developer Time &amp; Place appears to have settled on a design for its long-anticipated Potts Point project.

After several years of back and forth with local council and the NSW Government, the developer, which has spent seven years targeting the former The Chimes site on Macleay Street, has now progressed its plans.

Following a concept design submission last year by SJB, Time &amp; Place has lodged a full State Significant Development Application with the NSW Government, this time for a scheme designed by Kerry Hill Architects.

<img alt="Time &amp; Place" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="504d2a27-d65f-4227-8189-1e35e3376e62" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-04-20%20at%209.38.24%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=_XqFKATYHF30KnVByPxhaI9UBzmkmfn7" />

The 16-storey proposal includes 44 apartments, 21 of which will be build-to-sell. These will comprise 19 three-bedroom apartments and two four-bedroom units.

More than 50 per cent of the development will be dedicated to affordable housing, with 23 studio apartments to be delivered in line with the NSW Government’s Housing SEPP.

Kerry Hill Architects said the proposal is driven by a strong response to place.

“Our proposal for a new residential building for Potts Point in Sydney is driven by a deep consideration of place,” the practice said in its submission.

“This operates on multiple levels, including a landscape approach that reinstates endemic flora of the Sydney peninsula and provides a ground-floor garden for residents, reconnecting the site to its pre-European history. A brick podium further strengthens this relationship to context, integrating planting and fine bronze detailing that references the predominant material language of Macleay Street.”

The three-level podium will be topped by a communal resident space, featuring a covered pool designed to receive direct afternoon sun in winter, a neighbouring reflection pool, dining and event areas oriented to maximise sunset views, and an outdoor exercise zone.

<img alt="Time &amp; Place" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="8d3eedc1-babb-44a3-bd96-d8a42f3adf1f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-04-20%20at%209.37.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=Ii7.4dvqNatu5GQi6bhqNjAswrMB998." />

The design also incorporates highly crafted shopfronts and a clearly defined residential entry to activate the street. Juliette balconies to the podium residences will provide passive surveillance and a strong sense of habitation.

Above, the larger apartments are housed within a light-coloured masonry and bronze tower.

“The tower steps back in a series of gently curved volumes that reference the rich Art Deco context of Macleay Street,” the architects said. “Carefully calibrated vertical fins frame the views while providing privacy and a sense of refuge.”

<img alt="Time &amp; Place" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="6fab60f4-3140-4469-b47a-48c781e0a30b" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-04-20%20at%209.28.44%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=e5XxrM3kzdASdKlcIACHAHbOSZhSKC9O" />

Time &amp; Place has been one of the most active developers nationally in the last 12 to 24 months. Late last year they completed&nbsp;The Queensbridge in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/southbank-vic-3006">Southbank</a>, a mixed-use tower with 353 apartments and a hotel. They are currently selling Park Modern, 246 apartments near the famous Botanic Gardens in South Melbourne.

The developer has approval for The Burke, a mixed-use project in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/glen-iris-vic-3146">Glen Iris</a>&nbsp;being delivered in partnership with Woolworths. The 60 apartments, positioned above a new Woolworths supermarket, are expected to launch in the coming months. Time &amp; Place is also progressing plans for the redevelopment of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/northcote-vic-3070">Northcote</a>&nbsp;Plaza, and have recently submitted plans for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/vic/time-place-unveils-plans-22-storey-south-melbourne-tower">22-storey tower</a>, another in South Melbourne.

In&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/sydney-nsw">Sydney</a>, the developer has two projects in Manly: Two Tides, which is currently under construction, and an ultra high-end building on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/shoreline-manly-beach-89-90-north-steyne-manly">North Steyne</a>, fronting the beach. It is also continuing to work through the redevelopment of The Chimes building on Macleay Street in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/potts-point-nsw-2011">Potts Point</a>, as well as Marlborough House, the redevelopment of the original David Jones warehouse building in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/surry-hills-nsw-2010">Surry Hills</a>.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/develotek">Develotek</a> is joining the likes of TOGA, Deicorp, and One Global Capital, betting on a boom in Five Dock ahead of the 2032 mooted opening of the Five Dock Metro Station.

