Under Construction, Tooronga Village & Society

1.07.2009
Currently under construction are the much anticipated Tooronga Village redevelopment in Glen Iris and the Society apartments, located in South Yarra.

Stage 1 of Tooronga Village will feature the Gardiner apartments sitting over a  retail / commercial podium with basement car parking. Builder’s LU Simon are currently working on Stage 1 of the development where  the retail and car park structure is nearing completion, before moving onto the fitout of the shopping centre.

Tooronga Village will form the new heart of the Glen Iris community,
integrating community facilities, public spaces, retail and commercial tenancies and residential apartments.

Coined a ‘vertical village’, Hamton’s pioneering Society apartment development commenced construction in late 2008 and is rapidly taking shape, with the structure built up to level 6 and builder’s Hickory to begin constructing the frame out for external cladding, the project is on schedule for completion in mid 2010.

Located just 30m from Chapel Street, the 12 level Society development features a chic mix of 1 and 2 bed apartments, offering a sophisticated lobby, ground floor reception bar, the ‘Dining  Room’ restaurant, ‘Socialite’ bar, ‘Loaf’ produce store / café and ‘Mum’ launderette.
