MALAYSIAN GROUP'S NORWEST CONCEPT
$15M outdoor plaza
MALAYSIAN conglomerate Mulpha, the developer of the Norwest Business Park, proposes a $15 million concept plan for a 30-hectare parcel of land currently home to the Norwest Private Hospital, Quest Serviced Apartments and Circa Shopping Centre. It has the potential to deliver more than 450,000 square metres of floor space and more than 25,000 jobs. The precinct would comprise a central outdoor plaza and commercial core of office buildings with ground floor shops, cafes, restaurants and bars.
GROWTH DRIVES CASTLE TOWERS UPGRADE
$20 million upgrade
THE $20 million upgrade of the Castle Towers shopping centre will transform the centre into an urban shopping, entertainment and leisure hub, which will increase the centre’s size by up to 80,000 square metres, in response to population growth in the region.
TRAFFIC CONCERNS STOP COMPLEX
$40m plan refused
UNREASONABLE traffic safety, land-use conflict and inadequate parking have led to the refusal of a $40 million entertainment facility proposed for an industrial complex at McGraths Hill, by a private entertainment group, represented by local planning group, Montgomery Planning Solutions.
