The development of Federation Square East (FSE) will revitalise the north bank of the Yarra River to better integrate Melbourne’s central business district with the River and Melbourne’s cultural, sporting and entertainment precincts.

The site is bounded by Federation Square to the west, Flinders Street to the north, Batman Avenue to the east and Birrarung Marr to the south (FSE Site). It comprises approximately 3.3 hectares of land of which 2.3 hectares will require building above rail lines and one hectare of which is currently largely used for car parking.

This Expression of Interest (EOI) is an opportunity to convey your interest and demonstrate the capability, capacity and innovation necessary to deliver a vibrant and commercially viable mixed use development of exceptional design quality at FSE without a capital contribution or regulatory relaxation by Government.

The Government is seeking Submissions that identify and explain the intended approach to development, design and integration of mixed uses that will fulfil the vision for the FSE Site. This information will be used to identify a short list of Respondents who will be invited to participate in the subsequent Request for Proposal (RFP) stage of this Procurement Process.

The specific requirements in relation to the services are set out in the attached EOI.
