ANZ believes the Reserve Bank is in no rush to move again.

Following the release of the May Monetary Policy Board Minutes, ANZ has taken the view that the RBA is now firmly in a holding pattern, with the cumulative impact of previous rate hikes giving the Board scope to assess how the economy evolves from here.

That positioning, in ANZ’s view, makes a June rate hike unlikely.

The bank continues to expect the cash rate to remain unchanged at 4.35 per cent for an extended period, with the RBA adopting what is effectively a wait-and-see approach.

The Minutes point to a Board that sees financial conditions as already restrictive, but without a clear read on just how restrictive they are. That uncertainty has shifted the focus away from immediate policy action and toward monitoring both domestic conditions and global developments, particularly the conflict in the Middle East.

As ANZ interprets it, the Board is deliberately avoiding strong forward guidance.

Instead, it is allowing itself flexibility, acknowledging that monetary policy has limited ability to influence the near-term trajectory of inflation, while also recognising that economic growth is likely to remain below potential for some time.

Despite that pause in momentum, ANZ notes that the Board still carries a tightening bias.

The Minutes reveal that, in weighing up its decision, the Board seriously considered another 25 basis point increase. The key debate centred on the trade-off between inflation and activity, particularly in the context of global uncertainty.

Ultimately, most members leaned toward the inflation side of that equation.

Underlying inflation is still expected to remain above target for an extended period, regardless of how external risks evolve. That has led to a view within the Board that the risks to its inflation objective have increased, and that the current cash rate may not be sufficiently restrictive to fully contain those pressures.

That’s important.

While the decision, for now, is to hold, the underlying tone of the Minutes suggests the door to further tightening has not been closed.

ANZ also points to commentary from Assistant Governor (Economic) Sarah Hunter, who highlighted the risk that inflation could pass through the economy more quickly and broadly than in previous cycles. Both Hunter and a majority of the Board expressed concern that inflation expectations could become less anchored after such a prolonged period above target.

That combination, persistent inflation and the risk of expectations shifting, is what continues to underpin the RBA’s cautious stance.

However, where ANZ diverges from the RBA is on the outlook for activity.

The Board appears relatively comfortable with current spending patterns, effectively downplaying recent declines in business and consumer sentiment. It notes that sentiment has historically been only weakly correlated with actual spending, and that feedback from its liaison program has not yet pointed to a meaningful slowdown in consumption.

ANZ is less convinced.

The bank believes the link between household disposable income, sentiment and spending is more direct than the RBA is currently acknowledging. With inflation continuing to erode real incomes, ANZ expects household spending to soften more materially than the central bank is forecasting.

That divergence matters because it shifts the balance of risk.

If activity weakens more than expected, the trade-off between inflation and growth changes. In ANZ’s view, that would reduce the need for further tightening and reinforce the case for the RBA to remain on hold.

It also suggests that the current policy setting may already be doing more work than the Board fully appreciates.

The broader takeaway from ANZ’s interpretation is that the RBA is walking a narrow path.

On one side sits the risk of inflation remaining elevated for longer than expected. On the other is the growing pressure on households and the potential for a sharper slowdown in activity.

For now, the Board is choosing to wait.

But it is a pause that still carries an underlying tightening bias, rather than a clear pivot toward easing.

In practical terms, that leaves the cash rate anchored at 4.35 per cent for the foreseeable future, with the next move still uncertain.

For borrowers, it reinforces the reality that relief is not imminent.

And for the broader economy, it highlights the delicate balance the RBA is trying to strike, between bringing inflation back to target and avoiding an unnecessarily sharp slowdown in growth.

According to ANZ, it is a balance that is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain.

RBA to hold rates for "prolonged period" rather than hikes: ANZ

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/venturecrowd-property-projects">VentureCrowd</a> is down to the final Canopy Villa release at Cumulus Grand Villas in Carrara, as construction continues on the 59-residence gated community positioned above 100 hectares of natural savanna on the Gold Coast.

The remaining Canopy Villa forms part of one of four collections within the <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a>-designed community and has attracted interest from buyers seeking larger-format homes that combine privacy, security and low-maintenance living. Positioned within a private cul-de-sac and facing a protected black she oak forest, the four-bedroom villa includes a large private outdoor area suited to pet owners and families wanting more flexible space.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/cumulus-grand-villas-carrara-17-baltimore-court-carrara-qld-4211">Cumulus Grand Villas</a>, located at 17 Baltimore Court, comprises a mix of three and four-bedroom villas across the Skyline, Canopy, Savanna and Broadview collections. Prices currently range from $1.455 million to $1.895 million, with the final Canopy Villa priced from $1.825 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360477]

The Canopy Collection villas offer four bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and approximately 245 sqm of internal space, alongside double garages and landscaped private areas. Expansive glazing, open-plan living spaces and private balconies have been designed to maximise natural light and outlooks toward the surrounding savanna landscape.

