A significant milestone has been reached with Stockwell’s lodgement of a Development Application for a new mixed-use village precinct in the heart of Noosaville.

Buchan is the design lead for the proposed Noosa Civic Mixed Use Village precinct and refurbishment of the existing Noosa Civic shopping centre; part of the broader Noosa Business Centre masterplan to create a vibrant, thriving and sustainable centre for the Noosa community.

The Noosa Civic village precinct will feature a new entertainment and leisure offering, anchored by Reading Cinemas, convenience and specialty retail, build-to-rent apartments and a mix of professional suites and office space.

The new precinct will link into the existing centre by an open air, pedestrian friendly, civic spine, and preserved nature reserve, which will be lined with outdoor cafes, restaurants, and leisure retail, creating both day and nighttime experiences for the local community and visitors.

Buchan has been working together with Stockwell on the Noosa Civic masterplan for more than 15 years and is the lead designer on the current DA.
