Recent Developments

In 2019 Mr Carpets Floorworld sold the site for a reported $8 million to developer DPG who announced plans to turn the site into apartments.

The new building, designed by Jackson Clements Burrows Architects, was originally planned as an 11 storey apartment complex which would retain the original theatres facade, but would have removed an 80 year old Dutch elm tree from the rear of the property. These plans were met with considerable pushback from residents, but were tentatively approved by Yarra City Council in September 2021.

Although the building is considered “significant” by Heritage Victoria it is not protected.
