Twin high-rise residential towers topping 246m could be built in the centre of Melbourne under an ambitious new plan proposed by developer 3L Alliance.
The $750 million project would be built on a 7,295sqm site at 350 Queen Street and would see a five-level podium topped with dual 79-level residential towers.
The development application, which was lodged in April 2015, includes 1,925sqm of retail space, a 120-space child care facility, 554 car park spaces, 603 bicycle spaces (a 154 bay commercial car park would be included in the basement).
