Urban's three favourite things about Elm & Stone:

Elm & Stone - 387 Docklands Drive, Docklands

<html><body>
A range of milestones have been achieved in <a href="/developments/docklands-vic-3008">Docklands</a> in 2018, with over one million square metres of commercial floor space and 10,000 apartments delivered or under construction, signalling how far the precinct has come. <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/development-victoria-appoints-geoff-ward-to-lead-its-precincts-team">Development Victoria’s Group Head Precincts, Mr Geoff Ward</a>, said the level of investment in Docklands by both the private and public sector was a vote of confidence in the precinct.

<blockquote>
“We are seeing a real maturity in Docklands, with around 11,000 residents calling it home and around 58,000 people now working here. The number of blue-chip companies who have their offices in Docklands continues to grow, including Lendlease, ANZ Bank, Myer, NAB, KPMG and Medibank. Construction continues on both commercial and residential towers which sustains between 2,500 and 3,000 jobs for Victorians which is remarkable.”

- Geoff Ward, Development Victoria’s Group Head (Precincts)

A snapshot of Melbourne's construction - September 2018

<html><body>
The Docklands development machine continues to roll on with a significant number of projects having either commenced or are due to commence this year. Today's article will predominantly focus on the northern precincts including District Docklands (formerly Waterfront City/Harbour Town), New Quay, and Digital Harbour.

<h2>Quest / Elm &amp; Stone, NewQuay</h2>

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public//pictures/article-images/p7040436.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Elm &amp; Stone has topped out.

<h2>District Docklands, Master Plan</h2>

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public//pictures/article-images/the_distrcit_master_plan.png" rel="gallery-all" title="The District Docklands Master Plan.

Original Image: AsheMorgan" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>The District Docklands Master Plan. Original Image: AsheMorgan</figcaption></figure>Owner of The District Docklands, AsheMorgan has engaged NH Architecture to undertake Master Planning to facilitate the development of a 190,000sqm mixed-use precinct on the remaining undeveloped land within the former Waterfront City boundary offering employment, shopping and living space. 

This follows on from the first stage overhaul of the former Harbour Town centre which has now been completed and comprised the installation of new canopies, facades, paving and landscaping elements.

The next stage involves the provision of a 8,300sqm HOYTS cinema and entertainment complex, which also include Archie Brothers Electric Circus, 8Eight Street Asian hawker-style restaurant and Urban Alley Brewery along with other food and beverage offerings.

The $45m development is on track to be completed in September of this year.

Looking further ahead, future stages of the overall Master Plan which are being rolled out include a fresh food market within the re-purposed existing multi-storey car park and a Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) commercial building.

These are further outlined below;

<h2>Woodwork Building, The District Docklands</h2>

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public//pictures/article-images/woodwork.png" rel="gallery-all" title="The Woodwork Building.

Image: FKD Studio" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>The Woodwork Building. Image: FKD Studio</figcaption></figure>A planning permit was recently issued for an 8,000sqm office building which will sit above the existing centre along Waterfront Way (soon-to-be Market Lane), valued at $56m.

Designed by NH Architecure, the building, to be known as Woodwork comprises a ground floor retail lobby with four large open plan office floors above, and 80% of the construction will consist of CLT, with the timber to be sourced from sustainable forests.

Woodwork will be the first CLT office building in Melbourne and is expected to be completed in 2020.

<h2>The Market, The District Docklands</h2>

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public//pictures/article-images/the_market_district_docklands.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="The Market @ The District.

<figcaption>The Market @ The District. Image: AsheMorgan</figcaption></figure>On Tuesday 15 May the District Docklands team "cracked the concrete" of the East Car Park to officially mark the beginning of construction on Docklands new food precinct, The Market. 

The internationally-inspired marketplace, will provide Docklands with a fresh food precinct that includes butchers, delis, bakers, coffee roasters and cafes in addition to major retail in the form of a Woolworths supermarket, Dan Murphy’s, a large-scale Asian Grocer and Priceline Pharmacy.