Construction is now underway across the fully funded development, which VentureCrowd says has become an increasingly important consideration for buyers assessing off-the-plan opportunities on the Gold Coast. The project is being delivered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/devcon">Devcon Property Group</a>, which has operated in South East Queensland since 1993 and delivered more than 1,000 homes across the region.

VentureCrowd Director of Property David Whitting previously said the project responds to changing buyer priorities in the prestige Gold Coast market.

“Flexible floorplans have proven particularly relevant for purchasers aged between 40 and 65, including next home buyers, downsizers and investors,” Whitting said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360505]

The buyer profile at Cumulus has reflected that shift toward owner-occupier-driven demand. Stuart Towns and Tracey Loynes recently purchased a Canopy Villa, drawn to both the lifestyle offering and the flexibility the home provided for their next stage of living together.

The couple, who met three years ago, sold their Robina home earlier this year after identifying what they saw as strong long-term investment potential at Cumulus while remaining within the same Gold Coast market. The villa’s private backyard was a major drawcard for their dog Luna, while proximity to golf courses including Emerald Lakes also aligned with their lifestyle interests.

Beyond the residences themselves, the community has been planned around shared lifestyle and recreation amenities. The Infinity Terrace will include a 20-metre heated pool, barbecue facilities, alfresco dining spaces and elevated retreat areas overlooking the surrounding landscape. Walking trails, a private nature reserve, orchard and herb garden are also integrated into the masterplan.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360473]

BDA Architecture Director Darren Greenaway said the design approach was heavily influenced by the site’s outlook and secluded setting.

The practice sought to create what Greenaway described as a “little piece of paradise,” drawing inspiration from the elevated views, surrounding greenery and quiet location.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/carrara-qld-4211">Carrara</a> continues to attract buyers seeking larger homes within proximity to the coast but without direct beachfront pricing. Cumulus sits within easy reach of Broadbeach, Pacific Fair, Robina Town Centre and the M1, providing connections north to Brisbane and south toward the Gold Coast Airport and northern New South Wales.

The first stage of Cumulus Grand Villas is targeting completion in 2026.

VentureCrowd nears sell-out of Canopy Collection at Cumulus Grand Villas in Carrara

Waverley Council has made a call that many councils have been reluctant to make publicly. Growth is coming, regardless of who controls it.

The release of the Bondi Junction Vision and Master Plan is less about whether the Eastern Suburbs’ primary centre will change, and more about how that change is shaped, funded, and ultimately experienced on the ground. Waverley Council has released a 100-page plan which is effectively the first comprehensive blueprint for Bondi Junction in over two decades, and in doing so, signals a clear shift in how councils are positioning themselves in the current planning environment.

For the past 18 months, the conversation across New South Wales has been dominated by the State Government’s Low and Mid-Rise Housing reforms and the emergence of the Housing Delivery Authority pathway. Both have created faster, more centralised avenues for development approvals, particularly in well-located, infrastructure-rich areas like Bondi Junction.

Waverley Council’s response has been to move early, and decisively.

Rather than react to individual proposals as they come through the HDA or broader State-led reforms, Council has sought to establish a clear, place-based framework that sets the terms for how Bondi Junction evolves. The underlying position is relatively straightforward: if densification is inevitable, it should be tied to infrastructure, public domain improvements, and a cohesive vision for the centre, not delivered piecemeal through ad hoc applications.

<img alt="bondi junction" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7f1f729c-ed99-4c6c-bf87-ffbce6991941" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-19%20at%209.58.16%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=ULX4OlXKjeJ5BvNCNGL86evgXCjCfMih" />

At its core, the document is attempting to reposition Bondi Junction from what it largely functions as today, a transport interchange anchored by a major retail centre, into something far more layered. The ambition is to transform it into what the plan describes as the “civic and cultural heart of Sydney’s East,” a place that is active beyond commuting hours and capable of supporting a broader mix of uses, experiences and communities.

That repositioning is built around four key ambitions.

The first is to create a true destination. Bondi Junction already attracts significant foot traffic, with more than 86,000 daily transport users and millions of annual retail visits, but much of that activity is transient. People pass through, rather than stay.

The Master Plan seeks to change that dynamic. It leans heavily into the idea of an “18-hour economy,” extending activity well beyond traditional retail hours through dining, cultural programming, events, and a more active night-time offering. This is not just about adding more hospitality venues, but about fundamentally shifting how the centre operates, from a daytime shopping destination to a place that functions across the full span of the day and into the evening.

Oxford Street Mall sits at the centre of that shift.

