ASX-listed developer Cedar Woods is progressing its plans for its Southbank arts precinct site.&nbsp;

The developer has filed plans, which are now with the&nbsp;Department of Transport and Planning, for a new 20-level tower at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/141-151-sturt-street-southbank-vic-3006">141–151 Sturt Street</a>, a 2,718 sqm block opposite the Habitat Filter sculpture.

The proposal seeks to demolish the two-level&nbsp;commercial building, including a small supermarket and medical tenancies, and create a new building with 180 apartments and a focus on an&nbsp;active public realm and arts integration.

&nbsp;

<img alt="Southbank site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="76a72db6-91ef-43ae-827d-a9cfa72893d2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Site.png?VersionId=DZgtB4K6BswVh0QtCs3iLjXaLp0CbcEb" />

&nbsp;

There will be a full mix of apartment configurations, including 28 studio apartments, 16 one-bedroom, 104 two-bedroom, and 32 three-bedroom units.

Retail, creative arts, and residential amenity functions are integrated across the lower levels. A food and drink tenancy is planned to front Dodds Street, while a retail tenancy fronting Sturt Street will be accessed via an elevated walkway. The first floor includes a substantial 734 sqm creative arts space, envisioned to support Melbourne’s growing cultural and digital industries.

Architecture firm <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has put together the plans. In their&nbsp;Urban Design Report they highlighted the project’s ambition to embed itself within Southbank’s evolving cultural fabric.

A central feature of the design is a through-block link connecting Sturt and Dodds Streets, landscaped with native plantings and embedded with universal access ramps.

“The ramp has been thoughtfully integrated as the primary access point, ensuring universal accessibility for all users,” the report noted, with the link offering “a direct response to the urban planning scheme of creating more green spaces within our communities”.

<img alt="Southbank podium" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4d24b1b2-d69c-4a11-a11d-ec6df432221c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/podium.png?VersionId=geWoJyZDmPSLODZ_.PNJ0LvpOmyyCdpo" />

The building’s podium form responds to the mandatory height limits along Dodds Street and maintains a fine-grain interface to adjoining developments. Above the podium, the tower is articulated with recessed balconies and a focus on views toward the CBD and surrounding arts institutions. A communal rooftop recreation deck and indoor lounge are positioned on level four, adjoining seven apartments and providing over 900 sqm of resident amenity space.

Vehicle access and loading will be provided via Dodds Street, with 155 resident car spaces located across two basement levels and the first three above-ground floors. Bicycle storage is more generous, with 226 spaces distributed across resident, staff and visitor needs.

Rothelowman describes the architecture as “humanist,” with ground-level interfaces designed to encourage social interaction and provide a dignified entry for both residents and passers-by. “All street interfaces are crafted to invite and nurture human connections,” the design report states. “The façade transitions to a human scale, providing an approachable and engaging streetscape”.

Cedar Woods, while well-known for its large communities it develops outside of Australia's capital cities, they have recently developed in Melbourne's inner-ring before. They are approaching completion at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/88-leveson-north-melbourne-88-leveson-street-north-melbourne-vic-3051">88 Leveson</a>, just 15 townhouses in the heart of North Melbourne.

Cedar Woods progresses with new apartment plans in Southbank arts precinct

Brisbane developers Core Property Partners and Vector Property Australia has teamed up for Brisbane's newest apartment development.

The duo identified <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/east-brisbane-qld-4169">East Brisbane</a> as their preferred suburb, on the fringe of the Gabba Precinct, where they've just revealed BANKSII, 72 apartments opposite Raymond Park.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5481]

The one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments will sit in a glass-wrapped building that will also feature a rooftop with an&nbsp;infinity-edge pool, a BBQ area and alfresco dining spaces, sun lounges, and a sauna, as well as a resident-only gym and a ground-floor cafe.

Rhett Williams, Director of Vector Property Australia, said the project will lift the quality of the East Brisbane community and set a new benchmark.

"In Brisbane’s current property landscape, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/banksii-east-brisbane-169-wellington-road-east-brisbane-qld-4169">BANKSII</a> stands out through its emphasis on lifestyle-oriented living, connectivity and sophisticated design," Williams says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5479]

The 10-level building has been designed by MAS Architecture. Their designs were inspired by the native Banksia flower, with the architecture and interiors reflecting the organic symmetry of its namesake flora. MAS has interpreted this throughout the building’s curved form, façade detailing and interior palette.&nbsp;

The building’s flowing geometry and natural tones are complemented by large balconies and floor-to-ceiling glazing, maximising cross-breezes, daylight and views over the city, parklands and river.

