SOUTH Yarra’s best located eyesore may be demolished and replaced with a chic $100 million apartment tower – designed by the same architect that penned Melbourne’s distinctive Rectangular Stadium.

Little Project Developments has lodged a development application with the Stonnington City Council to build a 24-level, 350-unit apartment complex on the site of an ANZ data centre at 227 – 233 Toorak Road, near the busy Chapel Street intersection.

LPD paid ANZ about $33 million for the office in 2007, and was expected to incorporate the 1970s brick building into a new 32-level residential development, possibly adding a second tower to vacant land at the rear of the site.

THE VICTORIAN Civil and Administrative Tribunal has heard submissions, and is expected to make an announcement within weeks about a controversial apartment and townhouse development behind Victoria’s oldest motel.

The 53-year old Oakleigh Motel – an American Googie styled guest house built on what was then the outskirts of Melbourne, will be retained as part of the proposed redevelopment. But buildings and land around the distinctive 1650 Dandenong Road property will be redeveloped into 54 dwellings, if the developer gets its way.

THE Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal has given the green light to redevelop Vision Australia’s rundown former Prahran office, into a 330-unit apartment village.
