Over 400 people attended the opening of VicUrban’s Metro Village 3175 residential project during November 2005, in what was hailed byorganisers as a huge success.
The event was the first sneak preview of Stage One of Metro Village 3175, showcasing a mix of housing product including detached single and double storey homes, town homes, and apartment style housing.
Over 50 reservation deposits were secured on the night. VicUrban had over 700 people express their interest in the development in less than two months of promoting the project. The crowd that turned up on the first night was beyond expectations and the best VicUrban has ever had to a brand new development. The release of Stage One was a clear indicator to both VicUrban and Greater Dandenong Council that the future of Dandenong is indeed very positive, and people are jumping at the opportunity to invest in this development and Dandenong’s future.
Metro Village 3175 is considered a critical component of the revitalising Central Dandenong project. It will deliver to the city around 1100 new dwellings and is expected to accommodate up to 3000 new residents to the city. Residents will also enjoy great access to transport services and facilities including direct access to EastLink.
Builders start work on site mid March, with the first new residents expected to move in around late 2006. VicUrban and the City of Greater Dandenong are working collaboratively to design the estate using the principles of transit-oriented development and ecologically sustainable design. Overall, the development will have higher residential densities than traditional outer Melbourne suburban estates, complemented by mixed uses along Cheltenham Road such as local convenience retail, cafes and eateries. Metro Village 3175 will be completed in 7-10 years.
