8 stories for that part of Hawthorn road could be an ambit claim. They will get 6 at least. Forget driving down this road or even parking. A nightmare already.

Ugly. This looks like shipping containers stuck one on top of the other.

Aesthetics comes way down the list of matters significant to developers. Council doesn’t give it much time or thought either.
One can only hope the investors who use their super to by these eyesores end up like so many at Docklands – ie lose heaps and/or can’t sell them.

Any fool that uses super funds to buy a unit in Glen Eira is a dope. The idea of super is to get a good return. As Glen Eira seems to have an infinite potential to build more units the price of existing units will not be rising. Anyone that used their super fund to buy a unit in Docklands must be feeling pretty sorry now. Financial advisors are getting huge slings for tipping hapless suckers into off the plan units.

It’s zoned commercial so no height controls exist, no need for an ambit claim.

1154-1158 Glen Huntly Rd is especially egregious. It was rezoned C1Z yet has 2 sensitive residential interfaces, both zoned GRZ. Council did so knowing full well that there was no height limits and no residential amenity standards that future development would have to comply with. VCAT confirmed that when it set aside subsequent Council decision re 1242-1248 Glen Huntly Rd. VCAT pointed out Glenhuntly is an Activity Centre, same as Carnegie, hence same role and scale is to be expected under Plan Melbourne. It has also ruled that if you live next to a Commercial Zone you’re not entitled to have your amenity protected. Mary Delahunty argued for C80 and the change to C1Z, so she should be delighted to see this application waved through.
