JGL Properties Kangaroo Point project Thornton; Tatts Group Albion site plans Lodged
Introducing Thornton by JGL Properties.
Offering thirteen full floor residences and incredible views of the Brisbane river and CBD, the building will be an iconic addition in Kangaroo Point. Each four bedroom residence will also offer three parking spaces and a first for Brisbane - charging provisions for every vehicle.
Thornton has also collaborated with some of Brisbane and Australia’s most admired and celebrated visionaries, Architect Liam Proberts; Australia’s distinguished art dealer and patron Philip Bacon AM; Artist Ralph Wilson, and renowned chef and restaurateur Thierry Galichet to bring their expertise and personal touch to the project.
Alceon and development partner Core Property Partners have lodged plans with council for massive overhaul of the Tatts Group site in Albion which includes a new 15-storey residential tower, 6-storey commercial tower and refurbishment of the existing brutalist 10-storey commercial building.
Designed by Cox Architecture and Arkhefield, the proposal also includes a public plaza connecting the three buildings and almost 5,000 square metres of retail space which includes tenancies for a childcare centre and 1,500sqm supermarket.
As part of the application, the existing brutalist tower which has often been heralded as one of the city’s ugliest buildings, will receive a drastic renewal of the facade whilst the iconic side-cores are refurbished and maintained.
The residential tower features 77 dwellings across its 10 habitable floors, with a double height showroom fronting the corner of Sandgate Road and Gore Street, as well as a double-storey bistro tenancy. The building is capped off by a rooftop garden, pool and barbecue terrace offering city and river views.
