WE UNDERSTAND THAT A GREAT LOCATION CANNOT BE COMPROMISED ONDeveloping properties in premium locations is a fundamental principle to both our success as a company and the ongoing success of our customers’ investments.

A great location is surrounded by lifestyle amenities, services and infrastructure. Buying real estate in a great location provides owner occupiers with a high quality lifestyle and investors with high demand, safeguarding their investment in respect to vacancy, rental returns and speed of resale.

Over the past three decades PDG has developed a range of CBD residential towers in addition to a range of quality boutique projects within the inner suburbs. Each of which has been selected first and foremost for their outstanding location. This variety in product allows us to cater for a wider customer base and investors looking to build a diverse portfolio of quality properties.

In the 1990’s the City of Melbourne and the State Government of Victoria introduced a planning strategy called the Postcode 3000 policy to attract residential development and ultimately a permanent population to the CBD and St Kilda Road precincts. Living in the central city area puts less strain

on public transport and roads, allows residents easy access to lifestyle amenities, work and educational institutions as well as providing a more consistent customer base for retailers. In the two decades since the Postcode 3000 policy’s inception, the CBD population has grown to approximately 30,000 residents.

PDG has historically focused on inner Melbourne sites for the development of both residential and commercial property. Our first tower development in the CBD was Franklin Lofts, located at the northern boundary of the Hoddle Grid. It was constructed in the early 2000’s in response to the Postcode 3000 policy and was modelled on the emerging trend for New York style loft apartments. We recognised the benefit that centrally located properties provided and as such Franklin Lofts met the market with strong levels of demand and sold out extremely quickly.

Since the completion of Franklin Lofts we have developed a number of apartment towers in this desirable and convenient location, each time focussing on liveability and quality above all else.

WE FINISH WHAT WE START Over the past three decades we have brought to life a range of high-rise towers and boutique apartment projects across inner-Melbourne. In fact, we have completed every project that we have ever started. Not only this, but we are there for the long term, managing our clients’ investments and ensuring that the building itself is cared for well into the future.

With each building we develop, we strive to exceed our clients’ expectations. Over 80% of our clients are repeat purchasers or have referred their family and friends to us. They know that we are committed to delivering on our promises to them personally and on the projects that we launch.

We have achieved this track record by ensuring that we develop properties that people want to buy, properties which are fundamentally great places to live. And we stay flexible to the changing needs of our clients and the market.

Our focus is purely on developing the best possible properties in Melbourne. We live and breathe this city and in turn we inject this passion and local knowledge into our work.

As a starting point for each new project, our in-house team of architects, designers, project managers and marketing experts delve into the history, character and culture of each location that we identify for a possible development. In a collaborative fashion we then apply this knowledge to our building designs to ensure that the end product will sit comfortably within the local area and be embraced by its community.

Each building is unique, having been designed on its own merits to suit the local market of owner occupiers, but also to deliver good investment opportunities. Through Disegno Australia, we also have the in-house capabilities of being able to then further personalise the designs of each individual property to suit the needs of its inhabitants.

ROYAL ELIZABETH151 Berkeley Street, Melbourne Apartments: 147 Completion Date: 2017

Royal Elizabeth will take its place at the culmination of Elizabeth Street and Royal Parade on the northern edge of the Melbourne CBD. The 19-storey building calls on the groves of local eucalyptus to present a thoroughly modern and liveable interpretation of the classic Australian gum tree.

Entering in through the luxurious ground floor lobby is the heart and hearth of the tree’s trunk. Tessellated tile walls form a rough bark skin and paved travertine flooring suggest the concentric circles of a tree’s growth rings.

Climbing up to the apartments inside, intricate detailing and abundant storage are key characteristics. Relaxed interiors house monolithic granite benches with silvery oak paneling, luxe woolen carpet, custom vanities, and jewel-like vitrines.

The tree’s canopy on level 19 is a warm, communal sun-drenched space with a fully equipped gymnasium and yoga room, a luxurious lounge, private dining room, catering kitchen and an barbeque terrace with timber clad scalloped seating areas wrapping the perimeter.

501 SWANSTON TOWER 501 Swanston Street, Melbourne 17 levels of commercial tenants Completion Date: 2015

Originally constructed to house Ansett Australia in 1978, 501 Swanston Street’s distinguished octagonal shape and prominent corner location has made it a well-recognised building within the Melbourne city skyline. Positioned on the northern edge of the CBD, it enjoys a close proximity to Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne Central Station and a wide range of business, transport and leisure amenities.

In 2002 PDG purchased the building from Ansett and in mid-2012 the Zagame Group became co-owners with a view to future proof this landmark office tower and transform it into one of Melbourne’s most innovative and enjoyable places for organisations to work. This was achieved by providing amenities that are uniquely different to any other office building in the area, with an unwavering focus on quality design and construction.

501 Swanston Tower is home to the largest Audi Super Centre in Australia and a Maserati showroom. It is also the new Victorian head office for Brookfield Multiplex and Cardno. Other tenants include RMIT, Meinhardt and the Australian Defence Force. Major renovation work including a full upgrade of the building services and level fit-outs were completed in early 2015 by Brookfield Multiplex.
