Baybrook

<html><body>
Braybrook will be the suburb where the new lowrise social housing apartments are constructed in what Housing Minister Richard Wynne says will be a game-changer for social housing.

The apartments, to be built at 293-295 Ballarat Road, have been designed by Architects LIAN, in ­association with Kerstin Thompson Architects.

The government has committed to construction of more than 12,000 homes by June 2024 as part of its “big housing build.’’

The government has sought a new model for social housing that moves away from high-rise towers to ­accommodate families in low-rise apartments.

At least 12 new developments will be constructed around Braybrook before being rolled out to other parts of the city and state.

The homes will be a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments.

Melbourne's current ­social housing towers, built in the 1960s and 1970s, are now expected to be used for at least 85 years, according to the Herald Sun.