Long seen as underperforming relative to its potential, the Mall is identified as one of the key catalyst projects in the plan. It is to be reimagined as a day-to-night spine, combining retail, dining, wellness and cultural uses in a way that creates a continuous flow of activity. Outdoor dining, rooftop venues, laneway activation and a curated events program are all part of the strategy, alongside significant public domain upgrades that aim to improve comfort, safety and usability.

&nbsp;

The second ambition is to transform Bondi Junction into a world-class interchange.

Despite being one of the most heavily used transport nodes in Sydney, the current experience is fragmented. Connections between the station, Westfield, Oxford Street Mall and surrounding streets are often unclear, and major roads create physical barriers that disrupt pedestrian movement.

The Master Plan proposes a more seamless, people-focused network. That includes clearer pedestrian links, improved wayfinding, better integration between transport modes, and a rethinking of how arrival into the centre is experienced. The aim is to shift the perception of Bondi Junction from a place people move through, to a place they arrive in.

The third ambition focuses on greening and open space.

One of the more consistent pieces of community feedback throughout the Vision phase was the need for more greenery, better public spaces, and a more comfortable urban environment. Despite being surrounded by major parks, Bondi Junction itself has relatively limited accessible open space, with much of the public realm dominated by hard surfaces and traffic infrastructure.

The plan responds with a network of new and upgraded public spaces, increased tree canopy, and what it terms the “Parkline,” a green link connecting Waverley Park through to Centennial Park. This is not just about aesthetics. It is about addressing heat, improving liveability, and ensuring that increased density is matched by access to high-quality outdoor space.

The fourth ambition is perhaps the most important from a development perspective: growth that gives back.

Bondi Junction is already the primary location for new housing supply in the Waverley LGA, and that is expected to continue. The area carries a target of 2,400 new dwellings by 2029, with further growth projected beyond that as demand for well-located housing continues to rise. The Master Plan does not seek to limit that growth. Instead, it attempts to shape it.

New housing is to be concentrated around transport, with stepped building heights designed to protect the character of surrounding neighbourhoods. At the same time, the plan introduces a more explicit link between development uplift and public benefit. This is where value capture becomes central.

The document outlines a framework where increased development potential is tied to contributions that fund public domain improvements, community infrastructure, open space, and affordable housing. It is an approach that recognises that much of the transformation of Bondi Junction will be delivered by the private sector, but seeks to ensure that the benefits of that growth are shared more broadly. The Civic Precinct is a key part of that equation.

Leveraging Council-owned land, the plan proposes a consolidated civic and cultural hub centred around Ebley Street. This would include new community facilities, cultural spaces, and potentially a new Council Chambers, creating a focal point for civic life that currently does not exist in Bondi Junction at scale.

It is one of several catalyst projects identified in the Master Plan, alongside the Oxford Street Mall transformation. These projects are intended to anchor change, acting as early interventions that unlock broader investment across the precinct.

Importantly, the Master Plan is not just a design document. It includes a delivery framework that sets out how these ambitions are intended to be realised.

Council is explicit in acknowledging that it cannot deliver the transformation alone. Implementation will require coordination between State agencies, private developers, landowners and the community, with a mix of planning agreements, infrastructure contributions and direct delivery mechanisms used to fund and stage improvements over time.

The plan outlines a mix of short-term, medium-term and long-term actions, from immediate public domain upgrades and planning controls, through to larger-scale projects that will unfold over the next decade or more. In practical terms, the next 12 to 24 months will be the most important.

This is when the Master Plan will move through exhibition, refinement and eventual adoption. It is also the period in which Council will seek to embed the framework into its planning controls, giving it weight in the assessment of future development applications.

Council officers have indicated that once the Master Plan is in place, it could be used as a benchmark when assessing Housing Delivery Authority proposals, and potentially reduce the need for further HDA declarations within Bondi Junction. In effect, it is an attempt to bring planning control back to the local level, while still aligning with State housing targets.

That tension between State-led reform and local planning control is not unique to Waverley. It is playing out across Sydney.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

If delivered as intended, Bondi Junction will become denser, more active, and more complex. It will support more residents, more workers, and a wider range of uses, extending beyond its current retail core into a more layered urban environment.

“The civic and cultural heart of Sydney’s East”: Bondi Junction masterplan revealed

Toorak's dress circle St Georges Road, home to some of the city's priciest homes, is set for a rare new apartment development.

Blood Diamond Group, an entity tied to Tina Brandi, wife of David Brandi who has been a prolific bidder on The Block over the years, has filed plans for an ultra-exclusive development across an amalgamated 3,662 sqm site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/104-106-st-georges-road-toorak-vic-3142">104 and 106 St Georges Road</a>.

The proposal would replace two existing homes on the riverfront site with a five-level apartment building cascading down the steeply sloping land toward the Yarra River. Designed by Charles Wright Architects, the development has been carefully shaped around the site’s topography and river environs, with the upper levels stepping back to reduce visual bulk from both St Georges Road and the Yarra corridor.

