  1. Docklands and Victoria Harbour Field trip

  2. Melbourne Docklands - The Transformation • The area now known as Docklands was once a hunting and meeting place for local Aboriginal people • It became one of Victoria’s first and busiest ports • The last 10 years has seen Melbourne Docklands transform from a disused and derelict part of the city into a new harboursidefor business, residents and visitors.

  3. Location of the Docklands Docklands

  4. Overview • 190 hectares - the same size as the original central business district, including 44 hectares of water • Following consultation with Melbourne’s community and key stakeholders, the State Government made a commitment to redevelop Docklands in 1995. • There are 8 Precincts

  5. Construction commenced in Docklands in 1997 with the building of a new stadium, which triggered the construction of other key infrastructure that would ultimately see Docklands become part of the central city. • In 2000, construction of Docklands’ first homes started in Yarra’s Edge and NewQuay, making way for more than 7,000 residents who now call the area home. • While Docklands continues to transform into a modern residential, commercial and visitor destination, it plays an increasingly important role in the growth of Melbourne as a global city, helping secure it as the world’s most liveable city.

  6. Places Victoria • Places Victoria is the Victorian Government’s land development agency, helping to meet the challenges of population growth and increased housing demand. • Places Victoria facilitates large-scale urban renewal – for residential and mixed-use purposes – within established areas of Melbourne and strategic locations in regional Victoria.

  7. Docklands Community and Place Plan(formerly known as the Second Decade of Docklands project) • As Docklands entered its second decade of development, the time was right to engage with the broader community and key stakeholders to objectively examine all aspects of one of Australia’s largest urban renewal projects. • In 2010, the City of Melbourne and Places Victoria embarked on a community engagement program to determine and test the community priorities for development during Docklands’ second decade.

  8. Docklands Community and Place Plan • The community’s input, together with in-depth planning and design studies, helped shape the shared vision for Docklands’ future, to create a place for people; • a place where liveability is a priority, made possible by quality community infrastructure, welcoming open spaces, interactive street frontages and a vibrant waterfront destination for recreation and leisure.

  9. Docklands Community and Place Plan • Drawing together ideas from the community, lessons from the first decade and future sustainability measures, this document sets out clear directions and actions for Docklands over the next 10 years and beyond. • It also signals a longer-term evolution for growth in the coming decades. • As Docklands’ population increases (to an expected 60,000+ workers and 20,000 residents by 2025), joint planning together with neighbouring future growth areas, such as Fishermans Bend, E-Gate and North Melbourne, will help to consolidate Docklands’ future as a thriving community.

  29. $300 million community infrastructure plan for DocklandsMedia Release from The Minister for Planning The Hon Matthew Guy MLCSunday, 15 July 2012 • Planning Minister Matthew Guy and Lord Mayor Robert Doyle today unveiled a plan for $300 million in community infrastructure projects in Docklands. • This follows the Planning Minister's announcement yesterday that a new cafe, edible garden and outdoor space would be located along Harbour Esplanade. To be known as the Glass House, this temporary activation space seeks to provide the intimacy of a backyard while residents, workers and visitors to Docklands enjoy Melbourne's premiere waterfront destination. • Alongside these projects Lord Mayor Robert Doyle said that the City of Melbourne would kick-start the restoration of the historic Alma Doepel, with a proposal for the ship to be docked at Victoria Harbour, the centrepiece in the waterfront heritage precinct.

  30. A community boating hub, oval and sporting facilities, recreational swimming pool, library and community centre, exhibition and performance spaces, running and walking tracks, and a place of worship are some of the headline projects to be delivered in Docklands over coming years as part of the Docklands Community and Place Plan (DCPP) • Mr Guy said today's announcement was a good example of the strong, long-term partnerships between state, local government and the private sector that are required to make urban renewal projects a success. • "This plan showcases projects that Places Victoriaand the City of Melbourne, together with developers, private and public sectors, are committed to delivering for Docklands,“ • "Although only 50 per cent has been developed to date, Docklands is already an economic hub, having attracted more than $8.5 billion of private investment," Mr Guy said. • "Docklands continues to make a significant contribution to the Victorian economy. The last year alone has seen more than $2.4 billion worth of commercial and residential development under construction across 16 projects, including more than 1,500 dwellings" Mr Guy said.

  31. Lord Mayor Robert Doyle said the release of DCPP is the culmination of more than 18 months of community consultation and reflects the needs of Docklands' evolving community. • "Coupled with the recent announcement that the City of Melbourne will be the responsible planning authority for developments less than 25,000 square metres in Docklands, this package demonstrates a transition from a development stage to one focused on the community. • "We've listened to thousands of residents, workers, visitors and experts, to ensure future development in Docklands meets the needs of its people, now and into the future. • "A great example of this is the new Docklands community garden. With a fire to gather around on a cold day, a range of garden beds and fruit trees, the Docklands garden provides a great new meeting place for locals and visitors." Cr Doyle said.
