The long-awaited redevelopment of the former Eastlakes Shopping Centre site has reached a major milestone, with Conquest's plans for a new mixed-use precinct officially placed on public exhibition.

The State Significant Development Application would transform the 1.7-hectare site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/19a-evans-avenue-eastlakes-nsw-2018">19A Evans Avenue</a> into one of Sydney's largest urban renewal projects, delivering 736 apartments above a new shopping centre anchored by Woolworths, alongside specialty retail, dining, commercial space and new public open spaces.

The public exhibition marks the next chapter for the project after <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/conquest">Conquest</a> acquired the stalled Stage Two development from Crown Group, who completed the first stage across the road prior to their voluntary liquidation.

&nbsp;

Designed by DKO Architecture, the proposal comprises four residential buildings ranging from 14 to 18 storeys above a two-level retail podium. The development would deliver 736 apartments, including 74 affordable homes, 215 Build-to-Rent apartments and 521 market residences. Provision has also been made for dual-key apartments, which could increase the total number of dwellings to 877.

At ground level, the shopping centre has been designed as the suburb's new meeting place, anchored by a full-line Woolworths and complemented by a curated mix of fresh food retailers, cafés, restaurants, health services and everyday convenience shopping. Generous pedestrian links and landscaped public spaces will connect the retail precinct through to Jack Mundey Reserve, creating a more walkable and connected neighbourhood.

Conquest CEO Michael Akkawi said the redevelopment was about far more than replacing a shopping centre.

"Eastlakes has been overlooked for too long, and this is the community’s moment. We are building a shopping centre and homes, a genuine heart for the suburb, and we genuinely want locals to help shape it."

"We enrich communities through the creation of homes, places, and experiences designed for life, built to last, and owner for generations. That starts with listening, so we warmly encourage everyone with a connection to Eastlakes to view the plans and share their thoughts."

DKO said the design had been shaped by the site's landscape setting and surrounding open space.

"Our vision for the site embraces its unique Bidjigal identity by blending the residential living with generous landscaping and a material palette inspired by the Bidjigal locality, and celebrating the panoramic views to Botany Bay and the wetlands reserves."

"Taking cues from Country, we seek to harmonise built form with the landscape and lightly touch the earth. By reconnecting, retaining and regenerating existing ecology, and weaving in natural elements, we can deepen our connection to Country."

The landscape strategy extends across the podium and rooftops, incorporating communal gardens, children's play areas, lawns, community gardens, family gathering spaces and extensive tree planting. New landscaped links will also strengthen the connection between the precinct and Jack Mundey Reserve, while publicly accessible open spaces have been integrated throughout the development.

The proposal builds on Conquest's broader placemaking strategy for the site. Through an ongoing partnership, local artist Joe Rashbrook has been appointed Urban Art Curator, working alongside young residents to transform the project's site hoardings into a public art gallery that allows the community to engage with the redevelopment before construction is complete.

Conquest has rapidly expanded its development pipeline since acquiring the Eastlakes site, with more than $6 billion worth of mixed-use projects now in planning across Sydney, including Stanmore, Castlecrag and Waterloo.

Conquest CEO Michael Akkawi said the redevelopment was about far more than replacing a shopping centre.

Abadeen has lodged a State Significant Development Application (SSDA) for one of Mosman's largest apartment developments in recent years, seeking approval to transform the former Honeysuckle Garden and Midas site on Military Road into a 100-apartment mixed-use development.

The SSDA, lodged with investment partner Phoenix Property Investors, proposes around $230 million worth of new housing on the prominent <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/494-516-military-road-mosman-nsw-2088">494-516 Military Road</a> site.

The proposal comes as Mosman Council continues to progress its recently endorsed Masterplan, which identifies the precinct for increased housing density while maintaining the suburb's established character.

Designed by DKO Architecture, the development would comprise 100 apartments above ground-floor retail, with a rooftop wellness precinct including a gym, sauna, entertaining areas and landscaped communal spaces.

Rather than pushing to the full 12-storey height identified in Council's Masterplan, the proposal ranges between five and nine storeys, stepping down towards Hale Road. A tenth level would accommodate resident amenities rather than additional apartments.

The project has been designed to appeal to a broad range of buyers, from first home buyers and young professionals through to families and local downsizers looking to remain on the Lower North Shore.