Develotek, which is currently developing Bianca on the Drummoyne waterfront and has plans approved for a tower in Chatswood, has filed a State Significant Development Application for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/79-81-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">two-building project in the evolving Kings Bay precinct</a>.

The buildings, one more boutique just five storeys and the other 26 storeys, will rise from an 3,158 sqm site across&nbsp;79–81 Queens Road and 2–8 Spencer Street, will home 134 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, above ground-floor retail and five basement levels of parking.

A key component of the proposal is the inclusion of 15 per cent of residential floor space as in-fill affordable housing, unlocking additional height and density under the Housing SEPP.

<img alt="First Look: Develotek lodges State Significant shop top housing project in Five Dock precinct" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3ee31bf7-75ba-4bc5-b190-49885193219f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/podium_2.png?VersionId=730UbrduuwK3C1sO28RHjiLPUPqXqjkh" />

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/plus-studio">Plus Studio</a>, the scheme adopts a podium-and-tower configuration, with a five-storey street wall along Queens Road transitioning to a 26-storey tower set deeper into the site. The ground plane prioritises activation and permeability, with retail frontages and a new through-site link connecting Queens Road to Spencer Street.

At the upper levels, the tower façade has been conceived using a modular system to support prefabrication and reduce construction waste, while improving build efficiency. The splayed form draws on the geometry of surrounding industrial rooftops, reinterpreting the area’s heritage in a contemporary expression while also helping to reduce solar heat gain to east and west-facing apartments.

“This project aspires to transform a former industrial site into a connected, resilient and people-focused urban community, grounded in Country, shaped by history, and designed to enrich everyday life within the evolving Kings Bay Precinct,” said John Walsh, Principal at Plus Studio.

The proposal reflects the broader transformation of the Kings Bay Precinct under the Parramatta Road Corridor Urban Transformation Strategy, marking a shift from its industrial past to a higher-density, mixed-use urban neighbourhood.

<img alt="First Look: Develotek lodges State Significant shop top housing project in Five Dock precinct" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="abde734c-1e31-4a97-a1d2-fa9bcf31c380" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/building%20podium.png?VersionId=fNUupP6u146yEytQT31kKVRxwtACgPpP" />

Develotek is emerging as an active participant in the state’s affordable housing-led uplift pathway. The developer recently secured approval for a 34-storey mixed-use tower in Chatswood, where it similarly leveraged the in-fill affordable housing provisions to increase scale and deliver a 101-unit scheme with dedicated affordable apartments.

Their entry into Five Dock places them alongside a growing list of developers targeting the suburb ahead of its anticipated transport uplift, with Sydney Metro set to extend into the area. Major players including TOGA, Deicorp, and One Global Capital are all progressing large-scale precinct-style developments nearby, collectively reshaping the low-rise industrial fabric into a higher-density mixed-use corridor.

The Five Dock site sits within the Kings Bay Precinct, a key renewal area under the Parramatta Road Corridor Urban Transformation Strategy, where planning controls support significant uplift tied to affordable housing delivery. The consolidated 3,158 sqm site is currently occupied by low-rise industrial uses, including warehouses and vehicle workshops, earmarked for transition.

Ascot’s Racecourse Road continues to be a hive of activity for Brisbane developers.

Following Fortis and GRAYA, which are both preparing new projects along the key strip connecting Kingsford Smith Drive and Eagle Farm Racecourse, local developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/skyhold">Skyhold</a> is the latest to lodge plans for its own development.

The group is proposing One One Two Residences, a boutique project comprising just seven apartments, named after its address at 112 Racecourse Road.

The proposal outlines a five-storey building on an 810 sqm site. The built form slightly exceeds the four-storey expectation under the neighbourhood plan, aligning instead with the emerging character of the strip. As the planning report notes, “the locality is characterised by a transition toward medium-rise residential development, with a number of recent developments… above the stipulated height limits.”