A Medical Centre, as well as health and beauty services, will round out the convenience offer, providing for surrounding residents and visitors with a one stop shop for their day to day needs.

The Market is officially slated to open in  July 2019.

Image: Jackson Clements Burrows" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>218 Harbour Esplanade. Image: Jackson Clements Burrows</figcaption></figure>The latest application to be submitted within the Docklands precinct is for 218 Harbour Esplanade. Designed by Jackson Clements Burrows the development will comprise 183 apartments across 21-storeys with 117 car spaces to be provided.

The apartment mix will include 6 x three bedroom apartments, 118 x two bedroom, and 55 one bedders in addition to SOHO style two-storey dwellings.

According to <a href="http://www.docklandsnews.com.au/editions/article/container-inspired-apartment-block_14314/">Docklands News</a>, the design was "inspired by a vision of containers stacked on a wharf. Wharf-type timbers will also be employed on the lower podium levels to complete the metaphor."

<h2>26-34 Digital Drive, Digital Harbour</h2>

The brick-clad building draws on the texture and character of nearby heritage buildings, and includes an outdoor terrace 40m above ground marking a streetwall datum, while three-storey voids internally allow for more expansive views outwards from the office levels.

<figcaption>Development Victoria has purchased the Seven Digital Broadcast Centre. Image: Australian Financial Review</figcaption></figure>The home of the Seven Network's digital broadcasting studio was recently purchased from owner the NRMA for $100m 

How this strategic acquisition ties into the redevelopment of the soon-to-be renamed Marvel Stadium and Harbour Esplanade remains to be seen, but the price tag suggests it forms a crucial piece of the puzzle.

It could potentially provide the AFL with accommodation allowing its current headquarters to be redeveloped into a 7 star waterfront hotel, inline with concept plans released earlier this year.

According to the <a href="https://www.afr.com/real-estate/victorian-government-homes-in-on-sevens-docklands-hq-20180625-h11tqr">AFR</a>, a Development Victoria spokesperson has stated that the purchase would allow it to "develop long-term strategies to revitalise the Docklands Stadium and waterfront."

Docklands Development Update July 2018

<html><body>
The City of Melbourne earlier this week agreed to provide conditional support for MAB Corporation's NewQuay West Development Plan via its Future Melbourne (Planning) Committee. The revised development plan prepared by DKO Architecture and Aspect Studios was driven by the development of the Ron Barassi Senior Park which necessitated a revisiting of the precinct layout and urban structure.

The area identified as NewQuay West is located to the west of the recently completed Marina Tower and encompasses Ron Barassi Snr Park while being bordered by Docklands Drive and the Docklands FIlm Studios to the north, Bolte Bridge to the west and Victoria Harbour to the south.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/20170721_135715_1.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="The view from Ron Barassi Snr Park towards Marina Tower will change with the development of NewQuay West."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="437" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/20170721_135715_1.jpg?itok=c27W2i_w" title="The view from Ron Barassi Snr Park towards Marina Tower will change with the development of NewQuay West." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>The view from Ron Barassi Snr Park towards Marina Tower will change with the development of NewQuay West.</figcaption></figure>The 2017 Development Plan has been reconfigured to address Ron Barassi Snr Park, with a series of design principles developed which provide clear direction to ensure a considered approach to the interface of built form to the public realm including the waterfront promenade. 

One of the biggest alterations to the Development Plan has been the layout and type of future built form within the precinct.  Initially proposed as a mix of low-rise linear buildings along the waterfront and high-rise to the rear along Docklands Drive, the new plan proposes five mid to high-rise apartment buildings atop podiums positioned either side of a proposed linear park and an extension of Docklands Drive.

The layout and location of public realm including public open space provision and the southern pedestrian promenade have also been amended with the linear park acting as an extension of the existing park delivered as part of The Merchant and Townhouse developments.

<blockquote>
The NewQuay West Development Plan will deliver an urban waterfront precinct that, while being an extension of existing development further to the east, will create a new and diverse character in the remaining parts of the NewQuay precinct.

