The edge of Double Bay village is set for a new apartment building designed by one of Sydney's most sought-after architects.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/luigi-rosselli-architect">Luigi Rosselli </a>is behind the designs of the latest plans on the desk of the Woollahra Council for a new block of 20 apartments across two adjoining sites at 351 and 353 New South Head Road, on the slope down towards the village from the south.

Levels one and two of the new eight-storey building will be dedicated affordable housing.

<img alt="Rosselli" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="805cc105-6ad9-4536-92f0-3e43e2a25965" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-11-18%20at%203.17.03%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=DFNnNxe1BFFHq919FK.Q5tSXZPkWkAwO" />

The unit mix incorporates one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. Each apartment will be provided with private open space through balconies or terraces. A communal rooftop terrace is also planned.

Architecturally, the design is informed by a desire to bridge the transition between the commercial character of New South Head Road and the lower-scale residential areas behind. The proposal steps back from the street with landscaped setbacks and features a refined material palette.&nbsp;

“The architectural character of the building is contemporary in style and articulated to provide visual interest and respond to the surrounding context,” the Design Statement notes.

The project includes basement parking with 23 car spaces, including two accessible bays and dedicated spaces for affordable housing units.

The site sits near significant heritage items, including the State Heritage-listed Overthorpe building next door. Dating back to the early 1900s, Overthorpe was initially&nbsp;part of pastoralist and politician&nbsp;Sir John Hay's garden before being converted into apartments.

Double Bay Village is undergoing a transformation with several new developments, both commercial and residential, under construction and in the pipeline. The most notable is the <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/nsw/1-billion-intercontinental-hotel-double-bay-approved-for-mixed-use-redevelopment">$1 billion redevelopment of the InterContinental Hotel</a> into a&nbsp;new&nbsp;mixed-use lifestyle destination on Cross Street.

First look: Luigi Roselli designs latest plans for Double Bay Village 

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mosaic-property-group">Mosaic Property Group</a> has brought forward construction on Madeline by Mosaic, its $270 million, 37-level ultra-luxury tower in Broadbeach, after securing more than $175 million in pre-sales in just three months, the strongest off the plan result recorded on the Gold Coast this year.

Designed in collaboration with Fraser &amp; Partners and built by Mosaic’s in-house construction arm, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/madeline-by-mosaic-22-mary-avenue-broadbeach-qld-4218">Madeline</a> will comprise 59 whole- and half-floor residences, several spanning more than 400 sqm, on a site that secures one of Broadbeach’s last remaining protected ocean-view corridors. &nbsp;An extensive suite of health and wellness amenities, conceived to rival a five-star hotel, will further enhance the resident experience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3409]

Mosaic has rapidly expanded its Gold Coast presence, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/madeline-by-mosaic-22-mary-avenue-broadbeach-qld-4218">Madeline</a> marking its 13th luxury project in just six years, an unprecedented run of delivery in one of the nation’s most competitive markets.

Marella by Mosaic in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> was completed earlier this year, with Lily by Mosaic, also in Broadbeach, on track for completion in late 2025. Sophia by Mosaic in Palm Beach and Isabel by Mosaic in Burleigh Heads are both advancing their building programs, taking Mosaic’s active Gold Coast construction portfolio to more than $800 million in combined project value. All projects are either sold out or nearing sell-out.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3405]

Beyond the Coast, Mosaic is advancing a South East Queensland pipeline worth more than $2 billion, while already having delivered projects valued at over $2 billion.

Founder and Managing Director Brook Monahan said the success of Madeline is a testament to Mosaic’s ability to consistently meet the market through discipline, evolution, a commitment to quality and a customer-first mindset.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3406]

“Our entire model is built on delivering extremely high quality, assurance and certainty," Monahan says.

"We listen, we adapt, and we learn, and that is why our homes resonate so deeply, why our customers return and refer, and why our projects continue to sell out well ahead of completion. Something we continue to work hard towards maintaining and will never take for granted.

“Madeline brings together rare fundamentals, a prime, protected ocean-view site, generously scaled exquisite residences, no more than two per floor, and genuine design integrity. with the confidence that Mosaic will deliver exactly what we promise.”

Monahan acknowledged that while demand is strong, the construction environment remains highly challenging.

