Melbourne demolishes seven aging public housing towers to build mixed-use developments, relocating residents starting July 2026.
Melbourne is demolishing seven public housing towers housing elderly and vulnerable residents, replacing them with mixed-use developments built by private firms leasing land for 40 years.
Relocations begin July 2026, with completion by February 2028, as part of a broader redevelopment aiming to increase social housing by 2051.
The government says demolitions are necessary for safety and affordability, though critics argue refurbishing existing buildings would be cheaper, more sustainable, and less disruptive.
A parliamentary inquiry criticized the government for withholding key documents, and legal challenges persist, with some residents opposing forced relocation despite a court ruling upholding the plan.