“Having a strong narrative for a building helps us architecturally,” MAS noted. "We can choose colours that come off that species of flowers. The trunk and the trees and the flower elements all are now visible in our joinery on the inside and in our architectural finishes on the outside."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5485]

Apartments will feature timber floors, soft porcelain tiles, brushed bronze fittings, and stone benchtops with warm veining.&nbsp;

Kitchens feature premium SMEG appliances and generous storage, while bathrooms have been designed as calming retreats with curved cabinetry and twin sinks in the master ensuites.

The building will feature a suite of rooftop and wellness amenities. Residents will have access to an infinity-edge pool, BBQ and alfresco dining areas, sun lounges and a rooftop sauna.&nbsp;

A residents-only gym will be located on the podium level, while a ground-floor café and landscaped laneway will further activate the site and improve neighbourhood connectivity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5488]

BANKSII will rise from a prime Wellington Road site, with the building oriented to overlook the adjacent Raymond Park and take in extensive city views. It is also on the doorstep of key&nbsp;lifestyle infrastructure, including the future Kangaroo Point Green Bridge, The Gabba stadium, and the planned Brisbane Live arena.&nbsp;

Public transport options, including ferry, bus and rail - including the future Cross River Rail Woolloongabba station - are all nearby, supporting a car-optional lifestyle just minutes from the CBD.

Williams said the team spent over a year searching for the ideal site before securing this location.

"We were attracted to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/east-brisbane-qld-4169">East Brisbane</a> as it is a vibrant and growing community that offers a perfect balance of urban convenience and natural beauty with the parklands and river on our doorstep.”

The project is part of the broader Woolloongabba Games precinct, which is undergoing significant investment in the lead-up to the 2032 Brisbane Olympics. This urban renewal, coupled with infrastructure upgrades, is expected to enhance long-term liveability and capital growth in the area.

Given the wide max of configurations, BANKSII is expected to suit everyone from first home buyers and investors to families and downsizers.

BANKSII sales launch in booming East Brisbane apartment market

The Minns Labor Government will deliver Sydney’s first new heavy rail station in more than a decade – enabling up to 10,000 new homes by rezoning land around Woollahra and Edgecliff stations, right next to the CBD, to tackle the housing crisis and rebalance growth across the city.

Recent reports by the NSW Productivity Commission have warned that Sydney is losing twice as many young people as it is gaining, while also finding that Woollahra is the most feasible Local Government Area (LGA) in New South Wales to build new housing.

Despite this, housing approvals in Woollahra consistently lag well behind other LGAs, and the population has declined by 11 per cent over the past 50 years while Greater Sydney as a whole has grown by 74 per cent.

The new station that will be an eight-minute trip from Sydney CBD, will be located on the Eastern Suburbs train line in Woollahra, where a station build was started in the 1970s but never completed.

To enable the delivery of new homes the NSW Government will lead a rezoning of Woollahra and Edgecliff stations similar to other state led rezonings to allow additional homes to be built around the stations.

Affordable housing will also make up a proportion of development on the site with the final amount of affordable housing required, to be determined as part of the rezoning process.

The area surrounding the new station is within walking distance of major green and recreational space including Cooper, Trumper, Rushcutters Bay and Centennial Parks.

The Eastern Suburbs train line between Bondi Junction and Sydney CBD also has the lowest passenger usage rates during the AM peak of any line on the Sydney network, with only 43 per cent of operating capacity during the AM peak currently being utilised by passengers.

Sydney Water and Infrastructure NSW have confirmed there is capacity in the water and wastewater systems to accommodate the proposed 10,000 dwellings without major upgrades.

The rezoning is expected to take around two years and will further support the Government’s housing targets that rebalance the delivery of new homes around existing infrastructure.

Fresh off completing its mixed-use Malvern project Malvern Collective, Kokoda Property Group has acquired a prime site on Richmond's Bridge Road.

They are planning a mid-rise residential development with&nbsp;integrated wellness amenities and a vibrant ground-floor retail and dining offering.

The site, at&nbsp;487–495 Bridge Road, spans&nbsp;1,650 sqm with 50 metres of dual frontage across Bridge Road and Palmer Street. It is currently leased to Adairs, and has a large retail building and 20 onsite car parks.
</section>

<section data-element_type="section" data-id="534a164">
Kokoda Property Group’s acquisition forms part of a broader phase of growth in Melbourne, building on momentum from the completion of Malvern Collective and the recent purchase of a Burnley Street site for the developer’s first commercial project.&nbsp;

Mark Stevens, Kokoda Property Group’s Founder and Managing Director, said that the company’s Bridge Road site acquisition signals confidence in a city that is re-accelerating.

