Sunland Group: New $1.3b Gold Coast mini-city The Lanes reaches new milestone

The first tower of a $1.3 billion mini-city in the Gold Coast’s heart has been revealed as the mega development reaches a big new milestone.

THE first tower of a $1.3 billion mini-city in the Gold Coast’s heart has been revealed after scaffolding was removed.

More than 16,000 sqm of scaffolding is being removed from Sunland Group’s The Lanes Residences’ two towers – one is 10 storeys and the other is 12 – this week as the project moves towards its next milestone.

Sunland managing director Sahba Abedian said the glass buildings would appear over coming weeks.

“The community will start to see the unique design of the two buildings and gain a fresh appreciation for what is a work of architectural art in the making,” he said.

“Once the scaffold is removed, The Lanes Residences will continue to transform as the glass reinforced concrete sculptural elements are applied on the exterior of the building, defining the development’s architectural facade.”

Each of the buildings will have between 70 and 80 apartments, with a mixture of one-, two- and three-bedroom luxury units and penthouses

Apartments in the first stage of The Lanes Residences, known as the “East Village’’, are scheduled for completion in mid-2021 and priced from $475,000 to $1.825 million.

Sunland first unveiled the project in December 2018.

There will be a total of 642 bedrooms in the towers which, along with already approved buildings and completed townhouses, mean there will ultimately be 1262 bedrooms across the precinct.

It will sit alongside the $200 million Lanes Shopping Centre and Lakes residential precinct.
