Development north of Melbourne CBD approved

The Herald Sun is reporting State Planning Minister Justin Madden has approved Grocon's propsal for the old Carlton Brewery site on Swanston Street. The $800 million project will feature five distinct buildings, including a 66-storey tower on the corner of Bouverie and Victoria streets. The old Carlton Bewery bluestone wall will be retained, and integrated into the development. The project is expected to begin by the end of the year.

The project does not encompass The Queensbury Hotel also located on the same block.
