Union Quarter Construction Kicks Off
Construction has kicked off at one of Australia's largest privately developed build-to-rent projects, the $275 million Union Quarter development in Spotswood.
The project is being developed by Suleman Group on a 2ha site at 31-69 McLister Street. It will comprise 335 apartments, including 34 NDIS dwellings, as well as a neighbourhood activity centre across the lower levels with 7,622sqm of retail and 1,136sqm of health and fitness space anchored by a Woolworths supermarket, and with a Dan Murphy's, specialty retailers, food and beverage, and a town square.
Rick Berry, James Lockwood and Bianca Pannunzio of Fitzroys are marketing the retail and medical component of Union Quarter. Fitzroys is currently running an Expressions of Interest campaign for the pharmacy premises, and will soon move onto the next stage of the retail leasing program. This will include targeted marketing of the medical centre and 2-level café and restaurant offer that will anchor the food and beverage component of the project.
“Melburnians are embracing their local communities even more in the current environment. Union Quarter Activity Centre will offer a comprehensive shopping and lifestyle hub for residents, and a focal point for the next phase of growth in Melbourne's inner-west,” Berry said.
“Union Quarter Activity Centre meets changing demand from this local community in Melbourne’s inner-west for a purpose built high-quality shopping and lifestyle offering, and hundreds of new retail job opportunities.”