“There is no denying that costs, labour, and capacity are still under real pressure. But our integrated model gives us visibility and control across every stage of delivery, and that is how we continue to navigate those headwinds without compromise to quality or certainty for our customers.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3404]

He stated that in this environment, trust is a crucial factor for buyers.

“With so many projects delayed or withdrawn, buyer confidence has been shaken, and they are making a flight to certainty by rewarding developers with a track record of delivery. Madeline’s success is proof that when people trust the developer, they’re prepared to commit early and with conviction. We’ve never gone back to purchasers asking for more money, and that consistency, built on trust, integrity, and authenticity, is what sets Mosaic apart.”

Monahan, who was recently appointed Chairperson of Queensland’s Residential Tenancies Authority, said Mosaic’s growth has never been about chasing volume but about discipline and clarity of purpose.

“We don’t chase every site or every opportunity, we focus only on those that allow us to deliver enduring value. That discipline is why we’ve been able to grow without compromising quality. We don’t overpromise, we don’t cut corners, and we don’t walk away after completion. That consistency gives our buyers confidence, and it’s why they continue to back us.”

Madeline by Mosaic is expected to be completed in early 2028, with remaining residences priced from $3.5m.

PQD, a joint venture between Pomeroy Pacific and Quattro Corp, has unveiled <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kooyongkoot-hawthorn-148-152-riversdale-road-hawthorn-vic-3122">Kooyongkoot</a>, an exclusive collection of just 18 luxury residences, offering resort-style living on a scale rarely seen in boutique developments.&nbsp;

Located on Kooyongkoot Road within <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/hawthorn-vic-3122">Hawthorn</a>’s prestigious Scotch Hill precinct, Kooyongkoot brings together a mix of wellness and lifestyle amenities.&nbsp;Residents will have access to a private wellness centre, including infrared and traditional saunas, a massage and therapy room, cold therapy shower, a yoga and pilates studio, and a fully equipped gym.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355295]

Beyond wellness, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kooyongkoot-hawthorn-148-152-riversdale-road-hawthorn-vic-3122">Kooyongkoot</a> features a curated suite of lifestyle amenities, from an immersive golf simulator with its own guest viewing lounge to a residents’ retreat designed for entertaining. Additional conveniences include a professional-grade car wash, dog wash station, 24/7 parcel lockers, and expansive private storage rooms for every resident.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355296]

"Kooyongkoot represents a shift in how boutique developments are imagined," said Mark Pomeroy, CEO of Pomeroy Pacific.

"We listened closely to what downsizers actually want – not just beautiful interiors, but lifestyle-enhancing amenities without the compromises of high-density living. This is not a project that was simply drawn and delivered. It is the product of dedication, discipline and a desire to create something truly enduring in Hawthorn’s most coveted precinct.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355298]

Designed by award-winning studio <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a>, the building blends sculptural architecture with refined materiality. Residences feature oak timber floors, natural stone finishes, V-Zug appliances, and extensive custom detailing throughout. Penthouses elevate the experience further, with private lift lobbies, three-meter ceilings, and rooftop terraces with private pools and panoramic views.&nbsp;

Light and airflow were central to the building's design. A four-storey central garden lightcourt draws natural light and fresh air into every corridor, creating openness and calm throughout. The 18 residences span four floors, with two dedicated lift cores providing discreet access and reinforcing a sense of privacy and exclusivity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355289]

"Designing Kooyongkoot was about achieving intimacy without sacrificing luxury," said Chris Stribley, founding partner at Cera Stribley. "We’ve created spaces that feel expansive, serene, and meaningfully connected to daily life. Wellness, convenience and calm were essential design principles from the beginning.”&nbsp;

Positioned within walking distance of parklands, private schools, Auburn Village and Camberwell Junction, Kooyongkoot offers a rare opportunity to reside in one of Hawthorn’s most tightly held residential enclaves, with the ease and amenity of true resort-style living.&nbsp;

The project is currently under construction, with registrations of interest now being accepted.

PQD unveils Kooyongkoot, resort-style living in the heart of Hawthorn

Builder–developer Deicorp has unveiled yet another new apartment development in Greater Sydney.

This time, they’re breaking into the booming Lower North Shore market for the first time with the launch of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/falcon-alexander-crows-nest-8-alexander-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Falcon &amp; Alexander</a>&nbsp;in Crows Nest.