The urban structure has been underpinned by the creation of public open space networks extending through the length of the precinct. The open space network is largely defined by the waterfront promenade and marinas and the Ron Barassi Senior Park and Linear Park corridor.

Subsequently, the built form typology, siting and design will be in a large part driven by ensuring an appropriate response to these public spaces and in particular the amenity of Ron Barassi Senior Park and Linear Park.

<figcaption>Indicative render of NewQuay West. Image: Development Plan 2017</figcaption></figure>The revised Development Plan establishes a series of parameters for tower and podium heights which are listed below.

<ul>
<li>Lot B 120m</li>
	<li>Lot C 120m</li>
	<li>Lot D 95m</li>
	<li>Lot G 75m</li>
	<li>Lot H 75m</li>
</ul>
Podium Heights:

<ul>
<li>Linear Park 20m (4-6 Levels)</li>
	<li>Ron Barassi Senior Park 25m (6-8 Levels)</li>
	<li>Promenade 23m (5-7 Levels)</li>
	<li>Docklands Drive 25m (6-8 Levels)</li>
</ul>
In addition to the information above, the Development Plan also suggests potential options for tower footprints and forms to encourage and facilitate diversity in built form outcomes rather than a generic approach. Similar to DKO's master plan for NewQuay Central, the NewQuay West Development Plan suggests different architects for each building to further provide a visual distinction between each building.

<figcaption>Suggested tower form options within NewQuay West. Image: Development Plan 2017</figcaption></figure>Pending Ministerial approval MAB Corporation will likely turn its attention to NewQuay West following completion of Elm and Stone, and the Six Degrees-designed Lot 5 at 375-381 Docklands Drive.

This will essentially complete the NewQuay precinct, save for a wedge of land which has not been included within the NewQuay West Development Plan, but is the likely landing area for a future bridge connection to Victoria Harbour.

MAB Corporation's NewQuay West a step closer

<html><body>
Part three follows on from the part one: Yarra's Edge and part two: Victoria Harbour. The focus of today's piece will be NewQuay and Harbour Town, the northern most precincts within Docklands.

<h2>NewQuay</h2>

NewQuay was the first precinct to open way back in 2003 and has probably evolved the most. Initially comprising of two parts (east and west) bisected by the former Waterfront City precinct, NewQuay now stretches the length of the northern edge of Victoria Harbour with the construction of NewQuay Central featuring five buildings designed by three different architects.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/20170721_133637.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Marina Tower, Banksia and Promenade form the link between east and west."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="412" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/20170721_133637.jpg?itok=L-jO3q0x" title="Marina Tower, Banksia and Promenade form the link between east and west." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Marina Tower, Banksia and Promenade form the link between east and west.</figcaption></figure>This is a departure from the early days when Fender Katsalidis and SJB formed a partnership to design the first five residential buildings in the precinct which led to the formation of Plus Architecture who designed the sixth building Harbour One. 

The earlier buildings all shared a similar aesthetic with variants on the same building form and materiality and were named in honour of artists and architects. Each tower sits atop an expansive podium with rooftop resident gardens and retail to ground floor.

The restaurant and bars feature both indoor and outdoor seating fronting the promenade although the plastic weatherproofed coverings are beginning to show their age and I wonder if it might be worth building something a bit more permanent like a pergola structure with a better relationship and stronger connection with the promenade.

Southgate and Riverside Quay provide some good examples of how this can be achieved. I'd also consider going a step further and replacing the palms with trees that provide better wind protection. 

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/20170721_134219.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="A glimpse from the promenade down a side street."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="516" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/20170721_134219.jpg?itok=fYvCwpuW" title="A glimpse from the promenade down a side street." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>A glimpse from the promenade down a side street.</figcaption></figure>McBride Charles Ryan's The Quay's was the first development to break the mould of earlier developments save for maybe The Conder and saw a variation in architecture and built form.

The introduction of pinks and purples provide a contrast to the more robust concrete grey of the earlier developments with a kaleidoscope of colours and materials at ground street level creating one of the more unique streetscapes in the area.

