Groove Properties has lodged a development application with Brisbane City Council for a five-storey mixed-use project at 55–63 Tingal Road, Wynnum. The proposal covers four allotments on the corner of Tingal Road and Chestnut Street and would deliver 26 apartments above a ground-level retail and dining precinct.
According to Tonic Architecture + Design, the built form is designed to step back progressively from Tingal Road to reduce its visual impact. The material palette includes rendered concrete at lower levels, lightweight cladding and decorative brickwork on upper levels, glass balustrades, and metal roofing. Landscaping is integrated across multiple levels, including planters and rooftop greenery.
Prepared by The Landscape Group, the landscape concept provides 292m² of planting at ground level and a further 202m² on upper floors. Key treatments include three-tier planting along boundaries, feature planting at the entry plaza and corner of Tingal Road and Chestnut Street, and the replacement of one street tree with two new plantings along Tingal Road.

The development proposes all vehicle access via Chestnut Street, with three levels of car parking including a loading bay for service vehicles. Colliers’ traffic assessment concluded the 38-vehicle peak traffic generation would have minimal impact on the surrounding network, with compliance achieved for resident and visitor parking supply.
Groove Properties, operating under Groove Developments No 1 Pty Ltd, is behind the Tingal Road proposal. The company has been active in Brisbane’s bayside and inner suburban market, targeting sites that allow mixed-use and higher-density residential projects.
While relatively new compared to larger institutional developers, Groove has sought to distinguish itself through smaller-scale architecturally considered projects that focus on activation of local centres and streetscapes.

Objection to Proposed Development on Tingal Road
I wish to express my strong opposition to the proposed new development. Currently, traffic around Tingal Road is already quite heavy and the area is often noisy as a result. Introducing this new project will significantly increase pressure on all local infrastructure, including water, sewerage, roads and power. These essential services will be most affected, and the resulting strain will have a considerable impact on our community.
One particular concern is that Chestnut Road will become increasingly difficult to navigate due to the expected surge in traffic. Additionally, the presence of delivery trucks servicing the new retailers will pose a genuine problem for local residents, further exacerbating congestion and accessibility issues.
For the wellbeing of our community, I strongly urge you to reconsider and abandon this project.
Regards,
Robert
