READ NOWIt proposes a mix of one, two and three-bedroom units and 153 residents’ parking bays across the seven storeys.
West of the apartments along Davenport Street will be a four-storey and a two-storey building for commercial tenancies.
An architectural statement by architects Hames Sharley said the development was designed as a “transitional building between the suburban context and the shopping centre via its scale, density and form”.
The City of Stirling is seeking feedback on the proposal, which will be decided by the Metro North-West Development Assessment Panel.
The plans are contrary to the local planning policy as building street setbacks are less than the minimum required.
Submissions close Thursday, August 23.