<img alt="Mosman" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5dada03f-5b4c-43ba-ba62-2868add31440" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-27%20at%209.57.55%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=7LBy0B.Jo8_iWAFJsClcV7Q3UnXrv49r" />

Abadeen Executive Chairman Justin Brown said the apartments had been designed as genuine long-term homes rather than investor-focused stock.

"The apartments have been designed as genuine long-term homes, with efficient floorplans that maximise usable living areas, generous storage, natural light and strong connections between indoor and outdoor spaces," Brown says."

"We've focused on creating homes for a broad range of buyers, from first home buyers and growing families through to downsizers who want to remain in Mosman."

The rooftop wellness offering forms a key part of the proposal, with residents set to have access to a gym, sauna, outdoor entertaining spaces, communal dining areas, landscaped gardens and a multi-use recreation court overlooking Sydney Harbour.

<img alt="Mosman" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d37c2d6b-583a-4a0f-b7a9-9f46b893d2f4" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-27%20at%209.58.06%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=FPoa5FCm2RtzjhAh2w5FTWJbV6GHfY8D" />

DKO drew heavily on the site's natural and cultural history, undertaking a Connecting with Country process with local Aboriginal Elders to inform the architectural and landscape design.

Senior Associate Matthew Ritchard said the design sought to create a building that responded to both the site's landscape and its cultural significance.

"The architectural language of the project is a deep expression of Connecting with Country, where the materiality and colour palette serve as a bridge between the site's geological history and its future as a residential sanctuary."

The proposal also retains the site's established blue gum tree as the centrepiece of the communal landscaped gardens, while introducing activated retail fronting Military Road to strengthen the connection between Mosman and Cremorne villages.

If approved, the project would deliver 100 new homes within walking distance of shops, public transport, schools and local amenities, adding to the limited pipeline of new apartments on the Lower North Shore.

The wave of apartment proposals sweeping through Mosman shows no signs of slowing, with another major residential development lodged through the NSW Government's State Significant Development pathway.

Developer First Quadrant Properties, which recently completed Willoughby Grounds and has several projects in planning across the North Shore, has unveiled plans for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/cove-on-ourimbah-40-56-ourimbah-road-mosman-nsw-2088">Cove on Ourimbah</a>, a 63-apartment development on Ourimbah Road, adding to the growing pipeline of projects reshaping one of Sydney's most tightly held harbour suburbs.

The proposal would consolidate nine properties at 40-56 Ourimbah Road into a part eight, part nine-storey apartment building, continuing the momentum created by the NSW Government's accelerated planning pathways that have seen several significant developments emerge across Mosman over the past 12 months.

Designed by Doroch Architects, the project would deliver 63 apartments, resident wellness facilities including a gym, pool and sauna, landscaped communal spaces and basement parking, while using recessed upper levels, generous setbacks and extensive planting to reduce the perceived scale of the building.

<img alt="First look: First Quadrant Properties eyes nine-storey Mosman apartment project under State Significant pathway" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="32ee68e4-141e-4a10-8f83-48e961a5e71e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Ourimbah%20Road%2C%20Mosman%20a.png?VersionId=CUeILFc6APlwXPc.iplElbxHvREKwjig" />

Doroch Architects said the building had been designed to reinforce Mosman's established character.

"The building's aesthetic is grounded in the existing residential character of Ourimbah Road and the broader Mosman context," the architect noted in the planning documents submitted to the NSW Government.

The design adopts a contemporary material palette of natural stone, textured concrete and brown concave metal cladding, complemented by integrated planters and deep balconies. The podium incorporates softened curved concrete forms, while increased setbacks have been provided adjacent to the heritage-listed property at 60 Ourimbah Road to create a more sympathetic transition.

The site sits around 330 metres from Mosman Town Centre, placing it within the NSW Government's Low and Mid-Rise Housing policy area, where increased residential density is being encouraged close to shops, transport and services.

The proposal follows a string of major apartment projects lodged or declared State Significant in Mosman in recent months, including Abadeen's 100-apartment Honeysuckle Garden redevelopment on Military Road and several other developments across Awaba Street, Redan Street and Muston Street from the likes of Time &amp; Place, HELM and Prosker Property.

A new State Significant Development Application (SSDA) could reshape a prominent vacant site in Gosford's CBD, with Ming Tian Real Property proposing a mixed-use precinct that combines affordable housing, retail activation and a new public plaza.

