Ascot City, 130 Ballarat Road, Footscray

The former manufacturing premises of Kinnear Ropes occupy 33000 sq metres of land fronting three streets. The building is rich in history and is one of the prominent iconic buildings in Footscray with its fortress like walls stretching for more than 300 metres along Ballarat Road.

The Riverside Group have embarked on a bold vision to redevelop the Kinnears site into a truly mixed-use development which will make it an exciting urban precinct. The development will incorporate leading edge design and the finest standards in sustainable development practice.

Specialised retail and entertainment spaces, community spaces, supermarket, offices, showrooms and a variety of residential uses including a student village, serviced apartments and residential towers will be available in this exciting development. The building will be interspaced by carefully crafted urban and landscaped spaces. A unique feature of this development will be the recreation of the historic laneways into intimate retail and entertainment spaces.