Named after its location on the corner of Falcon and Alexander Streets, and within walking distance of the Crows Nest Metro, the development has been designed by Turner and will comprise around 212 apartments above a ground-floor retail precinct and a hotel, the latter increasingly forming part of Deicorp’s strategic development mix.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135323 project_image_fid=351943]

The one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments positioned around a central atrium and landscaped internal gardens. Higher-level residences will take in views toward Sydney Harbour, while interiors are framed by floor-to-ceiling glazing and finished with a mix of stone, timber and custom joinery.

In addition to the 140 private residences, 48 apartments will be delivered as part of an affordable housing component. A 100-room hotel will occupy the southern corner of the site, with residents accessing a private rooftop garden, dining room, and wellness spaces. Ground-floor activation will include space for cafés and small-scale retail.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135323 project_image_fid=351927]

Deicorp founder Fouad Deiri said the project marks a new step for the group’s portfolio.

“This is a community we deeply respect, and we’re proud to contribute with a project that reflects the character, energy, and potential of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/crows-nest-nsw-2065">Crows Nest</a>,” Deiri said.

“This is an iconic location, and a great location deserves a great design. With Falcon &amp; Alexander, we’re delivering more than just apartments; it will be a new landmark for Crows Next that not only delivers housing but will benefit the community with an activated retail offering."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135323 project_image_fid=351931]

Deicorp went through several design iterations for Falcon &amp; Alexander, clearing hurdles with both the local council and State Government to get the project to where it is now.

The builder–developer has already commenced construction on the building, one of several Deicorp is delivering across Sydney. The company currently has more than 2,000 apartments under construction, with plans for thousands more in the pipeline.

Deicorp launches Falcon & Alexander, Crows Nest apartments

Gold Coast developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sherpa-property-group">Sherpa Group</a> has made a strong market debut in Brisbane by selling nearly three-quarter of its recently launched South Brisbane apartment development, Symphony.

Sherpa fielded over 3,000 expressions of interest for the development which forms part of Sherpa's burgeoning Flourish brand, aimed at offering a more affordable entry point for first home buyers than what else is on the market.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/symphony-south-brisbane-21-23-cordelia-street-south-brisbane-qld-4101">Symphony</a>, proposed for a prime 1,366sqm site at 21–23 Cordelia Street in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/south-brisbane-qld-4101">South Brisbane</a>,&nbsp;will deliver 138 apartments across 25 levels, with 25 of the apartments priced under $1 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7574 project_image_fid=5155]

“The affordability that Symphony presents to residential property buyers has created a remarkable level of enquiry for what we believe is a standout project for the South Brisbane market,” said Sherpa Group founder Christie Leet.

“The Flourish brand has been highly successful for us on the Gold Coast, and it’s evident that Brisbane buyers are equally drawn by the quality and amenity that Symphony offers in one of the most vibrant inner-city locations.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7574 project_image_fid=353550]

Sherpa Group has been among the most prolific developers on the Gold Coast in recent years, undertaking 15 projects since 2018.

The company has currently seven projects in Palm Beach, with four of them under the Flourish brand that is delivering affordable beachside luxury for one of the most undersupplied markets on the Gold Coast.

Symphony, which is positioned at the junction of South Bank, West End, and Fish Lane, is located in the heart of Brisbane’s entertainment, dining and leisure precinct. The location also offers exceptional walkability to QPAC, galleries, riverside parklands, the CBD, major universities, hospitals, and transport hubs.

“As our first development for the Brisbane market, we saw this precinct as a strategic location for Sherpa to deliver attainable housing in one of Brisbane’s most connected and culturally vibrant neighbourhoods,” added Leet.

“Our vision for each project is always founded on a sense of community, which is why we have ensured that locals who already know and love this area were prioritised during the early release of Symphony residences.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7574 project_image_fid=351653]

Symphony has attracted strong interest from a range of buyers, including first home buyers, downsizers, local owner-occupiers, and investors.

Building on a solid reputation where 100 per cent of projects have been successfully delivered on the Gold Coast, Sherpa Group enlisted architectural firm HAL to design Symphony - envisaging an "architectural gem with activated street frontage and an array of amenities to rival five-star resorts."