“Melbourne is regaining momentum,"&nbsp;Stevens said.

"After a cautious period post-COVID, we’re seeing buyer sentiment stabilise and capital leaning back into well-located, quality projects. Victoria now benefits from deep builder capacity and competitive delivery pricing, creating a rare opportunity to bring design-led inner-city developments to market without compromising on craftsmanship.

“Richmond ticks all the boxes for us – connectivity, culture and everyday amenity – making Bridge Road the perfect address for an amenity-rich, multi-use development."

<img alt="Kokoda" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9a8de51d-8092-480a-8b7e-e081816692c2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-08-29%20at%208.54.27%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=VRHpV5.6beOu2cieKHWrw3ErMPuVOAuj" />

Envisioned as an “urban lantern” the building will bring a distinctive new presence to Bridge Road with a sculptural retail frontage, designed to honour the street’s heritage character while contributing to its renewal.

Stevens said the acquisition reflects the developer’s commitment to design-led addresses in Melbourne’s inner city.

“Drawing on Richmond’s rich heritage and dynamic character, we’ve envisioned a contemporary building that respects the past while elevating the way people live today. With dual frontages, curated ground-floor spaces, and a focus on wellness, this project will contribute to the neighbourhood’s evolution, appealing to both downsizers and a new generation of professionals.”

Kokoda Property will now progress concept design ahead of a future planning process.

First look: Kokoda secures Richmond site for new apartment development

Gold Coast developer Drew Group is fast approaching sell-out at its Main Beach apartment development, Lagoon Main Beach.

In the last nine months, Drew Group and sales partner Pezet Matheson have secured 31 sales totalling over $75 million, as the two-tower development advances towards completion under the expert eye of Hutchinson Builders.

“Today's buyers are more discerning than ever," Drew Group Managing Director Jon Drew says.

"It's essential to provide something truly unique that sets a development apart, and we believe Lagoon has achieved just that."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=193023]

Just over 50 per cent of recent&nbsp;sales have been to local buyers, reflecting the deep trust and connection within the Gold Coast community that Drew Group has developed over the years.

Demand has been particularly robust at the top end, with two of the three exclusive penthouses already sold, alongside five sub-penthouses. Only seven apartments remain in Lagoon's Signature Series — one&nbsp;penthouse and six sub-penthouses.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=284864]

Drew Group has also removed the much-maligned sunset clause from all contracts at Lagoon. The sunset clause — although rarely invoked, yet on occasion known to have been — allows developers to take back contracts on apartments should the building not be completed within the timeframe specified in the contract.

Pezet Matheson Co-Director Jayde Pezet says the fact Lagoon is&nbsp;within a year of completion, and has no sunset clause in contracts, provides certainty to buyers.

"This is paramount in the current market," Pezet says.

Drew Group has committed to providing the highest level of security inclusions — none more impressive than the Ubiquity Access Control System, a cutting-edge facial recognition technology that is one of the most state-of-the-art keyless entry systems on the market.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=190743]

One of the biggest drawcards to Lagoon has been the size of the apartments.

"It is unlikely that any future new development in Main Beach will be able to offer such spacious living at this price point," Drew says.

"Today's buyers are more discerning than ever, carefully evaluating amenities like gyms, spas, workspaces, and beach lockers, along with quality finishes. It's essential to provide something truly unique that sets a development apart, and we believe Lagoon has achieved just that."

Lagoon is set to complete construction in mid-2026.

Homicide Squad detectives have charged a third man with one count of attempted murder following a shooting in Point Cook in February.
The 29-year-old Irish national, from Point Cook, was arrested at a Melbourne airport on Sunday about 9pm.
He was remanded in custody and will appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court tomorrow.
The arrest follows the shooting of a 53-year-old Sydney estate agent, Sid Morgan on Thursday 21 February in which detectives are still appealing for public assistance.
Investigators are trying to locate two vehicles, both white Toyota Hilux Rugged utilities, believed linked to the shooting with investigators believing they could be anywhere in the Melbourne metropolitan area or possibly as far north in the state as Nagambie.
Two men arrested in Broken Head, NSW on 27 February in relation to the shooting have each been charged with one count of attempted murder.
The 30-year-old and the 26-year-old, both from Point Cook, were remanded in custody and will appear again at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 27 May 2019.

