PLANS for a 13 storey tower in the centre of Frankston have been unveiled.

Developer Urban DC is planning to build the apartment tower at 446-450 Nepean Highway, the former site of the Pint and Pickle tavern. The building will have 107 apartments and retail on the ground floor.

The proposal, titled Harbour by the developer, will still need council approval before it can proceed. Urban DC says it has submitted plans to Frankston Council for assessment.

Urban DC is also behind the project currently under construction at 1-2 Plowman Place, which will be a nine-storey apartment tower when complete. The company’s director Danny Ciarma says that the response to the Plowman Place project “gives us great confidence in bringing our follow-up project Harbour to Frankston. It is very clear that locals are seeking the kind of premium, high quality luxury living you might get in the inner city, but further down the coast.”

“Frankston is undergoing a transformation as more people sea change to the bayside craving outdoors and waterside environments,” he said.  “The Frankston Hospital is currently undergoing a $605 million redevelopment and the Chisholm Frankston expansion are just two projects that indicate the investment and potential of Frankston, while Frankston has been consistently listed as one of the most searched coastal towns on real estate apps. This decade will be a turning point for Frankston.”

Early plans for the Nepean Highway development also feature a 25 metre pool, jacuzzi, gym, sauna, wine room, and a function room.

    These eyesores are going to completely block the view of the beach from every resident in the area. Someone at the council must be having their pockets lined to greenlight high rise buildings on the highway.