Symphony features an expansive rooftop wellness and recreation area spanning more than 1,400 sqm across two levels, with all amenities designed to foster community, connection and wellbeing among residents.

The rooftop will comprise a heated pool, steam room, saunas, and hot and cold plunge pools; work from home spaces, private treatment room, pool deck cabanas and private outdoor BBQ areas; a private dining room and residents’ lounge; a fully equipped gym and yoga studio; and panoramic views of the Brisbane skyline and Mt Coot-tha.

Symphony buyers are given access to a full-time concierge service to provide off the plan assistance and construction updates; hard-hat tours during construction; and post-settlement move-in and appliance induction support.

Theatre

<html><body>
The NSW Government has launched an expression of interest process to garner interest from theatre operators in reopening Sydney’s Theatre Royal. 
Situated in the heart of the Sydney CBD, the 1,100-seat theatre designed by Harry Seidler has been closed since 2016.
Its reopening will allow NSW to deliver and host more major touring theatre productions.
Local and international theatre operators or owners are being sought to enter a long-term sub-lease to operate the theatre.
Applicants will be asked to identify any auditorium refurbishment requirements to operate the theatre from 2021.
Minister for Arts Don Harwin hopes reopening the historic Theatre Royal will help make Sydney number one again for musical theatre in Australia.
“With our existing lyric theatres booked out for years, reopening the Theatre Royal will reintroduce a vital part of the city’s cultural history, open up new employment opportunities and provide a boost for the NSW night-time economy,” Mr Harwin said.
“The theatre has an incredible history dating back to the 1820s and its reopening is backed by huge public demand. We are committed to finding the right operator with the right experience to continue its legacy and allow NSW to compete on the global musical theatre stage once more.”
NSW has secured 28 musical and theatre productions for Sydney since 2011. 
The EOI will close at <a href="https://tenders.nsw.gov.au" target="_blank">Wednesday 24 April 2019</a> via the eTendering website.
Sydney's Theatre Royal is part of Sydney's MLC Centre.

Theatre operator sought to re-open Sydney's Theatre Royal

<html><body>
The film director behind Mad Max and Babe, George Miller, has secured $19.8 million for the historic art deco The Metro theatre in Sydney's Potts Point which was listed with $20 million plus hopes.
ASX-listed Abacus Property Group has emerged as the buyer of one of Sydney's oldest cinemas, the historic Metro Theatre in Potts Point, but have not revealed their intentions.
Local residents had hoped it would be bought by the Sydney City Council, but Clover Moore ruled out the acquisition amid her battle with rival councillors who'd advocated the move.
It has been Miller's headquarters for more than three decades, but now redundant given his relocation to Fox Studios.
It was built in 1939 as <a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/https://dictionaryofsydney.org/media/5557" target="_blank">The Minerva Theatre</a> opening with a production of Idiot's Delight. Sam Hood took photos.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer purchased the building in 1950 and converted to a movie theatre, renaming it the Metro Cinema with stars such as Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton attending premieres.
Then as a theatre it hosted performances including the 1970s musical Hair by Harry M. Miller.
<img src="https://www.afr.com/content/dam/images/g/y/x/8/m/p/image.imgtype.afrArticleInline.620x0.png/1507526409727.jpg" alt="The Metro, Potts Point, Sydney." width="620" data-src="https://www.afr.com/content/dam/images/g/y/x/8/m/p/image.imgtype.afrArticleInline.620x0.png/1507526409727.jpg">
The 2300-square-metre property at 30 Orwell Street was on the market for the first time in 35 years, but had been available for lease.
Miller had struggled with maximising its usage and potential in recent years, with various concepts floated but not implemented.
He was seeking $25 million plus at one stage for its sale.
<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/2017/10/10/Minerva2.jpg" alt="">
In 2018, Liberal councillor Christine Forster put a motion to the council to buy the property as a town hall, similar to those in Glebe and Balmain, and could be used for film festivals, as a theatre, arts venue, function centre, bike hub, local museum and for exhibitions and meetings.
“The Metro represents a huge opportunity for the local community as it has so much heritage value and is so important to the area,” she said.
“There’s a precedent too for something like this, when we spent $15 million on buying the Tabernacle in Darlinghurst and converted it into the Eternity Playhouse.
“It would be terrific to put it into public hands for community use.”
Team Clover, comprising of councillors Jess, Scully, Philip Thalis, Robert Kok and Jess Miller voted against an outright purchase of the Metro.
Previously a spokesperson for the Lord Mayor had advised “after corresponding with the local community late last year, Lord Mayor Clover Moore forwarded the suggestion that the City of Sydney should purchase the Metro Theatre in Potts Point to City staff for consideration”.
Councillor Jess Scully, from Team Clover, sent an email to a local resident passing the buck for any purchase to the State Government.
City Hub reported she said “the Metro Theatre should also be considered within the broader context of the NSW Government cultural infrastructure strategy”.
The local resident Warren Fahey noted at the time that "we do feel the City has turned its back on us" with Potts Point a "disenfranchised part of the City of Sydney".

