Urban Structure

The proposed urban structure as shown in Figure 16 is defi ned from the internal movement network. The block structure supports views to key landmarks and public places providing street defi nition through quality built form edges and landscape. A new public accessible street will connect Burwood Road with Zoeller Street, creating a regular width street block with Duke Avenue. The arrangement of activities within this structure allows the Concept Plan to deliver a variety of housing types, shops and services to meet the needs of local residents of the site and surrounding areas. The structure provides the ability to locate business, retail, and commercial focused uses at the ground fl oor to activate publicly accessible open space. These uses may be located within the structure to minimise impact on amenity of surrounding existing low density residential development, however to provide a permeable site for the residents who occupy the surrounding development to access and use these business, retail and community focused uses.
