An 8 sorry building in this precinct is going to block so much light to the majority of properties in Ross Street, Carters and Mathoura Road and completely dominate, and close in, what is “Toorak Village”.
It is a huge site and, when redeveloped should be at most, low rise and in keeping with the surrounding new developments.
This plan was flagged in the newspaper last year and should be high on the council’s agenda to manage the land grab of what is a charming neighbourhood.
It is going to completely ruin the skyline views from every perspective, increase traffic on the side streets and increase noise to the residents. This development needs serious scrutiny and limitations from all parties to ensure the existing residents’ and merchants’ are not swamped by such a huge development. There must be a vigorous objection by all parties who live and work in the vicinity.
Apropos to this, the development of high rise apartments on the corner of Mathoura Road and Toorak Road is already passed and going ahead.
7-11A & 17-19 Carters Avenue, Toorak VIC 3142