George Miller sells art deco Metro theatre in Potts Point to Abacus

<html><body>
A 50 year old suburban Melbourne drive-in theatre - one of the last - has been sold for around $12.5 million, exceeding its price expectations of $11 million-plus.
Coburg Drive-In located at <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/property-industrial+warehouse-vic-coburg+north-502955310" target="_blank">155 Newlands Road, Coburg North</a> is a 8.16ha site.
The owner of the drive-in — Village Roadshow Theatres Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of the ASX-listed Village Roadshow Limited — will lease it back for an initial 10-year term on a triple-net basis.
It has been bought by Charter Hall.
The site was marketed as "the last essentially undeveloped parcel of significant scale in Melbourne’s inner north.”
Located on Newlands Road, Coburg North, the drive-in has been operating since 1965 and has three screens — one each on the south-western, north-western and north-eastern points of the site.
At 33m wide each and overlooking an asphalt viewing area of 36,000sqm, the screens are up for debate as the biggest in the southern hemisphere.
<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/2018/9/14/Coburg%202.jpg" alt="">
A single-level retro-style diner and children’s playground are located centrally and the drive-in's ticket booth — topped by an old yellow Holden — is a local landmark.
Victorian Heritage describes it as “one of three (drive-ins) that remain in operation in Victoria out of approximately 60 at the height of drive-in popularity”.

Coburg Drive-In located at <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/property-industrial+warehouse-vic-coburg+north-502955310" target="_blank">155 Newlands Road, Coburg North</a> is being offered via public tender by JLL’s Tony Iuliano, Adrian Rowse and Brad Esler.
It is set on a 8.16ha site.
“The owner of the drive-in — Village Roadshow Theatres Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of the ASX-listed Village Roadshow Limited — will lease it back for an initial 10-year term on a triple-net basis,” Mr Iuliano said.
He said the site represents "the last essentially undeveloped parcel of significant scale in Melbourne’s inner north.”
Located on Newlands Road, Coburg North, the drive-in has been operating since 1965 and has three screens — one each on the south-western, north-western and north-eastern points of the site.

A single-level retro-style diner and children’s playground are located centrally and the drive-in's ticket booth — topped by an old yellow Holden — is a local landmark.
Mr Iuliano said there had already been overwhelming interest in the site since the marketing campaign was launched on September 13. Most inquiries were coming from prospective buyers nationally.
"Given the high underlying land value component, the sale price could go a lot higher,” he said.
Mr Rowse said “There are plenty of future options for the Industrial 1-zoned site and it’s also likely to suit an e-commerce user, subject to council approval."
The property benefits has access to major road infrastructure, including the Western and Metropolitan ring roads, as well as Melbourne’s CBD, Port of Melbourne and Essendon and Melbourne airports.
The public tender period for <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/property-industrial+warehouse-vic-coburg+north-502955310" target="_blank">155 Newlands Road, Coburg North</a>, closes at 4pm on Wednesday, October 17, 2018.

George Miller lists Art Deco Metro theatre in Potts Point

<html><body>
Hobart's Theatre Royal Hotel, one of the oldest pubs in Australia, has been bought by the University of Tasmania for $1.7 million.
The university snapped up the two-storey hotel, built in 1834 by Peter Degraves, founder of Cascade Brewery last week at Knight Frank auction.
The pub is next to the Theatre Royal and on the other side, the university has a $90 million arts hub.
In central Hobart is a 400-bed student accommodation facility on Melville Street, part of the development strategy by vice-chancellor Professor Peter Rathjen to immerse the university into the daily life of the city.
