Urban Renewal and Social Housing Seminar
This seminar will see a panel of expert speakers examine three major contemporary developments in Melbourne, to highlight the issues and opportunities surrounding urban renewal and social housing.
Marius will talk about how the multi-year Carlton Redevelopment, which integrates affordable housing via a major urban renewal project, delivering 1100 private, social and retirement housing units via a development plan framework. The project has been a catalyst for related initiatives in sustainability, community engagement, infrastructure and services.
Matthew will examine the Port Phillip Housing Association’s approach - its key objectives as well as the benefits and challenges associated with partnering with the private sector. There will also be discussion around the built form, such as the issues of type and quality in private versus community housing, and the social aspects of housing - community consultation, place management and potential outcomes.
Dom will talk about The Nicholson in East Coburg, a highly innovative, place-managed, mixed-tenure, mixed-use apartment complex constructed using Unitised Building’s factory-based modular construction methodology. Dom will also discuss how it could serve as a commercially replicable model for the integration of social and affordable rental housing into inner-city private sector developments.
