Northshore Hamilton

The $5 billion Northshore Hamilton urban redevelopment is underway, with thousands of apartments expected to be built in the next 10 years.  About 15,000 new residents are expected to move into this area, which is an old port and industrial precinct 6 km down river from Brisbane City.
  • Two Devine apartment buildings are almost complete, with a third on the way.
  • Brookfield Multiplex is building another Portside apartment building, Promenade (172 apartment), with two more planned.
  • Citimark has development approval for Rivana, 15 levels with 208 apartments.
  • Mirvac has a three building apartment complex planned, with a sales display office constructed onsite.
  • Australand has launched 78 apartments as part of its $400 million project, Hamilton Reach.
Will there be an oversupply of small, non-riverfront apartments in this part of Hamilton, where there are few facilities and not much within walking distance?

Hamilton Harbour

Update from Devine:

"Construction at Hamilton Harbour is progressing on schedule; the rise of Brisbane’s newest lifestyle Mecca will be completed by Christmas 2011. With the first tower, Harbour One, already beyond level 20 and internal fit out is occurring from level 1 to 17; and Harbour Two now at level 11 with the internal fit out occurring from level 1 to level 8, excitement is definitely building as the project becomes a reality."

"With construction well under way, the first two residential apartment towers of Hamilton Harbour are on schedule to be completed prior to Christmas 2011.

Riverside Hamilton, the third and final residential stage in prestigious Hamilton, is selling fast and due to commence construction later this year with completion in 2013."

Hamilton Harbour is located on the busy Kingsford Smith Drive, and is not riverfront, but one block back from the river.

A tiny 61 sqm internal two bedroom apartment with views to the airport and not the river is available from $533,000 on level 15, or $485,000 on level 2.

Reminds me of the article about the shrinking apartment size. Clearly, this building is aimed at investors and not residents.

More Details from Colliers Apartment Report

A post below mentioned the Colliers September 2010 Brisbane Apartment report. See "Why Are Colliers Optimistic". Some more details:

See this report:

Lachlan Walker, Colliers International project management & research - residential, says the Brisbane apartment market is in a similar position in the property cycle as it was more than a decade ago, where the market was looking more positive and just a few years from a major property boom, following a substantial period of depressed market conditions.

"The resounding theme for the September 2010 quarter is that the Brisbane Apartment market has made strong progress in recovering from the effects of the GFC," he says.

"It has been a difficult two years since the impacts of the declining US economy impacted the Australian property market, however the most recent quarter has seen the strongest rate of sale for the Brisbane market since 2004."

The report revealed that there were 425 unconditional sales of new apartments within Brisbane's Inner Ring, encompassing the five kilometre radius from the CBD, representing an increase of 21 per cent per cent from the 276 sales recorded in the June 2010 quarter. This brings the total unconditional sales for the 2010 year to-date to 977 transactions for Brisbane's Inner Ring, 182 more transactions than recorded for the entire 2009 calendar year. It must be noted that 32 per cent or 135 of the 425 unconditional sales were recorded in Laing O'Rourke's new residential release, M & A, in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley.

Other strong performers were FKP's The Milton to be developed by FKP which registered 68 unconditional sales for the three month period, as well as Devine's Riverside Hamilton and Aria Property Group's Station 16, which saw 41 and 42 sales respectively.

Devine Hamilton

The Australian Financial Review included an advertisement last week stating that Devine had received construction finance for Hamilton Harbour.

Devine has also started to market a new building on the same site, Riverside Hamilton.