The towers themselves are unique to not only Docklands but also Melbourne with glazing combining with crumpled balcony spandrels  providing visual interest to the facades.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/20170721_133709_0.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="The Quays have added to the diversity of architecture and built form"><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="269" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/20170721_133709_0.jpg?itok=zqbjr5RO" title="The Quays have added to the diversity of architecture and built form" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>The Quays have added to the diversity of architecture and built form</figcaption></figure>The more recent buildings which form part of NewQuay Central have followed the trend away from the archetypal model of the earlier buildings particularly with materiality and roof forms. This can probably be largely attributed to the fact three different architecture firms designed the buildings with DKO's Marina Tower and Woods Bagot's Aqui and Promenade favouring a series of crystalline or shard buildings with sloping roof forms and different tones of glazing. 

MCR's Banksia building is reminiscent of Chicago's Marina Towers with its GFRP facade drawing on the waterside location providing a series of detailed 3d waves wrapping the building and providing a central point of interest, contrasting well with the other NewQuay Central buildings and proving that variety is key.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/20170721_134606.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="NewQuay Central introduces further variety to the built form and architecture with different architects designing the buildings."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="236" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/20170721_134606.jpg?itok=xU0uqSaK" title="NewQuay Central introduces further variety to the built form and architecture with different architects designing the buildings." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>NewQuay Central introduces further variety to the built form and architecture with different architects designing the buildings.</figcaption></figure>Up until recently NewQuay didn't have as much open space aside from the promenade but with Monument Park, Ron Barassi Snr Ovel and the soon to be completed NewQuay Park that has changed. Located to the rear of the soon-to-be completed Banksia development, New Quay Park will provide a sloping north facing green space for NewQuay's growing population and visitors while concealing the underground parking for Banksia. The park replaces a previously paved surface which for a few years hosted a temporary tent structure and was at one stage going to host a Vegemite museum. I think it's fair to say the park is the better outcome.

<figcaption>Construction continues at NewQuay Park while Ron Barassi Snr Oval has added significant open space and community infrastructure</figcaption></figure><h2>Harbour Town</h2>

Ashe Morgan's purchase of the former Harbour Town retail and shopping precinct from ING has resulted in an ongoing transformation crating a quasi-shopping centre of sorts.

<figcaption>Harbour Town's revitalisation continues.</figcaption></figure>The early stages have included an overhaul of shopfront facades and introduction of paving in lieu of exposed concrete aggregate finish with replacement of timber decking resulting in a much more consistent finish. Future works will include a Hoyts Cinema designed by NH Architecture, with future works involving the creation of a fresh food market and fish market with additions to the facades to Docklands Drive.

Docklands Places and Spaces, part three: NewQuay and Harbour Town

<html><body>
The wheels are turning on a variety of projects at MAB Corporation's NewQuay precinct, with their latest release racking up some impressive numbers..

Urban.com.au recently took the opportunity to interview MAB Corporation's General Manager of Residential, David Allt-Graham regarding their twin-towered Elm &amp; Stone project, in addition to the company's plans for the balance of the site. Located at 395 Docklands Drive, Elm &amp; Stone is the work of DKO Architecture. 

With a slant toward young professionals, Elm &amp; Stone offers a selection of loft apartments in the heart of Docklands and has been designed to appeal/cater toward the needs of a younger generation. MAB Corporation will also develop 221 suites within the golden tinged towers for Ascott Limited and the Qatari Investment Authority, which will be operated under the Quest Apartment Hotels banner.

Quest NewQuay is due to commence construction early next year and open during 2019. It will be the largest hotel in the Quest network, offering studio, one and two bedroom apartments, as well as facilities such as conference rooms, a business lounge, gymnasium and an outdoor terrace.

Image courtesy MAB" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Elm &amp; Stone's 'Brooklyn' loft apartment. Image courtesy MAB</figcaption></figure>The conversation transpired as follows:

Urban.com.au: What features aside from the loft format define youthful preferences, and how are they applied to Elm &amp; Stone?

