Tooronga Village Masterplan, Glen Iris

9.11.2007
Tooronga Village is a 10.6 hectare site located 8 km from Melbourne on the corner of Toorak Road and Tooronga Road, Glen Iris.

The project involved the rezoning of this complex site and the development of a  masterplan, including a shopping centre of approximately 8,000sqm, with specialty shops and restaurants and strata offices across the two main frontages.

There are approximately 600 dwellings including apartments, townhouses and residences all set in a landscaped context that represents the best in public amenity, urban fit and built form expression.

A Sustainability framework has been established which outlines principles and targets to minimize the projects environmental impact. WSUD measures will achieve potable water savings, reduce waste water discharges, stormwater pollution and improve recreational and visual amenity. Road ways and open spaces are integral to the WSUD including swales, retention systems and strategies to minimize water runoff and usage.

Tooronga Village represents an opportunity to both revitalise a challenging site while setting new standards in urban design and masterplanning.