Planning documents describe the proposal as “a site layout and building typology that is consistent with the emerging character of the area and which provides exceptional amenity for future residents without compromising that of neighbouring properties.”&nbsp;

<img alt="First look: Blood Diamond Group unveils riverfront apartment plans for Toorak Pavilion" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ea19a17e-7528-4fa8-b727-05f2f7c025e5" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Toorak%20pavilion%20a_0.png?VersionId=rZ2IjdoUL_UrRl1sZ4wZHnQXbYUaEmUQ" />

The scheme comprises 12 apartments, including 10 three-bedroom residences, one one-bedroom apartment, and a substantial split-level five-bedroom penthouse. A 624 sqm communal rooftop terrace will crown the building, while three undercroft levels embedded into the hillside will accommodate apartments and basement parking.

The design leverages the site’s dramatic northern outlook across the Yarra River, with living areas and balconies oriented toward the water. A central atrium running the full height of the building is intended to draw natural light deep into the residences and improve internal amenity.

Landscape architecture by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/jack-merlo">Jack Merlo Design &amp; Landscape</a> will play a major role in softening the built form, particularly along the river edge where significant setbacks have been introduced. The proposal includes a minimum 30-metre setback from the Yarra River boundary, preserving a substantial landscaped buffer between the development and the waterway.

While a mature English Oak near the front of the site is proposed for removal, the plans retain a large English Elm closer to the riverfront, alongside other established vegetation in the lower section of the property.

Architecturally, the building adopts strong horizontal forms with expansive glazing and curved balcony edges facing the river. Planning documents note the upper levels “adopt a receding form” to ensure the building responds appropriately to the Yarra River environs overlay controls.&nbsp;

The surrounding streetscape is characterised by large contemporary homes embedded into the hillside, many presenting as modest one or two-storey forms to the street before expanding toward the river frontage below. The planning report notes this established pattern heavily influenced the massing strategy for Toorak Pavilion.&nbsp;

Until the recent sale of the landmark Clendon Road mansion Coonac for around $130 million, St Georges Road held the state's most expensive home, the $80,000,088 derelict "Ghost House" mansion that was bought by crypto king Ed Craven.&nbsp;

Blair House, also on St Georges Road, sold for $74.5 million in 2022.

Six months after a development site on Kangaroo Point’s Shafston Avenue sold for $6.55 million, plans have been lodged for a 23-storey apartment tower.

A company named JMT Mega Capital, understood to be interstate investors when the 1,222 sqm double block traded late last year through Patona Property, is proposing an 84-apartment development in place of the existing low-rise buildings.

The slender tower at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/212-220-shafston-avenue-east-brisbane-qld-4169">212–220 Shafston Avenue</a>, overlooking the Brisbane River, has been designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/aplus-design-group">Aplus Design Group</a>. It will comprise a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments above six basement levels, topped by rooftop resident amenities.

<img alt="First look: 23-storey Kangaroo Point tower planned for Shafston Avenue riverfront precinct" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7e17ba9e-553e-42ef-92b6-22081671521a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/podium_3.png?VersionId=hlVUf99vrOjUs.vhQs0qV0DhOncUy9T8" />

The development has been designed as a vertically articulated tower with recessed balconies, curved façades and planted edges intended to soften its scale within the evolving Shafston Avenue skyline. In the submitted Urban Design Report, Aplus Design Group said the tower had been “shaped with a slender vertical expression, articulated façades, recessed balcony zones, integrated planting and a clearly defined podium relationship, helping to reduce perceived bulk and create a more elegant contribution to the Shafston Avenue streetscape and broader Kangaroo Point skyline.”

The scheme comprises 84 apartments, including 25 one-bedroom units, 34 two-bedroom apartments and 25 three-bedroom residences. A total of 104 car spaces are proposed across six basement levels, including resident, visitor and accessible parking.

Residents will have access to rooftop communal open space and shared amenities, while the development also incorporates deep planting zones and subtropical landscaping throughout the podium and tower levels. The project includes 35 per cent communal space coverage across the site and a 17.5 per cent deep soil zone allocation to support urban greening outcomes.

The application exceeds the mapped building height under the Kangaroo Point Peninsula Neighbourhood Plan and is being assessed under Brisbane City Council’s impact assessment pathway. The design team argues the additional height is supported by the site’s strategic inner-city location, existing high-density zoning, and proximity to transport and employment hubs.

“The design has been developed to make better use of a well-serviced urban site within an established high-density residential setting, while improving the street presentation and overall quality of the public realm interface,” the report states.

