Prime West Perth site set for redevelopment
27 June 2019
-
Former Princess Margaret Hospital car park lots under contract to Woolworths Group
-
Redevelopment of the site to complement the adjoining Subi East precinct
Lands Minister Ben Wyatt has today announced the 12
lots that formerly comprised parking for the old Princess Margaret
Hospital have been sold to
Fabcot Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Woolworths
Group, following a competitive process.
Subject to development approval, future development of the site may
include a
shopping centre and residential
apartments, providing valuable
amenity for West
Perth residents, while activating the site and encouraging further
urban infill in the area.
Located within walking distance of the Subiaco East Redevelopment Area,
development of the underutilised site will complement and enhance the
appeal of the entire precinct.
Comments attributed to Lands Minister Ben Wyatt:
"The successful proponent has put forward a proposal that aligns with
our broader vision to reinvigorate the area and complement the
neighbouring
Subi East development.
"I am delighted to see this site, which is surplus to government's
requirements, being repurposed, following an open and competitive
process.
"This is an incredibly unique opportunity to bring more life and
vibrancy to what is one of
Perth's finest central locations."
