North Melbourne Community Hub endorsed by Council


September 4, 2025

The final concept design for the new North Melbourne Community Hub was endorsed by the Future Melbourne Committee on 2 September.

The final concept plan was informed by two rounds of community engagement. It will improve access to services and deliver more high-quality spaces for the growing North Melbourne community.

As part of the endorsement, the Future Melbourne Committee requested there be further exploration into whether the building's multi-story staircase can be incorporated as a feature that encourages incidental physical activity. This will be explored in the next design phase.

Thank you to everyone who contributed their feedback. Consultation took place in August to October 2023 and again from 20 November to 18 December 2024. Learn more about what we heard on our community consultation page.

We look forward to providing further updates in coming weeks.
