Plans for a significant redevelopment in Lincoln city centre are moving forward

Exciting news! Have you heard about FSR? FSR stands for Floor Space Ratio, and it's a new initiative aimed at creating more apartment building zoning around transit areas. The goal is to promote housing that is less car dependent and strategically located near existing or upcoming transportation networks. This will not only increase housing options but also contribute to sustainable urban development. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project! . . . . #FSR #transitorienteddevelopment #housingoptions #sustainableurbandevelopment

Recently our Head of Urban Transformations Aras Labutis joined an expert panel at Urban Taskforce Australia 2024 Conference, which posed this question for industry stakeholders, TODs: The Future or Failure? Minister for Planning and Public Spaces Paul Scully MP, Secretary of the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure Kiersten Fishburn, Deputy Secretary Monica Gibson and Infrastructure NSW Chief Executive Tom Gellibrand, all gave updates and valuable insights into the current status of the TODs (Transport Oriented Developments) planning reforms. Aras spoke of how TODs can accelerate housing supply by leveraging existing infrastructure, but also pointed to some of the looming ‘blockages’ in the policy that could impact the feasibility and delivery of developments, and how we need to focus on accelerating housing supply delivery during the Housing Accord period.   Coronation’s pipeline of projects, including our multi award-winning Mason & Main mixed-use development in the Merrylands town centre and our planned Moore Point ‘Mini-City’ at Liverpool, align with the TOD Program, delivering a stream of new, well-located homes close to transport, jobs and amenities. #coronation #propertydevelopment #nswplanning #transportorienteddevelopment #housingsupply #urbandesign

Birmingham City Council rejected plans for a 42-story residential tower above a Grade II-listed building. While some councillors called the proposal "bonkers" the developers see it as a potential way to revitalise an unused site. This situation raises interesting questions about balancing modern development with preserving historic character in our cities. Can modern high-rise development coexist with historic buildings? Are there successful examples of such projects? https://lnkd.in/eCk-cRCp
