Natural environments instead of artificial environments
Lots of green
Really good infrastructure
Connected to the rest of the city
Bikes
Skatepark
Running tracks
A true community
I think it’s important to think sustainably
Open places like parks
Keep the history
Diverse
Vibrant
A multicultural hub
A place where people feel connected
Where people can collaborate and come together
Imagine a place shaped by the voices of the people who live there
an innovative community full of possibilities
Fisherman’s Bend is a 30 year project
project where an industrial legacy is being transformed into a thriving mixed-use community
Over 480 hectares, 5 interconnected precincts
precincts each with their own unique character and history
will become home to 80,000 people
and 80,000 jobs
Each precinct respects and celebrates
the areas rich social and economic heritage
whilst also recognising the significance of the traditional owners
and their cultural heritage
The area will be a City within a Park
with public open spaces and a network of linear parks
retail, employment, education & mixed-use community facilities
are just a short walk from each other
Extensive planting and the use of green roofs and walls
will support biodiversity and help increase people’s connections to nature
with the natural and built environments creating habitats for flora and fauna
For innovation and urban design
Fisherman’s Bend will be a healthy, connected, accessible, liveable community
a place of architectural excellence
and a great place to live and work
Through clever innovation and design
Fishermans Bend will become Australia’s largest urban renewal project
Where sustainability will continuously aspire to global best practice
An efficient, well-connected transport network
will run seamlessly in and out of Melbourne’s CBD every day
encouraging and prioritising public transport, cycling and walking
Fishermans Bend will create a sustainable and inclusive future
for everyone
