58 High Street, Toowong

Nettleton Tribe have prepared revised architectural plans for the site, known as The Vanda, with approval previously given for 157 apartments.



The Brisbane developers State Development Corporation, in partnership with City Developments Limited,&nbsp;have redesigned the&nbsp;plans for their&nbsp;new apartment tower in Toowong.

The proposal for 58 High Street seeks to respond to the shortage of quality owner occupier apartments within the Toowong residential market, which was demonstrated by the successful sale of all apartments at the nearby Aviary, SDC note.

Nettleton Tribe have prepared revised architectural plans for the site, known as The Vanda, with approval previously given for 157 apartments.

The change comes as the developers focus shifted from wanting to attract residential investors, initially creating a majority of one and two-bedroom dwelling, to instead complimenting the Aviary, responding to the maturing residential apartment market, attracting owner occupiers.

The new plans reduce the number of apartments by 29, with the 20-storey tower now set to be home to 125 residences, consisting of 28 one-bedroom, 61 two-bedroom and 36 three-bedroom apartments.

The landscaping throughout, by AS Design, plays a pivotal part in the development, with three out of four facades covered in deep planting and greenery, as well as creating a garden space on the rooftop terrace.

The proposal provides a distinct lower, middle and upper building form and is well articulated with varied materials, balconies and screening.

The built form of the podium and ground floor plane embraces the subtropical environment of South-East Queensland by providing layered awnings and an articulated landscaped interface to the north and west activating Ebor Street and High Street edges.

The configuration of apartment floors has been orientated to encourage favourable daylight and maximised view lines to living areas.

Sitting above all residential floors, both outdoor and covered communal areas take advantage of natural lighting and sweeping views to the city and the river for all of the residents.

Large doors have also been installed in all public and communal locations, allowing seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Where possible and appropriately shaded, large floor-to-ceiling openings have been created with Juliette balconies.

Plans outline three levels of basement parking, before reaching the lower ground floor, which features a resident&rsquo;s store, with the upper-ground floor including four retail tenancy spaces, occupying the north-western side of the ground floor.

Two podium levels provide further car and bicycle parking, with the residences starting on level four through to 19, before the tower tops out with a rooftop terrace on level 20.