Police charge third man over estate agent Sid Morgan's Point Cook shooting 

<html><body>
Sid Morgan, the Hills district estate agent shot in the face in Melbourne, remains on life support.
The update was advised by prosecutors during a court appearance yesterday by two Irishmen charged with his attempted murder.
Prosecutors said Mr Morgan is on life support but defence lawyers claim the description of his condition could be an “exaggeration’’.
Prosecutors in Melbourne Magistrates Court said Sid Morgan remains in an induced coma.
Mark Dixon, 30, and Jack Harvey, 26, were arrested in NSW near Byron Bay last Wednesday over the Point Cook shooting on February 21.
Dixon and Harvey were extradited to Victoria.
Both have been charged with attempting to murder Mr Morgan, 53, in the middle of a street after an argument in the western Melbourne suburb.

Homicide Squad detectives are appealing for public assistance to help locate two men they would like to speak to in relation to a shooting at Point Cook on 21 February.
Warrants have been issued for the arrest of 30-year-old Mark Dixon (who also sometimes goes by the surname Murphy) and 26-year-old Jack Harvey who are believed to be in the Byron Bay area in New South Wales.
The Daily Telegraph reported police raided a Suffolk Park motel room, on the outskirts of the town, yesterday but it had been vacated.
Investigators would like to speak to the two Point Cook men following the shooting of a 53-year-old man at a Spraypoint Drive home about 11pm.
<a href="/news/hills-shire-sydney-estate-agent-sid-morgan-shot-at-point-cook">Sid Morgan, the Hills Shire, Sydney estate agent</a>, suffered serious head injuries after a shot to his forehead in an incident on a Point Cook cul de sac last Thursday evening.
Two men have been questioned by Victoria Police over the shooting that left Morgan fighting for life in the Royal Melbourne Hospital.
Sid Morgan, 53, was shot in the head in Spraypoint Drive at Point Cook about 11pm.
Neighbours said they heard an argument before a gunshot went off.
The Sydney man remains in hospital with life-threatening injuries.
Two Point Cook men, aged 29 and 30, were arrested on Saturday however have since been released without charge.
Dixon is described as 180 cm tall, with a medium build, short brown hair, a fair complexion and speaks with an Irish accent.
Harvey is described as having a slim build, short brown hair, a goatee beard and also speaks with an Irish accent.
Anyone who sees Dixon or Harvey is urged not to approach them and to call Triple Zero (000).
In 1995, Morgan, who previously went by the name of Said, was a detective in NSW police force in the 1990s.
He became aware of allegations that his brother-in-law, Mansour Suha, had been molesting three young girls, two of them his young relatives. He then shot Suha, shooting the man six times.
In 1996 a jury rejected the Crown argument that it was a revenge shooting, finding Mr Morgan instead acted out of fear for the girls' safety.
A jury took 33 minutes to decide his actions were justified. 
He was however refused reinstatement into the NSW police force.

Irish accented pair sought by Victoria Police after Sid Morgan's Point Cook shooting

<html><body>
Sid Morgan, the Hills Shire, Sydney estate agent, suffered serious head injuries after a shot to his forehead in an incident on a Point Cook cul de sac last Thursday evening.
Two men have been questioned by Victoria Police over the shooting that left Morgan fighting for life in the Royal Melbourne Hospital.
Sid Morgan, 53, was shot in the head in Spraypoint Drive at Point Cook about 11pm.
Neighbours said they heard an argument before a gunshot went off.
Security cameras captured a ute rushing from the cul de sac.
Three white cars were dusted for prints. 
Police have not yet revealed the motive of the crime. 
Investigators have spoken to a 29-year-old Point Cook man, located at Nagambie, north of Melbourne, and a 30-year-old man in Point Cook.
They were later released pending further inquiries.
Members of the police search and rescue team were set to search the lake at Sanctuary Lakes as part of the investigation.
Morgan promoted himself as <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/agent/sid-morgan-1907894" target="_blank">The Hills number one agent</a> having been an estate agent since 1997.
His website profile suggests Sid has personally held records in five different suburbs at the one time.
He prompted himself as an agent with a 'Never Say Die' attitude.
His record prices have included a <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-nsw-bella+vista-126245378" target="_blank">2017 Bella Vista sale at $3,335,000</a>.
His last sale according to the realestate.com.au website was at Cherrybrook last September.
Throughthe years he has secured sales ranging from a $4.5 million sale at Newport on the northern beaches to $3.35 million at Sylvania Waters in Sydney's south.
The Sunday Herald Sun reported he had been travelling between Melbourne and Sydney where he was still working as a real estate agent. 
Property Observer saw Morgan two weeks ago at a Lane Cove open for inspection of a $8 million seven-bedroom home which was targeting the Chinese buyer, by keeping as many lucky number eight's as possible.
The price guide has been dropped from $8.8 million, which it was when listed last year, to $8,088,000.
The home previously sold at a suburb record when paying $4.25 million three years ago.
The late 1980s home, built from double brick and suspended concrete slab construction, has been opulently renovated throughout.
It has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a fully self-contained guest quarters and a five car, auto entry garage.
It sits in 1,810 sqm of private resort style grounds which feature a floodlit, championship size tennis court with incorporated basketball court, a solar heated swimming pool and a gym.
The tennis court is one of only a few in the whole suburb.
The marketing says the process of obtaining council approval to turn the property into four luxury three level townhouses with internal lifts is well underway.
Sid Morgan operated Morgan One Stop Realty at Castle Hill, then Morgans.
He launched an innovative virtual office at Castle Towers in 2006.
His virtual office was set to consist of a centralised administration office which Sid Morgan refers to as the mother ship, and satellite offices.
Morgan says each satellite office will consist of a four-workstation unit which can be located in any high pedestrian traffic area.
He had won a Hills Excellence In Business Award for his interactive real estate displays at the front of his office.
The machines, about the size of an ATM, was able to provide buyers with a complete interactive tour of the property.
"I was one of the first agents in Australia, and the first in the Hills district to start using this technology,'' he noted in 2005.
His website noted he ran Morgans Foundation of Hope a charitable organisation having publicly commit 8% of the companies gross turnover to the foundation.
Morgan was a former detective acquitted of murder.
Said Morgan was a detective in the New South Wales police force, and had become aware of allegations that his brother-in-law, Mansour Suha, had been sexually molesting three young girls, including two of Morgan’s relatives. 
Morgan, then known as Said Morgan, was accused of the shooting murder of his brother-in-law, Mansour Suha, on 26 May 1995 at a home at Oakhurst.
 He was not convicted for the killing, because he believed the lives of the children who had been molested were in danger.
He was acquitted of murder and later reinvented himself as a real estate agent.

