From shoe factory to Melbourne’s hottest apartment complex

Once home to a series of shoe manufacturers, soon-to-be-built apartment complex Pace of Abbotsford beautifully and authentically blends old with new.

Paying homage to Abbotsford’s distinctive manufacturing past, the residences will be anchored by the retained art deco facade of the iconic Saint Crispin House (a factory from years gone by). Carefully preserved, the building will be reinvented with one, two and three-bedroom apartments, multi-level townhouses and three-level residences.

Once inside, residents will have a choice between a light or dark interior colour scheme. Modern yet timeless interiors will evoke a light and airy ambiance with timber flooring, high ceilings, double-glazed windows and streamlined kitchens finishing off the look.

Crowning the building will be the rooftop garden with spectacular 360-degree views of the CBD, a 20m infinity pool, gym, lounge and dining area. Two large setbacks on lower levels will offer additional outdoor communal areas, as well as a residents-only library.

A collaboration by Pace Development Group with architects SJB, construction is due to start any time now, with the final project to be completed by mid-2019.