David Allt-Graham: Flexibility is the key to creating apartments that adjust to our evolving lifestyle. Young professionals want flexible spaces to suit a range of furniture sizes and configurations. Flexible interior colour palettes allow residents to use their imagination and create their own distinctive style. 

The interiors are contemporary yet timeless. They feature concrete ceilings, strip and track lighting creating ambience throughout, clever storage solutions and integrated appliances which enhance the minimalist and clean design.  Planter boxes have been included on some balconies creating the ideal environment to grow herbs or add colour with floral arrangements.

Bedrooms have additional Juliet balconies with sliding doors that can be opened to the morning sun and fresh harbour breeze.

The amenities at Elm &amp; Stone foster a sense of community for young residents, including a zen-garden, outdoor pool with barbeque and dining facilities, gymnasium as well as a ground floor lobby and library. Health and wellbeing is a major priority for younger buyers so it was a significant priority for MAB too.

UM: Will hotelier Quest be occupying the southern or northern building, and will private residences and Quest guests use common facilities? What communal facilities are on offer?

DA-G: Quest will be occupying the southern building, the serviced apartments will be completely separate from the private residences, including the entrances and communal facilities.

Elm &amp; Stone’s communal facilities include:

<ul>
<li>A garden on level 4 with a water feature and plenty of plants such as Chinese Elm trees. This has been designed to be a passive space for residents to unwind, read a book or relax.</li>
	<li>On level 6 there is an outdoor pool deck and dining facilities (BBQ, tables etc), which is a more active space for residents where they can enjoy the uninterrupted northern sun. However, if residents wish to swim laps indoors, Elm &amp; Stone will offer reciprocal rights to the development next door which will have an indoor pool (it is yet to be built).</li>
	<li>The ground floor lobby has a gymnasium, open staircase and a library. These visually-connected spaces aim to create a sense of activity and energy as soon as residents walk into the building.</li>
</ul>

Image courtesy MAB Corporation" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Elm &amp; Stone rooftop podium pool. Image courtesy MAB Corporation</figcaption></figure>UM: What percentage of dwellings are dedicated to lofts and are they found over the building's lower levels?

DA-G: Lofts occupy 22 percent of the building, and are located on the bottom six levels of the building, with 17 levels in total.

UM: How has buyer interest/sales progressed to date and what colour scheme/options have proven most popular? 

DA-G: It has become a bit of a trademark of MAB to offer a selection of different schemes instead of the traditional ‘light’ and ‘dark’ options. Buyers appreciate having choice when it comes to style and interior design.

At Elm &amp; Stone, the Upper East Side theme has overwhelmingly been the most popular (80% of buyers). Upper East Side is fresh and breezy with a focus on natural light. It includes clean lines of white metal, timber joinery and gold metallic highlights. This palette is versatile, created to adapt to various current and future design trends.

Buyers have also lent towards the Soho design, which is more sophisticated with darker tones, or Brooklyn, which is a bit more eclectic with stainless steel benchtops. 

Almost 40 percent of stock is sold. To date, we’ve sold 16 of the 31 lofts, all three townhouses and 36 of the 123 apartments.

UM: What does MAB have planned for The Quarter? Will it remain commercial or are MAB exploring other uses?

DA-G: The Quarter is still in planning, however MAB is currently working towards the site being a mixed commercial and retail site. MAB’s vision for NewQuay is to be a truly mixed-use precinct, one that people can live, work, shop and play; The Quarter will be an important addition in helping MAB to achieve this.

UM: Banksia appears to be making good progress - when does MAB anticipate completion?

DA-G: Banksia is tracking well and is on schedule for completion by the end of 2017 along with NewQuay Central Park.

UM: Is there a general timeline for NewQuay West to begin and can any further info on the precinct be divulged? 

DA-G: We have submitted a Development Plan application for NewQuay West and will proceed with a planning application after the Development Plan is approved.

