THE Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal has approved construction of a seven-level apartment building on the north-east corner of High and Charles streets in Prahran, to replace a former two-level office building, previously owner-occupied by the Royal Victorian Institute for the Blind.

The tower would be the tallest approved for the trendy inner-city suburb, since the aggressive wave of high density living started making its way into the suburbs, about six years ago, under the Melbourne 2030 turned Melbourne @ 5 Million planning strategies.

Last month, Vision Australia listed for sale a development site at 201 High Street, after a 2007 deal to consortium Gersh Investment Partners and Pomeroy Pacific, did not proceed.
