Brisbane-based Panettiere Developments has submitted a development application for three build-to-rent towers comprising a total of 1001 apartments located at 75 Longland Street in Newstead.
The large development which is known as the Newstead Collective comprises of three stepped towers ranging in heights of 25 to 33 storeys.
Designed by Bureau Proberts, the mixed-use development would also include a retail arcade running through the project which is known in the application as ‘little italy’.
According to Panettiere Development, this retail arcade would be themed as an italian precinct and feature a mix of cafes, restaurants, bars, beauty, health and wellbeing options across 19 retail tenancies.
A 1880’s heritage character cottage located on site will be retained and restored on site. According to the development application, the adaptive reuse will see the cottage turned into a retail or commercial space.
The development would feature a central piazza with cross block links running between Stratton, Longland and Kyabra Streets.
Widened and landscaped footpaths will create an intimate and slowed vehicle environment. This will enable dining and retail at ground level to thrive and define the space as a truly unique destination in Brisbane.

This proposal supersedes an approved 20-storey build-to-sell residential proposal by Panettiere Developments on the site known as ‘The Oro‘ which was designed by Urban Solutions Architects.
The developer, Panettiere Developments is looking for a joint venture partner to get the build-to-rent project off the ground and says BTR operators are looking for large scale projects in Brisbane. Panettiere has engaged Colliers to launch an international campaign for the site.

The ground floor plane is interesting if the tenant mix is achieved and ultimately delivered. The number of apartments are sure to be needed and the incorporation of ‘buildings that breathe’ approach to design is also positive. The number of 3 bedroom apartments is likely short and there are no 4 bed options for families. Downside, the bulk and scale of these buildings are oppressive and the colour treatments / indentations and tiered roof lines are simply not enough to soften the overriding monotony and bulk. No doubt the shadowing here will be an issue (particularly in winter) and the wind tunnel effect will likely ensure no one wants to occupy the laneways (remember Bureau Probert’s McLaughlin, Ann and Connor St scheme with office and apartment – no tenants last as the laneway functions as a permanent hairdryer). On balance, it’s a no.
No need for a gym with those lift ratios. Residents will spend most of their tim in the stairs
Looks like a good, active ground plane that will contribute positively to Longland Street becoming a retail precinct. Also great to see much-needed housing.
BCC should look at street improvements like bike lanes to support the development of the street, there also needs to be much better pedestrian and cycling infrastructure generally between Newstead and the CBD – with continued high growth in the inner north east BCC needs to come to the party and provide links to encourage people to walk and cycle to work
While the housing that this project brings is very much needed, the roads and transportation infrastructure in and around the general Gasworks area is woefully inadequate to handle the addition of several hundred more cars & trucks to the area.
Newstead (especially Longland St.) is now a zone of windswept, sunless canyons. Sure we need more accommodation in Brisbane, but not at the expense of fresh air and sunlight. Eighteenth century architects taught us the value of this. The human scale of Brisbane is being lost to sheer corporate greed and no amount of “well being” outlets will ever compensate.
If this project is going ahead, it will block sunlight to many neighboring residential buildings. People would feel like they live in a coffin which is sunless and grey all the time. The road around the areas is a war zone as it is. We would appreciate this project goes elsewhere.