The development of the Western Precinct has commenced with construction of the Ron Barassi Senior Reserve, and will be progressively developed until 2025. More details will be available once the Development Precinct is approved.

Elm & Stone plus what lies ahead for MAB at NewQuay

<html><body>
With a number of significant projects wrapping up construction within Docklands and the end of the financial year imminent, the half way point of 2017 seems like a good time to take a closer look a the state of affairs within Docklands.

Probuild and Hickory have all but wrapped up external construction on their respective builds Marina Tower and Banksia along the NewQuay promenade with just the internal fit-outs to be completed.

Their completion will leave the just begun Elm and Stone as the sole building within NewQuay under construction. It will eventually be followed by a Six Degrees-designed 20-storey building carrying 172 apartments to be located on Lot 5 at 375-381 Docklands Drive.

</blockquote>

With that in mind, let's take a look at what is currently under construction in Docklands.

<h2>311 Spencer Street</h2>

Currently awaiting Ministerial approval for the proposed new headquarters of Victoria Police at 311 Spencer Street, site works have commenced in preparation for full scale construction of the 171 metre high tower once approval is granted.

Work is progressing on the new offices of ANZ along the banks of the Yarra at Victoria Harbour. Designed by DCM, the 21-storey office tower is about to begin its ascent out of the ground with the erection of dual tower cranes and the formation of the core pit.

The first stage of the Collins Wharf sub precinct which extends all the way along the remaining undeveloped tract of Victoria Harbour peninsula, is making steady progress with the core box now ready to begin its rise to an eventual height of 90 metres.

Docklands construction update June 2017 (with 3D)

<html><body>
Before I jet off to Europe next week I thought being a pleasant winter's day, I would do one final construction update focusing on NewQuay + Harbour Town and Victoria Harbour, the two most active precincts within Docklands in terms of construction activity. Part one will focus on the former including projects under construction in addition to upcoming developments within both.

<h2>NewQuay</h2>

Beginning at NewQuay Central, the area which once formed the gateway into the former Waterfront City precinct is awash with activity as three projects yielding five towers and a new park are at various stages of construction. The furthest advanced of these projects are Aqui and Promenade. The dual towers are being delivered by Hickory for MAB and topped out last month with the installation of the silver and gold glazing progressing at a steady pace.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/aquipromenade.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Aqui and Promenade, NewQuay."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="409" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/aquipromenade.jpg?itok=RrsF1fU_" title="Aqui and Promenade, NewQuay." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Aqui and Promenade, NewQuay.</figcaption></figure>MAB's other project in the area - Banksia - has seen Hickory take control of the site and commence site works to deliver the tower and just as importantly, a new park. The best vantage point to get an appreciation of the site and observe the construction is the upper level of the low-rise buildings along the waterfront.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/banksia_0.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Banksia site, with Marina Tower in the background."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="439" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/banksia_0.jpg?itok=wWXXjhhc" title="Banksia site, with Marina Tower in the background." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Banksia site, with Marina Tower in the background.</figcaption></figure>Appearing in the background of the Banksia photos is Hiap Hoe's Marina Tower and Four Points Sheraton hotel being built by Probuild. The tallest of the NewQuay towers, the 43-storey hotel has commenced its skyward ascent with its distinct 'dancing' forms are yet to fully reveal themselves.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/marina_tower_0.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Marina Tower and Four Points Sheraton Docklands."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="344" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/marina_tower_0.jpg?itok=oL963Ska" title="Marina Tower and Four Points Sheraton Docklands." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Marina Tower and Four Points Sheraton Docklands.</figcaption></figure>NewQuay's latest apartment offering hot off the heels of Banksia is Elm &amp; Stone, which is currently selling. The twin tower project designed by DKO Architecture is located along Docklands Drive and has seen a slight redesign to it's primary facades.

The glazed bronze facades remain, providing a contrast to the white framed buildings. Planter boxes are also provided for residents on balconies to create a cascade of green down the facade.

Elm &amp; Stone features a mix of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom split-level lofts and apartments as well as rooftop communal garden atop the podium in addition to other resident facilities.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/elmstone.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Elm &amp; Stone currently selling.

