Vision Apartments is a residential skyscraper built in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. As of 2024, the skyscraper is the seventeenth–tallest building in Melbourne.

History

By early 2009, the Brady Group were proposing to build a residential skyscraper on a site adjacent to the Queen Victoria Market car park. The 1,030 m2 site, which previously hosted a 150–year–old hotel, was bought at an auction for $AUD11.8 million by the property developer, in 2008.[1] After minor changes to design, The Brady Group officially re–launched the project in 2011, wherein plans were tabled for a residential skyscraper which would reach 223 metres (732 feet) in height.[2][3] The proposal included more than 500 residential apartments spanning across 69 levels, in addition to three basement levels.[4]

Approval for the project was granted in November 2012, by the then–Planning Minister, Matthew Guy.[5] Construction on the $400–500 million project commenced in October 2013, whereby a completion date was estimated for some time in mid–2016.[5][6] During construction, the Melbourne City Council discovered that two of three basement car-park levels had not been constructed, despite being present within the 2011 plans for the project; nevertheless, the developer had submitted minor planning amendments to Minister Guy, as to reflect the failure to build the two additional levels.[7] By July 2016, the skyscraper had topped out, and had been completed a few months later.[2]

Vision Apartments is currently the fifth–tallest residential building within the Melbourne CBD core, the ninth tallest residential building in Melbourne, and the seventeenth–tallest building in Melbourne overall.[2]