ASIC has applied to the Federal Court of Australia for the appointment of provisional liquidators to Aviation 3030 Pty Ltd (Aviation) related to that company’s operation of a property investment scheme involving 98 hectares of land at Point Cook, Victoria.
ASIC’s application has been listed for hearing in the Federal Court of Australia in Melbourne on 27 September 2018.
ASIC is seeking:
<ul>
<li>the appointment of George Georges and John Lindholm of Ferrier Hodgson as provisional liquidators of Aviation; and</li>
<li>orders requiring the provisional liquidators to provide a report to the court which sets out, among other things, the identity of Aviation investors (which includes shareholders and unitholders), the financial position of Aviation, and an opinion as to the validity of the issue of 63% of shares in Aviation to a director and former director.</li>
</ul>
The grounds of ASIC’s application include that:
<ul>
<li>there is a justifiable lack of confidence in Aviation’s management;</li>
<li>Aviation issued shares without a prospectus when one was required; and</li>
<li>the Aviation scheme is an unregistered managed investment scheme which was required to be registered with ASIC.</li>
</ul>
Once the provisional liquidators’ report has been provided to the Court, ASIC will consider whether it should seek orders from the Court for the winding up of Aviation and the managed investment scheme it operates through five separate trusts (the Aviation scheme). ASIC will also consider whether to seek orders to wind up all of the trustee companies involved in the Aviation scheme, each of which are controlled by Aviation directors, as follows:
1.      Aviation3030 Investment Pty Ltd
2.      Aviation3030 Holdings Pty Ltd
3.      Aviation 3030 Heng Ly Pty Ltd
4.      Point Cook Aviation3030 Pty Ltd
5.      Aviation 3030 HL Pty Ltd.
Aviation purchased property at Point Cook for $7.8 million in 2011 with a view to rezoning the property to increase the value of 756 Aviation Road. To facilitate the purchase and rezoning of the property, Aviation raised around $10.59 million from approximately 73 shareholders and unitholders. On 13 September 2012 the Aviation property was rezoned from Green Wedge Zone to Farming and appears to have significantly increased in value.
On 6 July 2018 Aviation entered into a contract for the sale of the land at Point Cook. This contract was formally terminated on 17 August 2018 and ASIC is not aware of there being any current sale contract.
ASIC has previously, in 2016, issued court proceedings against Aviation to limit the ability of Aviation to deal with the proceeds of the sale of the Aviation property, pending further disclosures being made to investors about a share issue in 2016 to companies owned by a director and former director, and an opportunity to obtain independent advice concerning their investments.
By agreement with ASIC, Aviation provided corrective disclosure to investors in September 2016 about the 2016 share issue to companies owned by a director and former director. The freezing order was vacated when it became apparent that the sale would not then proceed.
