Melbourne suburban development site

DRIVER Bus Lines, owned by the Driver family, will sell its prominent 1703 square metre Glen Iris Road site, which has been the company’s garage base for 70 years.

The site, next door to popular cafe the Glen Iris Milk Bar, and across the road from Ferndale Park, is roughly half way between two train lines: Alamein and Glen Waverley, making it ripe for residential redevelopment.

Any medium density project can exploit westerly parkland views too, over a walk track to Gardiners Creek and the Glen Iris wetlands.

CELEBRITIES Kate Ceberano and Gina Riley have opposed the development of a new Jewish School, on the former Regent Lodge site, in Elsternwick.

An application has been received by the Glen Eira Council to develop the 2,989 square metre site at 46 Regent Street into a three-level school, capable of accommodating 325 students.

Kate Ceberano, and Ms Riley’s husband, Rick McKenna told the Herald Sun traffic caused by the added school would cause chaos around the small suburban street.
