Melbourne suburban apartment tower

ANZ’s former data centre building in Toorak Road is to be demolished and replaced with a $100 million luxury apartment tower.

Stonnington City Council this week approved the demolition of the 227 Toorak Road office, which ANZ sold for $33 million in 2007 to Little Project Developments, the construction company of Toll Holdings chief, Paul Little.

The redevelopment will see all Toorak Road car access closed off permanently. The apartment tower that will replace the ANZ office, will be set back 45 metres from the road.

Many of the units in the $110 million Claremont South Yarra development will offer unobstructed city and township views over Melbourne High School.

FOR the week of the Spring Racing Carnival, it’s arguably Melbourne’s busiest roundabout.

But when revellers return to the races next year – things could very different at the frantic intersection of Ascot Vale, Epsom and Racecourse roads, near the main Flemington Racecourse entrance.

The owner of the prominent 1 Ascot Vale Road site, Flemington Development Company, is preparing to lodge plans to develop an environmentally sustainable 20-level apartment tower, on what is now the Racecourse Tavern, Epsom Bistro, a bottle shop, motel and car park.