<img alt="First Look: Skyhold lodges plans for boutique Ascot apartments as Racecourse Road revival gathers pace" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ec577631-8c51-4163-960e-e7b3a77d655b" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Ascot.png?VersionId=iAzQ46D4Uu1UqiS0mVnlcy9jeFKBpJIj" />

Designed by 111 with landscape architecture by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/paul-bangay-garden-design">Paul Bangay Studio</a>, the scheme adopts a layered architectural approach with strong articulation and a subtropical response. Deep balconies, integrated planters, and a mix of masonry and textured finishes define the façade, while upper-level setbacks reduce perceived bulk. The architectural statement describes “a series of horizontally expressed layers, defined by deep balconies and a consistent robust material palette,” aimed at delivering a refined streetscape presence.

Apartments are configured as large-format residences, including multiple three-bedroom layouts and a full-floor penthouse, supported by ground-level parking. A rooftop terrace will provide communal amenities including a pool and landscaped recreation areas. The design prioritises privacy, natural ventilation, and greenery, with planting integrated across all levels to soften the building form and contribute to the public realm.

<img alt="First Look: Skyhold lodges plans for boutique Ascot apartments as Racecourse Road revival gathers pace" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="1e1219bd-b45a-4d7f-bbc7-7207d7b2fc94" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Ascot%20entry.png?VersionId=JIoUOLMgQ5xWpEF0etEI3ffIoIVjD7gO" />

The proposal sits within the Racecourse Road precinct, a key mixed-use spine in Ascot that continues to attract renewed development interest.

Later this year national developer Fortis will launch its own boutique development, which, pending council approvals, will be 16 apartments designed by Koichi Takada Architects, just down the street.

“Racecourse Road is going through a massive revitalisation and we’re proud to be a part of that transformation,” said Fortis's QLD General Manager, Dan Boman.

Nearby, GRAYA is advancing its larger-scale The Gallery, a mixed-use shop-top housing project designed to act as a “catalytic project for Racecourse Road.”

Housing lush subtropical planting, Lat27 have also noted that the skygraden “acts as a series of indoor/outdoor spaces at the mid point of the building that provides residents with a mix of social, relaxation and working environments spread over a number of levels”. 
Capped off by an eclectic rooftop, the tower would also offer residents stunning city views from the gardens and pool area. What do you think of the new design?

<a href="/developers/pikos-group">Pikos Property Group</a> have lodged a minor change DA at Banyan Tree Residences - 8 River Terrace, Kangaroo Point.

The change includes a slight height increase from the previous approval, and 63 x 3 bed apartments across three buildings, rather than two. The new DA, designed by <a href="/architects/arkhefield" target="_blank">Arkhefield</a> also includes a rooftop bar and restaurant, with a glass lift providing views on the way up top. Situated on top of the <a href="/developments/kangaroo-point-qld-4169">Kangaroo Point</a> cliffs, the western-facing apartments and rooftop would certainly offer excellent views of the river and CBD.

The development would also be widely seen due to its highly eminent location, and the new <a href="/architects/arkhefield">Arkhefield</a> design undoubtedly meets the high standard in which the prominent site demands.

The massive priority development area aims to create a new central business district for the Sunshine Coast through a masterplanned, 60 hectare space situated on council owned land and the former Horton Park Golf Club. 
As part of the masterplan Sunshine Coast Council are currently building a stunning new city hall, designed by <a href="/architects/cottee-parker-architects" target="_blank">Cottee Parker Architects</a>, and being built by <a href="/developers/mcnab-developments" target="_blank">McNab</a>. The new council headquarters will feature 10 floors totalling approximately 9,400sqm of GFA, a rooftop recreational area and 156 car parking spaces. The building is also targeting both a 5 star NABERS and Green Star rating as a model of sustainable design. 
Sunshine Coast Council aimed to incorporate natural elements in the building’s form, and take occupation of a landmark building with smart, creative and innovative design principles. It’s clear from the renders that <a href="/architects/cottee-parker-architects" target="_blank">Cottee Parker</a> have done an excellent job in delivering on these requests.