<figcaption>Elm &amp; Stone currently selling.

This presents the first visible sign of maintenance on the original NewQuay towers with some now 14 years old!

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/thearkley.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="The Arkley recieves a highlight of blue paint."><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="554" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/thearkley.jpg?itok=z6D1KSJS" title="The Arkley recieves a highlight of blue paint." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>The Arkley receives a highlight of blue paint.</figcaption></figure><h2>Harbour Town</h2>

Harbour Town Melbourne is currently in the midst of a substantial overhaul by owners Ashe Morgan. These works have included the installation of new ETFE canopies designed by The Buchan Group in addition to hardscape works and removal of redundant escalators and bridges.

Awnings have also been removed and the shells of the shopfronts peeled back and painted white. But it won't end there.

Harbour Town will also see the construction of a new 8-cinema Hoyts on the site of what was previously the temporary home of the Winter Wonderland as illustrated in the rendering below:

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/harbour_town_hoyts.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Harbour Town Melbourne's new 8-cinema Hoyts complex.

Image courtesy of Hoyts." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Harbour Town Melbourne's new 8-cinema Hoyts complex. Image courtesy of Hoyts.</figcaption></figure>The Hoyts complex will effectively provide a bookend to the Harbour Town area and link back to the existing centre.

Further works to be undertaken also include the provision of a supermarket and extension to Harbour Town's gateway building along Docklands Drive.This extension will extend over the street and provide a somewhat more sophisticated front door to the centre.

At this stage no further works are proposed to the facade of the residential apartments above, however the second of the canopies will also extend through to Docklands Drive complimenting the new entry experience from Docklands Drive.

<figcaption>Harbour Town Melbourne gateway extension. Image courtesy Harbour Town.</figcaption></figure>Other projects in the area include Capital Alliance's 26-38 Pearl River Road and 3-43 Waterfront Way. Both sites abut Harbour Town and were acquired by Capital Alliance in December 2014. Both are currently at planning with the latter on its way to VCAT.

Docklands update June 2016: Newquay and Harbour Town

<html><body>
<blockquote>
I don't think Melburnians understand Docklands yet. We see it as a suburb that needs time to evolve; it needs to find its own spirit, its own character.
<cite>Jesse Linardi, Design Director, DKO</cite>
</blockquote>

As construction in and around Docklands continues at pace, Urban.com.au thought it an opportune time to garner an update on the precinct from Docklands locals <a href="http://www.dko.com.au/">DKO Architecture</a>. Architect Dennis Chew and Design Director Jesse Linardi were kind enough to discuss their experience of working 'on site' in addition to their two latest projects for <a href="http://capitalalliance.com.au/">Capital Alliance</a> within Harbour Town.

The catalyst for the practice's relocation from Mitchell House on Lonsdale Street to Docklands was DKO's engagement in the masterplanning for NewQuay Central following <a href="http://www.mab.com.au/">MAB Corporation</a>'s acquisition of the site from ING. DKO seized the opportunity to be at the coalface so to speak, gaining intimate experience of the precinct.

Having developed the built form envelopes and urban design principles around the ground plane and laneways for NewQuay Central, DKO was subsequently engaged to design what is now Hiap Hoe's Marina Tower development.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/80_08-10-2014_8976.jpg" rel="gallery-all"><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="788" src="/sites/urban.melbourne/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/80_08-10-2014_8976.jpg?itok=fa1oOnRH" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Probuild are currently constructing Marina Tower. Image courtesy DKO</figcaption></figure><blockquote>
The story with NewQuay Central is around having diversity in the architectural built form, so getting a variety of architects involved in each project, away from the repetitive type of approach you might otherwise get from a single office. We talk about it as being part of the city so we tried to encourage an interesting skyline rather than a uniform one.

