Toorak Park is the outcome of a decade of development overtones for an expansive and formerly underutilised site abutting Toorak Station.
Few projects across Melbourne are larger in terms of site size, with developer Lendlease over recent months applying the finishing touches to 446 apartments and 18 townhouses across a host of buildings. What makes Toorak Park particularly impressive though is the extensive greenery and public permeability across its ground plane.
Often by necessity the vast majority of Melbourne's apartments buildings find themselves in a truly urban context; surrounded by other buildings they are small in footprint and often lack expressive, inclusive or even interesting public realm outcomes.
Toorak Park is at the opposite end of the scale; it is not an outwardly flashy development but when roughly 35% of the site's 2.5 hectares has been seeded to green areas or parkland, it becomes an excellent public outcome.
