Geelong’s Yarra Street Pier Close to Redevelopment 21 Years After Fire
Plans for a $30 million pier and waterfront development in central Geelong are expected to be announced next month.
Major Projects development facilitator Kathy Timmins told The Age it was happy with the response to a recent Expression of Interest campaign to revive the Yarra Street Pier, which was burned in 1988.
Ms Timmins also said the EOI gauged market appetite for new commercial developments on or adjacent to the proposed new pier.
The proposal, which is yet to receive public funding, is also expected to include the redevelopment of the Fisherman’s Basin.
