Kane Constructions was awarded the Design and Construct contract by Homes Victoria to deliver 73 social and 71 affordable apartments in North Richmond.
The development provided safe, secure and modern housing, designed to support the needs of a diverse community. Each apartment was architecturally designed to make the most of open space and natural light, contributing to a strong sense of home and community.
Environmental performance was a key focus, with the buildings achieving a 5 Star Green Star rating and an average 7 Star NatHERS rating. The development included a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments, allowing for flexibility and responding to the changing needs of Victorian households.
At least 5 percent of the social housing apartments were delivered to enhanced accessibility standards. This included accessible drop-off areas, paths, lifts and car parking, as well as carefully designed kitchens, bathrooms and storage spaces to ensure ease of use for residents with disabilities.
The project was shaped by a strong commitment to inclusivity, creating a welcoming and respectful environment that reflects the character and needs of the North Richmond community. It formed part of the Victorian Government’s Big Housing Build to increase the supply of high-quality, sustainable housing across the state.
The project reached Practical Completion in mid-2025.
