City of Fremantle unanimously approved a mixed use development that will reinvigorate our East End, bringing over 200 new apartments and space for 2 new restaurants to a location that desperately needs activation.
While JDAP will have the final say on the development, approval was given to demolish all existing buildings on the subject site and construct an eight (8) storey (plus basement level) mixed use development comprising:
- 215 Multiple Dwellings across ground floor up to Level 7, including;
- 108 x one-bed/studio apartments (50.2%)

- 2 x ‘Restaurant/Café’ tenancies at ground floor on north-east and south-east corners of building (583 sqm total floor area).
On-site parking provisions (across basement and ground floor levels):
- 214 total car bays including;
- 209 residential parking bays; and
- 5 non-residential staff parking bays.
- 56 resident bicycle bays in ground floor store (plus intent for resident bicycles to be parked within unit store).
- 4 x non-residential staff bicycle bays.
The subject site comprises a single lot (Lot 34, №8 Point Street, Fremantle) that is approximately 5015sqm in area and is bound and has frontage to Point Street (to the south), Cantonment Street (to the west), Adelaide Street (to the east) and Princess May Park (to the north). The existing site contains a three-level public car parking facility beside an at-grade, hardstand public car parking facility known as the Point Street car park.
This is not the first time a development approval has been given to this site, in 2019 a Hilton Hotel was approved on the site, see the story here:
