Read moreTHE suburb that recently topped a survey assessing Melbourne gentrification levels is continuing to evolve.
Northcote, five kilometres from town, has had a major rezoning approved which will see prominent factories that only a generation ago helped define the suburb, bulldozed and replaced with cafes, shops and apartments.
The rezoning will see the precinct’s residential and retail precinct spill over from High Street into Arthurton Road – and in particular a busy thoroughfare full of factories which connects the strip to the Northcote train station.
Northcote and Maribyrnong, in the north-west, have experienced the most rapid gentrification in Melbourne since 2001, according to a study conducted by the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute at Swinburne and Monash universities.

The vacant AMF Northcote Bowl complex at 166 – 174 Victoria Street, on the north-east corner of Separation Street, was listed for sale by Hong Kong based conglomerate Far East Consortium last October.
It paid Macquarie $5 million for the 4716 square metre site in early 2009, and shortly after, convinced VCAT to approve a permit which would see the distinctive centre demolished and replaced with 73 flats and 18 townhouses.
One of the proposal’s criticisms was that the busy intersection, with thin roads, would be even more overrun with cars. Others argue the site’s previous use as a bowling centre would have contributed somewhat to the traffic in the area.
