Could vacant office buildings in Melbourne be repurposed to boost housing supply?

A new study by globally-reputed design studio Hassell reveals that there are approximately 90 office buildings built before 1990 in Melbourne that could be converted into housing for up to 20,000 people.

In a property audit of the city centre, conducted by the design studio Hassell and planning consultancy Ethos Urban for the Property Council of Australia, more than 80 unoccupied and underused office buildings in Melbourne’s CBD have been identified as prime candidates “really ripe for adaptive re-use”, ie ready to be converted into more than 10,000 new homes. “If we only converted half of those, we could supply around 10,000 to 12,000 new homes, and each repurposed building would use roughly half the upfront embodied carbon compared to knocking existing buildings down and rebuilding,” said Ingrid Bakker, principal at Hassell.
