Frequently asked questions

What is the size of the land and available floor space at 19 Torrens Street?

The site sits on approximately 1,195 m² of land. This provides ample area for a sizeable office footprint or mixed‑use development within the existing parcel

What zoning applies to the property and what development heights are permitted?

The site is in the zone south of Haig Park between Mort and Torrens streets, which allows mixed‑use developments. Typically up to 22 m (6–7 storeys) are permitted, with a reduced height of 16 m (5 storeys) directly facing Torrens Street, and up to 30 m (about 10 storeys) where it backs onto Cooyong Street

Is the location suitable for a local‑government or administrative office?

Yes – the property is currently occupied by Purdon, a local‑government office, indicating the zoning and building envelope support such use. The surrounding commercial precinct offers convenient services for staff and visitors

What public transport options are nearby?

The Elouera Street Metro station is roughly 0.4 km away, providing easy rail access. Major arterial roads such as Northbourne Avenue also run close by, linking the site to the Canberra CBD

What amenities are within walking distance for employees and clients?

Within 0.2–0.5 km you’ll find parks (Rugby League Park, Northbourne Oval), cafés (Gus’s), breweries (Bentspoke Brewing Co, Capital Brewing Company), hotels (Avenue Hotel, Mantra on Northbourne), and the Ainslie Arts Centre. These provide convenient dining, leisure and accommodation options

Are there any heritage considerations that could affect redevelopment?

The broader Braddon area includes several heritage‑listed sites, such as the Braddon Garden City precinct, former Coggan’s Bakery and the Gorman House Arts Centre. While the 19 Torrens Street site itself isn’t listed, any redevelopment should account for nearby heritage constraints

How would you describe the surrounding commercial environment?

Braddon’s commercial hub centred on Mort and Lonsdale streets features a mix of art galleries, restaurants, cafés, boutique shops and service businesses. This vibrant setting supports a range of professional and public‑service tenants
