175 Melbourne Street, South Brisbane

Stockwell, led by managing director Mark Stockwell, has a number of projects in development across Brisbane

Veteran Brisbane developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/stockwell">Stockwell</a> is continuing to expand its Fish Lane residential portfolio.

Their latest step in development surrounding the sought-after pocket toward the northern end of South Brisbane is a 30-level tower at <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/175-melbourne-street-south-brisbane">175 Melbourne Street</a>, South Brisbane, a 1,40 sqm site on the corner of Melbourne Street and Edmondstone Street. The site is next door to The Standard by ARIA Property Group, the developer of Fish Lane's buzzing retail and dining strip.

Stockwell, the family-run developer who has been developing in Brisbane since the early 1950s, is producing a heavily-targeted owner-occupier tower, with the majority of the 130 apartments four and five-bed. They're proposing just 27 two-beds and 25 three-beds, some 52 four-bedroom apartments, and 26 five-bedroom apartments.

The apartments will sit above a three-level parking podium and a ground level commercial tenancy, while resident amenity is provided in the form of a rooftop garden with a 17-metre swimming pool and spa, a function room with an outdoor terrace, a gym, yoga lawn and dog park. There will be 240 parking spaces and 164 bicycle spaces.

Stockwell will be delivering the project in two stages, the first being the basement, podium, and tower up to level 20, and the second stages level 21 to 30.

Architecture firm MODE said in their design statement that the&nbsp;design has been developed to provide a high-quality building with extensive landscaping and materiality to further enhance Melbourne Street as a sub-tropical boulevard.

"The front edge of the building is landscaped with large deep planters to soften this edge and contribute to the sub-tropical nature of Melbourne Street," the report read.

They said the design of the streetscape has many opportunities for the display of public art.

"The lobby and tenancy raised to the required flood level, gives the opportunity to introduce a prominent grand entry staircase and ramp integrated with extensive landscaping. Large glazed facades are featured on the entry lobby and tenancy to facilitate street activation and casual surveillance."

Mode said the&nbsp;existing seats, artwork and planting on Melbourne Street will be retained and create a dialogue with the new entry steps.

The podium façade is clad in a brick skin and brick fins in reference to the local context and identity of South Brisbane, a material&nbsp;featured along Melbourne St and Fish Ln on both historic and new buildings including Stockwell's under construction apartment developments Croft on Fish Lane and Cremorne on Fish Lane.

Stockwell, led by managing director Mark Stockwell, has a number of projects in development across Brisbane.

Their most impressive is Stones Corner Village, where they're intending to redevelop their current retail and dining precinct just off Hanlon Park.

They've proposed a new mixed-used precinct at 405 Logan Road, which will incorporate 209 apartments across two towers, dubbed Logan and Cleveland, which will sit above 3,000 sqm of retail.

Stockwell has owned the 5,709 sqm site since 2006, which currently homes 20 retailers and is anchored by an Aldi. Over 500 new car parking spaces will be provided, and 252 bicycle spaces.

Stockwell also has a&nbsp;build to rent project in West End at 399 Montague Road, a few doors down from <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/qld/first-look-mcnab-file-for-montague-street-west-end-apartment-development">McNab''s recently filed plans for the redevelopment of the former Dixon's Tannery</a>.
