3L Alliance has appointed Multiplex to deliver the first residential tower in its $1 billion landmark Queens Place mixed-use development in Melbourne’s CBD.
Designed in a collaboration by Cox Architecture and Fender Katsalidis Architects, Stage one is valued at $355 million and will see the construction of a six-level basement, six-level podium and the first 80 level residential tower, providing a total of 815 apartments.
Located at 350 Queen St, Queens Plaza will comprise some 1,500 apartments within twin towers spanning 80 levels each set above a podium. The development will also feature retail and commercial office suites, a public plaza with a laneway shopping precinct and luxurious lifestyle amenities such as restaurants, private cinemas, a library, poker and mah jong room, a private garden terrace, karaoke suite and a cigar bar.
“We are delighted to be part of this exciting new project, set to deliver a vibrant new vertical community to Melbourne’s CBD along with some innovative and engaging public spaces,” Multiplex regional managing director Graham Cottam said.
Construction will start immediately and completion is expected in the second quarter of 2021.
