Rogerscorp Plots Waterfront Midrise Twin-Tower Play at Robina
Brisbane-based developer Rogerscorp has pitched plans for a two-tower, midrise residential project comprising 173 apartments at Robina on the Gold Coast.
The proposal is slated for a 4907sq m site at 75-77 Laver Drive, a vacant holding being used as a gravel carpark.
According to property records, the site—an amalgamation of two lots of 2000sq m and 2907sq m—last changed hands in September of 2025 for $9.21 million.
It was acquired by an entity linked to Rogerscorp managing director Simon Rogers.
To be delivered in two stages, the purely residential play would deliver a mix of 26 one-bedroom, 113 two-bedroom, and 34 three-bedroom apartments across twin towers rising nine-storeys.
But a planning report noted that due to the site’s natural topographical fall towards the neighbouring Mudgeeraba Creek, the development would present as eight storeys from the Laver Drive streetscape.
Under the scheme designed by MAS Architecture, the apartments would sit atop a single basement level and a ground-floor podium-like structure housing 225 car parking bays alongside 137 bicycle spaces.
The report said the proposal’s diverse mix of apartment types and sizes would contribute to increased housing choice for a range of demographics and support housing affordability within the Robina Town Centre area.
“The efficient, midrise apartment format supports a more attainable price point than larger suburban [homes], while still delivering high levels of residential amenity, landscape integration and access to the Robina Town Centre’s services, open spaces and public transport network,” it said.
The twin towers are to be intentionally separated by a mid-block break, with a shared “generously sized” communal recreation area—including a pool, gymnasium, lawn terrace and function room—between them in a central podium position on level one.
Architecturally, the proposed development has been designed to complement its waterside setting with features including softly curved slab edges, vertical screening elements and extensive glazing.
“The proposed development reinforces and contributes to the emerging urban identity of the Riverwalk Precinct within Robina Town Centre, including the transition to a midrise residential neighbourhood that is well connected, by virtue of its visually appealing built form, functional design and high level of connectivity to public, private and active transport opportunities,” the documents said.
