12-Storey Residential Tower in West End Approved by Council

A development application by Tocu Properties has been approved for a 12-storey residential tower at 28 Beesley Street, West End, Brisbane. The approved project includes high-density residential apartments with ground-level retail spaces and basement-level car parking facilities.

Woods Bagot, the architectural firm behind this project, has crafted a modern design that incorporates natural elements along the street frontages of Beesley and Filmer Streets. Their approach to the facade integrates planter boxes and promotes cross-ventilation, aiming to create a sustainable living environment. According to the design statement, the building’s aesthetic seeks to “harmonise with the evolving urban character of West End,” while providing access to ample natural light and fresh air for residents.

The building also includes a rooftop terrace designed as a communal space for residents, featuring landscaped gardens, seating areas, and recreational amenities. Podium-level planted areas and ground-floor communal facilities further enhance the living experience by offering green spaces for social interaction and relaxation.

Landscape design for the development is being led by RPS, which has integrated a variety of natural elements to enhance the site’s connection to the urban fabric. Key landscape features include deep planting around the perimeter to soften the building’s edges, retention of mature street trees along Filmer Street, and rooftop garden spaces for communal use. These green spaces are designed to improve the residents’ quality of life by providing shaded, natural areas for relaxation and social gatherings.

Information Request Response

In response to Brisbane City Council’s information request, several revisions were made to the design. These include a reconfigured basement to allow for more deep planting along Beesley and Filmer Streets, the retention of a key street tree along Filmer Street, and the addition of facade planters to improve airflow and natural lighting in the building’s corridors. Additionally, the driveway width was expanded to accommodate larger service vehicles.

Brisbane City Council has granted approval with specific conditions:

• Maintain Approved Development: The building must comply with the approved drawings and any additional Council requirements.
• Protection of Infrastructure: Public infrastructure like roads, footpaths, and utilities must be safeguarded, with any damage promptly repaired by the developer.