How incredible is this?

Kelly Slater Wave Company, Consolidated Properties Group &amp; <a href="/builders/hutchinson-builders" target="_blank">Hutchinson Builders</a> have all teamed up to present Surf Ranch Sunshine Coast - an unmatched surfing experience proposed for construction in <a href="/developments/coolum-beach-qld-4573">Coolum</a>.

The application for the exciting project is currently with the State Government for approval, and it would be incredible to see a project like this delivered in South East Queensland. If approved and constructed, the Surf Ranch would undoubtedly be a hot tourist attraction in the region.

The Surf Ranch would anchor a broader development precinct including a 6 star eco-lodge, event and training facilities and much more.

There's a lot happening in Brisbane at the moment, so here's a round-up of the latest construction milestones in the city. 

Tour of The Eminence

Recently, Build Brisbane had the pleasure of touring Pellegrino Group Australia and <a href="/developers/mosaic-property-group">Mosaic Property Group</a>’s stunning new $40m joint venture commercial development ‘<a href="https://www.mosaicproperty.com.au/design/the-eminence/">The Eminence</a>’ in Fortitude Valley thanks to Paul Pellegrino.

Located on McLachlan Street, the six-storey, A-grade building features a gorgeous design from <a href="/architects/oneill-architecture">O'Neill Architecture</a> which embraces Brisbane’s climate by maximising natural light and including leafy balconies and a huge rooftop breakout space.

The addition of the rooftop deck is an excellent, though, ill-included aspect of most commercial developments which hopefully, we see more of in the future. The lush space features meeting rooms and ample space for the tenants to eat lunch, make a call or take in the city views over some well-earned Friday arvo drinks.

The Eminence’s lobby is also a sight in and of itself to behold, featuring magnificent curves, elegant Italian tiles, and a ground floor café. The six-storey development certainly has plenty on offer for its tenants and is a fantastic addition to the Valley.

The building is almost fully leased with only one floor remaining.

In late July, <a href="/developers/mosaic-property-group">Mosaic Property Group announced</a> the construction of their two-tower project ‘<a href="/buildings/the-sinclair-by-mosaic-150-toohey-street-east-brisbane">The Sinclair</a>’ in East Brisbane which will begin next month. The eight-storey towers designed by <a href="/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> will be joined by a sky bridge and a total of 122 apartments, with an ever-so-important rooftop recreation area capping off the development and making the most of the gorgeous city views.

The site on Wellington Road has sat vacant for some time with Brisbane-based Blue Sky Alternative Investments previously owning the site, which also featured a similar development application.

With The Sinclair reportedly over 75% sold, Mosaic are confident in the <a href="/industry-news/demand-for-brisbane-property-soaring">Brisbane market</a> and have bumped the construction timeline as a result.

<figure><a href="/buildings/the-sinclair-by-mosaic-150-toohey-street-east-brisbane"><img alt="" class="image-article_full_width_580px" height="380" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2020-09-02_at_1.28.57_pm.png?itok=NFDvnsrb" title="Source: Built Brisbane/Linkedin" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Source: Built Brisbane/Linkedin</figcaption></figure>The Valley’s Tallest Building Lodged

Now, this is something different! <a href="https://www.cpltd.com.au/">Cornerstone Properties </a>have lodged massive plans for a 19-floor commercial office tower designed by bureau^proberts at 251 Wickham Street in Fortitude Valley.

The proposed building would top out at roughly 115 metres tall and features full floor glazing with a striking exoskeleton and stepped profile, somewhat reminiscent of Sydney’s <a href="/news/part-approval-for-macquarie-banks-unsolicited-proposal-in-martin-place-irks-city-of-sydney">Deutsche Bank Place</a>. Each office floor features a south-facing balcony looking back towards the city, capped off by a roof terrace.