The proposal for 43-45 Beane Street and 2 Keevers Lane would deliver a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/43-45-beane-street-gosford-nsw-2250">two-building development</a> comprising a 26-storey residential tower and a five-storey affordable housing building above ground-floor commercial space. A key focus of the project is the delivery of dedicated affordable housing alongside new public domain improvements designed to transform Keevers Lane into a more active urban destination.

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/tony-owen-partners">Tony Owen Partners</a>, the development would provide 130 apartments, including 20 affordable housing dwellings managed by a registered community housing provider for at least 15 years. The market housing component comprises 110 apartments across a mix of one, two and three-bedroom residences, while the affordable housing includes six one-bedroom, 13 two-bedroom and one three-bedroom apartment. The proposal also incorporates 416 sqm of ground-floor retail, three basement levels accommodating 140 car spaces, 42 bicycle spaces, communal open space and extensive landscaping.

<img alt="First look: Ming Tian Real Property plans landmark affordable housing tower for Gosford city centre" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9b858791-9060-4ee7-9178-44cb9e640a85" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Beane%20Street%20b_0.png?VersionId=_jbY0mqPEs7.jBZxozR7d6T4u85FoPmb" />

The affordable housing component has been distributed across both buildings, with four apartments located within the main tower and a dedicated five-storey building delivering a further 16 affordable homes. The project also includes 12 adaptable apartments and 24 dwellings designed to Silver Level Liveable Housing Guidelines.

The architectural design draws inspiration from Indigenous storytelling.

"The design is based on the indigenous motif of the Rainbow Serpent," Tony Owen Partners said in the Design Verification Statement.

"The Rainbow Serpent is a traditional totem of coastal eastern Australia. It represents natural forces, creation, change, and rebirth and is often associated with bodies of water. This motif can be seen in the undulation of the balconies rising on the building," Tony Owen Partners said in the Design Verification Statement.

Beyond the residential offering, the proposal seeks to revitalise the surrounding public realm, particularly Keevers Lane.

"The ground floor streetscape includes a commercial and dining precinct which will significantly improve the amenity of the area. This strategy transforms a currently inhospitable laneway into a thriving centre of urban renewal and day and night time activation to compliment the new adjoining UNC facilities," the architects said.

<img alt="First look: Ming Tian Real Property plans landmark affordable housing tower for Gosford city centre" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="36b0ca6b-af15-424c-81db-9f3049c07b0c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Beane%20Street%20podium.png?VersionId=QCAv7bCitrg3zIGZUHI2z_HR8qVfKbp1" />

The Environmental Impact Statement notes that the project aims to "improve the provision of diverse housing options within Gosford City Centre, enhancing the mixed-use precinct by delivering high quality residential development, whilst concurrently providing a diverse range of housing choices through the provision of affordable housing, which is in growing need within the Gosford City Centre."

The site occupies approximately 2,070 sqm in the Gosford city centre, around 250 metres from Gosford Railway Station and within walking distance of Gosford Hospital, Mann Street's retail precinct and the University of Newcastle's Gosford campus currently under construction. The currently vacant site previously received approval for a lower-scale residential development, with the new proposal leveraging the NSW Government's in-fill affordable housing pathway to increase density while introducing dedicated affordable housing.

Developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/bottega-property-group">Bottega House</a> has secured council approval for its first Brisbane project - a $270 million luxury residential development on an absolute riverfront site in leafy St Lucia.&nbsp;

The 15-storey project, known as <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/st-lucia-by-bottega-house-180-macquarie-street-st-lucia-qld-4067">St Lucia by Bottega House</a> , will occupy a prime north-facing site at 178-180 Macquarie Street, directly fronting the Brisbane River in the established inner-west suburb known for its rowing clubs, golf courses and sprawling University of Queensland campus.&nbsp;

St Lucia by Bottega House will feature a suite of amenities including dedicated wellness spaces, a mineral pool and cold plunge. The project has been positioned to attract affluent owner-occupiers seeking high-quality, house-sized apartments.&nbsp;

Bottega House has been set up by co-directors Nick Malloch, Louis Mennes and Craig Marsh.

