WORK on the 14-storey apartment building at 446-450 Nepean Highway in Frankston got underway with a sod turning event last week. The $140 million “Harbour” development will house 94 apartments. The developer also plans to include retail outlets, a wellness centre, a gymnasium, and food offerings.
Frankston mayor Kris Bolam attended the site last week to mark the beginning of works. He said “Harbour Frankston aligns with the development envisaged in council’s FMAC Structure Plan, offering more housing choice to our market, and creating homes in the heart of our CBD that will boost local businesses, and make our city centre safer and more vibrant.”
VCAT gave the green light to the development in April 2024. Frankston Council approved the Harbour proposal in 2022 (“High-rise building approved” The Times 22/4/2024).
The project is scheduled for completion in 2028.