The<a href="/news/5-of-australias-top-apartment-gardens"> landscape plans</a> come from the team at Lat27, though the building certainly isn’t as lush and green as some of the proposals we’ve seen in recent months. The ground plane does include new greenery (which would be a great addition to this section of the Valley), with an engaging first floor featuring a gym space, infinity-edge pool and end of trip facilities.

If constructed, the building would be the Valley’s tallest building unless Cornerstone gets its previously approved 301 Wickham Street commercial tower underway.

Brisbane's latest construction milestones: Featuring Pellegrino, Mosaic + Cornerstone Properties

<html><body>
There's a lot happening in Brisbane at the moment, so here's a round up of the latest construction milestones in the city. 

<h2>Mirvac commence construction on Ashford Residences</h2>

<figure><img alt="" class="image-article_full_width_580px" height="393" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2020-08-26_at_6.53.03_pm.png?itok=_fBMruWu" title="Source: Built Brisbane/Linkedin" width="580">

<figcaption>Source: Built Brisbane/Linkedin</figcaption></figure><a href="/developers/mirvac">Mirvac</a> have now commenced construction on their $81 million Ashford Residences community at Everton Park which includes the creation of a one-hectare eco area alongside the Kedron Brook.

Civil contractor Pensar Infrastructure have been engaged to begin work on the initial stages which will form part of the Ashford Residences project. On completion, Mirvac Residential's new community will feature 124 residences, including 43 freestanding homes and 80 three and four bedroom terrace homes, along with the newly restored heritage Queenslander, 'Murphy's Dairy Residence' and as pictured; The Ashford Club.

<h2>Cavcorp connect retail precinct to Luminare</h2>

<figure><a href="/buildings/luminare-newstead-20-festival-place-newstead"><img alt="" class="image-article_full_width_580px" height="313" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2020-08-26_at_6.59.13_pm.png?itok=XWzaKQ8C" title="Source: Built Brisbane/Linkedin" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Source: Built Brisbane/Linkedin</figcaption></figure><a href="/developers/cavcorp">Cavcorp</a> have lodged a proposal to expand their award-winning Long Island retail precinct with a new four-floor fitness and wellness centre. The new development will be the second stage of Long Island and will be built around a central public piazza which will also connect Lucent and the future <a href="/buildings/luminare-newstead-20-festival-place-newstead">Luminare</a> building.

The building highlights Cavcorp’s commitment to health and wellness for their residents and locals alike, through the inclusion of two full floors for gyms and a top floor featuring a 25 metre pool, yoga pavilion, magnesium spas, infrared saunas and float tanks. The rooftop even features a vegetable garden.

<h2>West End’s Tree House includes over 1000 trees</h2>

<figure><a href="/buildings/tree-house-111-jane-street-west-end"><img alt="" class="image-article_full_width_580px" height="247" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2020-08-26_at_7.01.01_pm.png?itok=RA-ftrLf" title="Source: Aria Property" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Source: Aria Property</figcaption></figure>One of West End’s most exciting developments currently under construction is <a href="/developers/aria-property-group">Aria Living's</a> "Tree House" at 111 Jane Street, opposite Davies Park. Designed by <a href="/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>, the 12 storey, 90 apartment residential building aims to merge lush greenery with an architecturally striking form, featuring more than 60 mature trees throughout.

Using an earthy colour palette and incorporating some gorgeous curves, <a href="/buildings/tree-house-111-jane-street-west-end">Tree House</a> is a prime example of Aria’s ability to go well above and beyond Brisbane City Council's Buildings that Breathe guidelines with landscape designers RPS at the helm. The capacity to adequately maintain the intense amount of vegetation at Tree House will likely have some impact and dictate future decision making for Aria’s bold new Urban Forest proposal, which is proposed to contain over a thousand trees.

And what’s an Aria development without a stunning rooftop? Tree House certainly doesn’t buck the trend featuring; a 2 storey rooftop with river and city views, an infinity pool, spa, private dining rooms, BBQ facilities and even a playground for the kids.

The development is on track for completion towards the end of the year.