Malloch said the project drew inspiration from its Brisbane River setting and leafy inner-west surrounds, while responding to the demands of discerning locals looking to transition from freestanding homes into apartment living.&nbsp;

"With an expansive river frontage and lush green surrounds, we knew we had to create something special that reflects the natural beauty of the location while offering residents masterfully crafted homes," said Malloch.&nbsp;

"Our intent was to complement the project's quiet, private setting by introducing residences that offer a calm retreat and sanctuary from the everyday. The result is a harmonious blend of architecture, interiors and amenity that emphasises wellbeing, comfort and beauty without excess."&nbsp;

Malloch added that project consultants had been carefully selected in alignment with Bottega House's commitment to care, quality and attention to detail. The design team includes architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/plus-studio">Plus Studio</a>, interiors practice <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/mim-design">Mim Design</a> and landscaping by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/urbis">Urbis</a>.&nbsp;

Three-bedroom apartments are expected to start around $5 millio. Selling agents Keenan &amp; Byrne said the pricing strategy for the project was anticipated to achieve upwards of $25,500 per square metre.&nbsp;

The project's development approval this week follows the success of Bottega House's inaugural Queensland project - a 22-storey collection of full-floor sky homes at Broadbeach on the Gold Coast which included the sale of a two-storey penthouse at a record price for a beachside residence.&nbsp;

St Lucia by Bottega House is expected to launch to market in November, with construction anticipated to be completed mid 2029.

A private Asian buyer has splashed out $46 million on an Ashfield office.
The 223-227 Liverpool Road building had previously been bought by GDI Property Group in December 2016 for $35 million.
Knight Frank’s Tyler Talbot and Dominic Ong brokered the deal in conjunction with Savills on behalf of the GDI No 42 Office Trust.  
Talbot said that the property is 100% let to Property NSW (Department of Family &amp; Community Services) until December 2020. 
“Situated on a high profile corner site of approximately 2,812 square metres and zoned B4 mixed-use, 223-227 Liverpool Road has potential for redevelopment, with the incoming owner planning to refurbish the building,” he said.
“The six level office building comprises circa 9,719 square metres of NLA with basement parking for 185 cars, along with large efficient floor plates and excellent natural light.”
The property was marketed as offering convenient access to Sydney CBD, as well as shops, cafes and restaurants.

Fully leased, the 1985 building has a 4.5 Star NABERS Energy Rating and an estimated net income of around $2.9 million.
It last traded for $30 million in 2015 and is being sold via an expressions of interest campaign that ends on the 8th of August.
Corelogic recently reported the commercial property market in Parramatta was "gaining strength" with $757 million worth of sales reported in the year to March 2018. 
It included the sale of 1-3 Fitzwilliam Street at $82 million by Raffles Education Corporation Ltd, which has its headquarters in Singapore and is listed on the Singapore Exchange.
The purchaser, the Propertylink Group, is a leading investment manager of Australian investment grade property. 
According to Parramatta Cityscope 1-3 Fitzwilliam Street is a seven-storey office building with basement car parking for 106 vehicles plus a roof-top sports floor, tennis court and sauna.
Raffles bought the building for $29 million in 2014.

EG, one of Australia’s leading real estate fund managers, has acquired the first asset for the High Income Sustainable Office Trust (HISOT). 
The East Block asset is a strategically located heritage asset in the Parliamentary Triangle, Canberra. 
EG will improve the energy efficiency of the building by leveraging technological advances and active asset management under the HISOT mandate. It will form a key part of the future revitalisation of the Canberra precinct.
“EG are pleased to see the compelling sustainable investment fund launch with a strongly placed asset that will benefit from the uplift in energy savings and active asset management strategy,” say EG's Aurelio di Napoli.
The property has a net lettable area of approximately 4,958 sqm and has an eight year WALE following the completion of Lessor works. The current tenant is the National Archives of Australia.
EG’s HISOT fund had its first close in 2016. The fund mandate is to target assets that will benefit from raising the NABERS rating. It is underpinned by a strong ethical and environmental commitment by the unit holders that will reduce the overall impact of a building while driving a significant increase in the asset value.
The Clean Energy Finance Corporation was a cornerstone equity investor in HISOT.
 CEFC Investment Funds Lead Rory Lonergan said the CEFC is delighted to see their investment in HISOT contributing to energy efficiency improvements in this iconic precinct.
"This is another demonstration of the flexibility and suitability of clean energy across our built environment.
"It’s absolutely vital that new buildings are built to the highest energy standards as we move to zero carbon emissions.
"It’s equally important that we make these improvements to existing buildings, extending their life as well as ensuring they benefit from latest technologies which reduce energy costs and lower their carbon footprint.
“Through our investment in the HISOT, the CEFC is keen to see the development and refurbishment of older buildings. 
"Energy efficient buildings have lower operating costs and have the potential to provide higher net operating income with lower vacancy rates, providing clear benefits to building owners, investors and tenants.”
The vendor was Commonwealth of Australia and the deal was brokered by Tony Massaro and the PwC Real Estate Advisory Team in Sydney.