<img alt="First look: 23-storey Kangaroo Point tower planned for Shafston Avenue riverfront precinct" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="1ab44b1e-ff45-4bf3-8da8-8aa0cd79db33" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/site_10.png?VersionId=tSxeGekZOqj1e9g3PEn_yFoC3taKDp3U" />

The proposal adds to a growing pipeline of apartment developments reshaping Kangaroo Point ahead of the 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games, with demand continuing to strengthen for new housing supply in well-connected inner-city precincts.

Newstead

ASX-listed developer Mirvac has commenced construction on its latest signature Brisbane apartment building, the $212 million Isle Waterfront Newstead, which will create a lush new green heart of more than 10,000 plants and additional public parkland in the riverside suburb.

Isle is the third apartment building Mirvac has underway at its $1 billion Waterfront Newstead community, joining the 25-level Quay and the build-to-rent development LIV Anura, which is being delivered in partnership with the Queensland Government.

Across the three projects, Mirvac is delivering more than 650 apartments just two kilometres from the Brisbane CBD, with over half to be build-to-rent apartments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=204186]

A total of 78 per cent of the 133 apartments have been sold off the plan at Isle since its release in July 2022, including all four ultra-luxury penthouses. Sales have ranged from $540,000 to $6.25 million.

Over 30 per cent of buyers are from direct surrounding suburbs Newstead, New Farm and Teneriffe, and more than two thirds plan to own and occupy.

Mirvac Group General Manager, Residential Development QLD Warwick Bible said the strong sales response to Isle reinforced Mirvac’s ongoing confidence in the resilient Brisbane apartment market and its legacy Waterfront Newstead community, which Mirvac has been developing for more than two decades.

“With Isle under construction, we now have more than $675 million in projects underway at Waterfront Newstead – it’s a very significant investment and a clear demonstration of our confidence in this city and this precinct’s unparalleled location by the Brisbane River,” he said.

"Across Isle, Quay and LIV Anura, we're delivering a diversity of new housing, including our luxury riverside residences and our 396 build-to-rent apartments, of which 25 per cent will be subsidised by the State Government as key worker affordable housing.

“We’ve built an incredible 20-plus year history of urban renewal in Newstead, from our Mariner’s Reach redevelopment of the former P&amp;O Wharf to our Cutters Landing refurbishment of the CSR sugar refinery, both catalysts for the significant revitalisation of the area that paved the way for the first stages of Waterfront Newstead, Pier, Park and Unison.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=204187]

“We’re seeing the Brisbane market performing well, underpinned by strong fundamentals with ongoing population growth, the return of immigration, tight vacancy, robust rental growth and restricted future supply outlook plus employment opportunities and major public and private investment ahead of the 2032 Olympics, and we are committed to continuing to be part of that legacy.”

Isle, located at 57 Skyring Terrace in Newstead has been designed by award winning Mirvac Design to align with Brisbane City Council’s ‘Buildings that Breathe’ principles, aimed at creating lush urban environments through sub-tropical architecture that reflects the city’s climate, opens to cooling breezes, features living greenery and provides shade and comfort.

The 25-level Isle will feature a suite of amenities to enhance residents’ wellbeing and highlight Brisbane’s natural assets, from the ground-floor leafy gardens featuring local flora to the rooftop Isle resort, boasting an infinity-edge pool and floating sunbeds that overlook picturesque river, park and city views, wellness centre, dining room, sunset cocktail bar and yoga lawn. A business centre and gym, located on level two, and a concierge service are also available for use by all residents.

"Isle will be efficient, resilient and sustainable, with its significant sub-tropical planting, solar panels to power communal electrical, efficient water fittings, EV car charging and the minimisation of construction waste among the many green initiatives being implemented," Bible added.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=204182]

Over 5,570 sqm, equating to more than 50 per cent of the site for Isle and sister building Quay Waterfront Newstead, will be available to the community as green open space, including parkland, shaded seating, water features and public art. Quay is also under construction, having been 100% pre- sold and will feature another 9,000-plus plants.

Mirvac’s $197 million Quay, which sold out in just seven months, and $270 million build-to-rent Queensland debut LIV Anura, are both anticipated for completion in 2024. Isle is anticipated to be completed in late 2025.

Mirvac is also constructing its $135 million Charlton House at Ascot Green, alongside Brisbane’s historic Eagle Farm Racecourse, with completion on track for mid-2024.

Mirvac commence construction on Isle Waterfront Newstead apartments 

Boutique property developers DibCorp have recently released their City View Collection in Bide Newstead. With construction underway, Bide Newstead is set to deliver 89 residences for completion in late 2023.

Atlantis Property Group Director, Fraser Byrne, said construction has been tracking well, despite the continuing building sector struggles.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102309 project_image_fid=163974]

“LPS Group has been powering through the basement dig and the basement pour has just commenced,” Byrne said.

