A massive redevelopment of a bayside precinct has been unveiled, with apartments, office, more retail space and boutique cinemas to be included in the multi-stage plan.

“The proposal will be delivered in stages to allow the shopping centre to remain operational

throughout construction,” the application stated.

The developer also announced plans for 184 units to be built across eight buildings.

“The residential units are located above podium level and are accessed via lobbies located at ground level public space and within the various carparking basements,” it said.