The Gosford ATO office building, which is still under construction, is under offer, through the real estate agency Colliers International.
The <a href="https://www.colliers.com.au/114152/" target="_blank">99 Georgiana Terrace and 38 Mann Street</a> holding, comprises a 7,150 sqm office building to be completed in late 2017 and a two-storey heritage building which will be renovated for retail, café or boutique office use.
The Commonwealth Government has committed to a 10-year lease in 99 Georgiana Terrace, with two further options of five-years, representing 97 percent of the asset’s total income.
The properties were marketed through an expressions of interest campaign that closed on October 5.
“Offered by one of Canberra’s largest investment and development companies, Doma Group, this property is an incredible opportunity in the Central Coast’s commercial hub,” said Paul Powderly of Colliers International, who along with his colleagues Tim Mutton, Adam Leacy and James Barber were tasked with the marketing campaign.
The total net lettable area is 7,380 sqm.
The office building, close to Gosford CBD, delivers a secure income stream due to its high-profile tenancy in the Commonwealth Government and a fixed 3.5% review mechanism over the term of the lease.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2017/11/7/Gosford2.jpg" alt="">
The population of the NSW Central Coast is expected to grow by 70,000 to around 409,000 over the next two decades, which will require over 30,000 new jobs to be created over the next 16 years.
“Gosford is perfectly primed to benefit from its proximity to Sydney, growing population and beautiful surrounds,” said Adam Leacy.
“The property is bounded by Georgiana Terrace and Mann Street, only minutes from the CBD and adjacent to Gosford City Park, meaning it is the ideal location for office space in this booming part of the New South Wales economy."
The Doma Group has been a significant participant in the property industry across the residential, commercial, retail and hospitality sectors for over 40 years – and recently secured the rights to develop the new 13,000 sqm ACT Government office in Dickson with a 20 year pre-commitment.

Nissan's Dandenong South headquarters sold for $35 million

<html><body>
A fully leased office building in Port Melbourne is on the market with expectations of more than $40 million.
The four-level building at <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/property-offices-vic-port+melbourne-502554838" target="_blank">187 Todd Road</a> is home to five high-profile tenants, including Wesfarmers’ Workwear Group, Emirates Retail Leisure and George Weston Foods, returning about $2,687,020 per annum in net passing income.
The asset will be sold via an expressions of interest campaign closing October 11.
The marketing is being handled for on behalf of Terraplex by Colliers International’s Peter Bremner, Rob Joyes and Leigh Melbourne, along with Dawkins Occhiuto’s Andrew Dawkins, Walter Occhiuto and Chris Jones.
Bremner said they were expecting interest from local and offshore private investors, syndicates and institutions.
“The property has always attracted blue-chip tenants,” he said.
“The tenancy is currently headlined by Workwear Group, Emirates Retail Leisure and George Weston Foods, generating a diversified income stream with a varied expiry profile.”
“There are no imminent lease expiries and all leases are structured with fixed annual reviews, which contributes to a diversified 4.1-year WALE.”
Fairfax Media added that the building was initially built for Boeing Industries nearly 20 years ago, and previously occupied by Kraft Foods.
Dawkins said the Fishermans Bend location, opposite the state government’s recently purchased General Motors site, was a key selling point.
“Fishermans Bend is undeniably the next chapter in Melbourne’s employment, industry and population growth story,” he said.
Port Melbourne office rents are also more affordable compared with those in other markets, such as the city fringe, St Kilda Road, South Melbourne and the inner east
“The average office rent for 187 Todd Road is circa $250 per sqm per annum and, being located outside the city’s Congestion Levy zone, the property presents occupiers with a 35 to 40 per cent total occupancy cost saving when compared to the surrounding office markets,” said Joyes.
“With city-fringe vacancy sitting at about 2.09 per cent, and limited new supply in the pipeline for Port Melbourne, rental growth is expected to be strong into the future.”
The building has a net lettable area (NLA) of about 9,212.7 sqm, a 3.5-star NABERS rating and 344 undercover car spaces, plus 10 on-grade visitor parks.