Over 85 per cent of the apartments have already been sold in Bide, with stock uptake heavily weighted towards local owner occupiers. Byrne says however there have been a number of interstate purchasers, who intend to move from the south to the Sunshine state.

There has also been a few investors securing apartments in the contemporary block.

The number of new apartment project launches have significantly diminished in 2022, with many developers holding back projects until the interest rate hikes slow and both labour and material costs become more reasonable.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102309 project_image_fid=163971]

Bryne said it’s in times like these where it’s important for buyers to put their trust in builder/developers who can get projects out of the ground.&nbsp;

“In the current climate, launching a project is one thing, but actually being under construction is another,” Byrne said.

“To have a project in Newstead that has the surety of being in construction with a completion date in site, gives buyers a lot of comfort.”

Located just three kilometres from the Brisbane CBD, the dress circle address, and the overall designs and landscaping by Twohill &amp; James, Wiltshire Stevens Architecture and Lat27 add to Bide’s continuing success.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102309 project_image_fid=163977]

With the project titled from the verb meaning to dwell or reside, the building design has been considered from the inside out, ensuring all of the elements to a balanced home can be achieved to each skyhome.

The Newstead address grants breathtaking city views, while perfectly framed floor-to-ceiling windows allow natural light to spill into every aspect of the homes.

Wellness is a paramount element of Bide Newstead’s design, with its amenity offering further emphasising the importance of lifestyle for all residents.

Bide offers a 600 sqm lush garden, across two storeys, an urban green space dedicated to wellness and entertainment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102309 project_image_fid=163984]

The number of new apartment project launches have significantly diminished in 2022, with many developers holding back projects until the interest rate hikes slow and both labour and material costs become more reasonable.

Bide Newstead begins to take form with construction well underway

The latest apartments to hit Newstead, the sought-after inner-Brisbane suburb, are closer to fruition.

Brisbane-based boutique property developers DibCorp has signed on LPS Group to handle the construction of their apartment project Bide, which&nbsp;will deliver 89 residences to 29 Longland Street upon completion in late 2023.

The suburb has positioned itself as a popular choice among developers, sitting just three kilometres from the CBD, with significant investment into infrastructure evolving the area into a dynamic lifestyle, commercial and entertainment hub.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102309 project_image_fid=163974]

With construction in full swing for LPS on Bide, just a limited number of apartments from the City View Collection remain, offering a mix of two and three-bedroom floorplans.

The two-bedroom residences in the collection kick off from $ $810,000, while the three-bed Skyhomes come in from $ 1,350,000, across roughly 146 sqm, with a focus on wellbeing and liveability across the entire project.

A collaborative group are behind the architecture and landscape design at Bide, with DibCorp engaging Brisbane locals, Twohill and James, Wiltshire Stevens Architecture and Lat27.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102309 project_image_fid=203218]

The residential amenity within Bide has also been designed with a focus around lifestyle and wellbeing.

The 600 sqm lush garden, known as Bide Gardens, will home private cabanas and barbecue facilities, designed as a place to relax and unwind for residents as well as an additional space within the project where buyers can work-from-home. &nbsp;

LPS to construct DibCorp’s Newstead apartment project, Bide

Mirvac has unveiled plans for its latest premium apartment building, Isle, at its $1 billion Waterfront Newstead community in Brisbane.

Increasing buyer demand for apartments offering a connection to nature and emphasis on wellness has influenced the design of Isle, which is set to launch to market mid this year.

Isle Waterfront Newstead will sit alongside Mirvac&rsquo;s Quay Waterfront Newstead at 57 Skyring Terrace and feature significant living greenery, soft organic architecture and a suite of amenities designed for health and wellbeing.

Isle will feature 135 residences across 25 levels, including one, two and three-bedroom apartments, expansive three and four-bedroom pavilions and four-bedroom penthouses, which sit across half a level.

Designed by the award-winning Mirvac Design team, Isle is leading a trend in biophilic architecture, centred on bringing nature into the built environment, and Brisbane&rsquo;s ongoing move towards &lsquo;Buildings that Breathe&rsquo;.

It will enjoy a sought-after position fronting Waterfront Park and just steps from Gasworks Plaza.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=183998]

The launch comes after Mirvac&#39;s previous stage at Waterfront Newstead, Quay, sold out all of the 136 apartments in the 25-level tower in seven months.

Construction of Quay is already underway and due for completion in early 2024.

Mirvac&#39;s Head of Residential, Stuart Penklis, says Mirvac&nbsp;has launched nine major apartment projects in the last 12 months including Isle Waterfront Newstead.

&quot;We are seeing a rise in demand for premium, well-located, larger and higher specification apartments from owner occupiers, which is what Isle will respond to - with everything from one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom penthouses,&rdquo; Penklis said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=183996]

Mirvac General Manager Residential Queensland, Warwick Bible, said the success of Quay reflected buyers&rsquo; increasing preference for premium apartments and amenity.

