THE BALMAIN Leagues Club, in Sydney, will close for up to five years so developers can build a $200 million club, apartments, a public plaza and new station.
Former rugby player Benny Elias is involved in the development, which will start in late March after the club closes.
A metro station will be developed under Victoria Road, near the club – and the clubs existing site will be used as a construction zone.
“We are required to vacate the site by April 1 in order for the metro to prepare to commence its works on the new Rozelle Metro Station,” Tigers chief executive officer Tim Camiller told the AFR.