We really pushed for that which might seem illogical from a commercial decision making point of view, but we felt really strongly about having that diversity.
<cite>Jesse Linardi</cite>
</blockquote>

DKO's work on NewQuay Central expanded to include a development site at <a href="/buildings/elm-stone-387-docklands-drive-docklands">387-395 Docklands Drive</a> which would deliver dual 17-storey buildings over two stages, replacing an earlier scheme by Hassell for a commercial building. The as yet unnamed project is due to begin its sales and marketing campaign shortly.

More masterplanning followed for MAB's NewQuay West which has gone through a number of iterations over the years, the latest incarnation being driven by the addition of Ron Barassi Snr Park. Similar to the initial stage of NewQuay Central, the process for the western precinct wasn't so much about architecture but more so diversity in scale and the impact of built form on built form, as well as the ground plane and pedestrian environment.

Within that framework are considerations of views, shadowing, solar access, wind; a set of principles which DKO's design team works from to derive a built form which they believe to be the best outcome possible.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/newquay_masterplan-reduced.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="NewQuay Masterplan.

Image courtesy of DKO." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>NewQuay Masterplan. Image courtesy of DKO.</figcaption></figure>This in turn brings us to DKO's latest Docklands projects, 3-43 Waterfront Way and 26-38 Pearl River Road within Harbour Town. Offloaded by <a href="http://ashemorgan.com.au/">Ashe Morgan</a> to emerging Melbourne developer Capital Alliance Investment Group, the at planning 3-43 Waterfront Way features a mixed-use tower of 37-storeys with the first 11 levels dedicated hotel accommodation with residential above.

<blockquote>
The opportunity here was designing a mixed-use tower as opposed to a completely residential building, that's something we believe the precinct needs more of: true mixed-use developments. To punch through the existing building and create a direct connection back through to Docklands Drive and the pedestrian retail strip within Harbour Town was highly satisfying.

The other interesting thing about these sites, I believe there's an opportunity and scope for more height and scale than the CBD. The closest building to these sites could be 20-30m away, you don't get the same concerns and issues as those you might in the city, with regards to adjacencies, overlooking and so forth.

Historically this area of Docklands has had relatively low height limits. The driver for height on this site (3-43 Waterfront Way) is the new park and not overshadowing it, which is a logical way to look at it.
<cite>Jesse Linardi</cite>
</blockquote>

The designs for both sites had to address key environmental impacts, in particular wind in places where there doesn't presently exist any built form. The buildings were designed to respond and mitigate the wind conditions; predominantly the westerly and northerly winds the site experiences.

At one stage the Pearl River Road site was going to be one building but was pulled apart to address the wind and allow it to pass through between the buildings rather than be driven downwards to the footpath.

<blockquote>
It was about coming back to those earlier design principles once again. We tested the sites and envelopes quite rigorously with the wind engineer initially. What normally happens is you test it in the wind tunnel, the wind hits the building and creates a downward draught; you typically then provide a awning to deal with the issue.

For these sites the wind is literally carving and sculpting the buildings to provide a more comfortable and better walking condition at ground level.
<cite>Dennis Chew, Architect, DKO</cite>

Image courtesy of DKO." width="580"></a>

<figcaption>The 37-storey mixed use tower at 3-43 Waterfront Way. Image courtesy of DKO.</figcaption></figure>Other design drivers include internal amenity such as minimising the number of apartments with only southerly aspects; the vast majority are afforded east or west outlooks. With the debate surrounding the introduction of apartment standards in Victoria, Jesse says a lot of those design principles and requirements are standard practice and come second nature to the office as part of their design process and that was most certainly be the case for the Harbour Town towers.

Where Pearl River Road and Waterfront Way were initially treated as service roads for the existing retail and ice rink offerings within Harbour Town, the new buildings look to activate them and encourage pedestrian movement through whilst also transforming the look and feel of the area.

The fact that their client, Capital Alliance Investment Group was passionate about good design, amenity and quality outcomes made DKO's task far more appealing. This manifested itself via the client's desire to provide residents and guests with a unique experience by way of a infinity rooftop pool in a similar vein to Marina Bay Sands Singapore, with views back towards the CBD.