&ldquo;The success of Quay and our plans for Isle demonstrate our commitment to the Brisbane market, where we are well placed to deliver exceptional quality in response to significant demand for apartments in the city and the Waterfront Newstead community. Now we have development approval for Isle, we&rsquo;re working to bring the apartments to market as soon as possible to meet demand for this style of living in the heart of the city,&rdquo; said Bible

&ldquo;We&rsquo;re seeing buyers looking for apartments with a sustainable design, where they can live feeling connected to nature and enjoy holistic health benefits. We embraced these concepts at Quay and purchasers responded extremely well. Isle will take them to the next level, creating a unique experience for residents.&rdquo;

&ldquo;The building optimises the indoor-outdoor lifestyle, with floor-to-ceiling glass sliders inviting cooling river breezes, expansive sculptured and planted balconies offering shade and an orientation ideal for cross ventilation, with spectacular northern aspects to Brisbane River and Waterfront Park,&rdquo; he added.

The exterior is designed as an &lsquo;urban forest&rsquo; to blend with the natural environment, with its organic curves draped in greenery acting as an extension to neighbouring Waterfront Park and its ground-floor retail integrated with lush, planted enclaves and water features.

The group worked closely with landscape architects RPS on the planting palette, while a suite of resort-style amenities were designed to further enhance residents&rsquo; health and wellbeing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=183997]

Isle will feature an infinity edge lap pool on the rooftop, along with infrared and magnesium spas, a fully equipped dining room and sunset cocktail bar, all overlooking the park and Brisbane River, giving residents the space to unwind, reflect and entertain.

&ldquo;There will also be a gym, a business lounge for those embracing the work-from-home culture that has blossomed post-Covid and a concierge service, for everyday luxury. It is all about creating opportunities for residents to live a balanced and healthy lifestyle, all from their home address,&rdquo; said Bible.

&ldquo;The apartments will feature quality, natural materials such as stone, glass and warm tones, which creates a beautiful and tactile experience,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;The floor plans will offer a generosity of space, with an open-plan design that connects seamlessly to the expansive balconies and views beyond.&rdquo;

Located in the heart of Newstead and just two-kilometres from Brisbane CBD, Isle residents will benefit from restaurants, cafes, public transport, the Brisbane River and Waterfront Park all at its doorstep.

Mirvac unveil plans for Isle, Newstead apartments, in $1billion Brisbane River community

The Newstead Federal Boot Factory, bought by Brisbane billionaire John Van Lieshout last year, is set to go ahead with its apartment redevelopment.

Van Lieshout, the founder and former owner of the Super A-Mart furniture store chain, has however tweaked with the plans that he inherited when the 1821 sqm site at 14 Maud Street was bought.

They were designed by Joe Adsett Architects, and had planned for 52 apartments across nine levels.

New plans submitted to the Brisbane City Council see the Brisbane-based Ellivo Architects design a slightly more boutique project, with just the 41 apartments.

The plans are for a mix of two, three and four bedroom apartments, still across nine levels, with the rooftop being the focal point of the resident amenity.

Half of the roof is the huge 190 sqm penthouse with four bedrooms, a home office, and a 112 sqm wrap around balcony, while the other half has a communal&nbsp;outdoor dining room and kitchen&nbsp;and a swimming pool with day beds.

The project&nbsp;will be integrated with the old Federal Boot Factory on its heritage 1012 sqm lot, with the retention and adaptive reuse of the Goldsworthy and Perkins Boot Factory heritage building into ground floor retail.

Newstead's Federal Boot Factory apartment development plans get refresh

Mirvac has lodged its latest plans for the next stage of its $1 billion Waterfront Newstead community on the banks of the Brisbane River.

The second stage of the ASX-listed developer&#39;s Sky Precinct will see a 25-level mixed-use tower created, homing 135 apartments and 825 sqm of ground-level retail.

The plans have been brought forward due to the success of Quay Waterfront Newstead, the first stage of the masterplanned precinct. That&#39;s nearing sell-out after knocking over $155 million in sales since its April launch.

Designed by the award-winning Mirvac Design team, the new sub-tropical design is focussed on organic forms and a connection to nature. The intent is to create the next iteration in a family of buildings for the Sky Precinct each with its own unique identity.

The building will feature a mix of one, two and three bedroom residences, along with expansive four bedroom pavilions and penthouses.

It will include extensive resident amenity, with a riverside rooftop featuring a pool, sunset bar, sky gardens, wellness spaces,&nbsp;a gym, and a business centre&nbsp;to facilitate the continued trend towards working from home.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=183997]

On the ground-floor, it will offer a collection of retail spaces, which integrate with landscaped green enclaves, water features and shaded areas connected to the neighbouring Waterfront Park.

It is anticipated the new building will be released to market in mid-2022, pending approval from Brisbane City Council.

Mirvac Head of Residential Stuart Penklis said the planning phase for the new stage was brought forward shortly after Quay&rsquo;s successful debut to the market in April.

&ldquo;The response to Quay has been phenomenal and we realised early on it was going to reach its sales targets well ahead of schedule, prompting us to start looking at expediting timelines for this exciting next stage,&rdquo; Penklis said.

&ldquo;Our vision is to create a unique building that complements Quay and again develops the &lsquo;Buildings that Breathe&rsquo; principles, with a living green fa&ccedil;ade, soft organic form and significant connection to the surrounding natural environment.

&ldquo;The proposed building takes full advantage of its northern aspect towards the Brisbane River and Waterfront Park, with apartments capturing cooling breezes and residents enjoying significant resort- style amenity designed for lifestyle and wellness.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve also carefully considered how the building will interact with the broader Newstead precinct, including an active street-level, which we envision will become a destination in its own right, providing improved linkages to the river, Gasworks and green spaces for the whole community to enjoy.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109822 project_image_fid=183996]

Mirvac Design Director, Michael Wiener, said the team worked closely with landscape architects, RPS, to develop a lush planting palette that will enhance the liveability of the building and the urban space.

&ldquo;Integrating living greenery with architecture is essential to subtropical design and we&rsquo;ve placed significant focus on this, both in terms of the planned building and how it interfaces with - and expands - Waterfront Park,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;In the public space, there will be sculptural shade structures with greenery, screening elements and luxuriant trees, which will look fantastic and enhance people&rsquo;s experience. We see it as the rebirth of a new Waterfront Park that is more reflective of the vibrant Newstead neighbourhood of today.

&ldquo;The apartments have been designed with variable balcony widths to create deep eaves for shelter, planting and cross-ventilation, ensuring residents have every opportunity to make the most of Brisbane&rsquo;s beautiful year-round climate.&rdquo;

Mirvac has been developing its Waterfront Newstead community since 2001, including the completed Pier, Park and Unison buildings and its latest stage, Quay, which is under construction and due for completion in early 2024.

The ASX-listed developer Mirvac has started work on their $180 million Brisbane apartment tower, Quay Waterfront Newstead, part of its $1 billion Waterfront community.

Queensland Treasurer and Minister for Investment, Cameron Dick,&nbsp;joined Mirvac General Manager Build to Rent, Angela Buckley, and Mirvac General Manager Residential Queensland, Warwick Bible, to turn the first sod on the buildings.

The 25-level Quay Waterfront has already secured 70 per cent of its 143 riverside apartments, with prices starting from $475,000.

It will feature a luxury rooftop pool and entertainment area, exclusive shared dining room, wine room and ground-floor yoga studio, gym and wellness rooms. Construction is also anticipated for completion in early 2024.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=90553 project_image_fid=147609]

More than half the site area of Quay will be dedicated to open space, injecting more than 2,000 sqm of parkland to expand Waterfront Park.&nbsp;

Mirvac has also commenced construction on LIV Anura, their dual-tower $270 million built-to-rent project in the same precinct. It is set to be one of the first large-scale built to rent projects in Brisbane when completed in early 2024.&nbsp;

LIV Anura will contribute more than 1,000sqm of retail and deliver a new cross block linkage connecting Skyring Terrace and Festival Place for easy pedestrian access to the parkland and riverfront.

The development, which is being delivered in partnership with the Queensland Government as part of its Build to Rent Pilot Project, will have 395 apartments exclusively for renters, including 25 per cent for key workers, across the 23 level and 25 level buildings.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=90553 project_image_fid=147607]

The development will feature a dedicated community team, a suite of sustainability initiatives including 100 per cent renewable energy to all apartments and car, bike, scooter and E-bike share, and an entire level dedicated to facilities, such as a cinema, games room, yoga studio, gym, pool, co-working spaces and a pet park.

Mirvac General Manager Residential Queensland, Warwick Bible, said LIV Anura and Quay were the next transformative chapters in the mixed-use Waterfront Newstead community, which Mirvac had been delivering for two decades.

&ldquo;When we completed the first stage of Waterfront Newstead, Pier, in 2011 we spearheaded the urban renewal of Newstead and LIV Anura and Quay follow that proud legacy,&rdquo; Bible&nbsp;said.

&ldquo;The two projects complement each other, providing a range of new opportunities to live in this fantastic location, with our Quay apartments setting a new standard for holistic riverside living.

&ldquo;Quay is designed to make a statement with a bold organic architecture and lush landscaping spilling from its balconies, while inside residents enjoy refined interiors and stunning Brisbane River views.
