The extensive facilities on offer at Pace 3058, Coburg off the plan apartment development

For centuries, Australia's oldest prisons have taken up prime land across the country.

It's the case in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs where Long Bay jail occupies 32 hectares of prime eastern suburbs real estate that has long been touted as a potential to somewhat curb some of Sydney's crippling housing supply issue.

In Brisbane, there's the now-closed H.M. Prison Brisbane, more commonly known as Boggo Road Gaol, one of the most notorious prisons in the country before it closed its doors in the 1980s. That still sits on a prime near 10-hectare block of land in Dutton Park, just south of the city and on the fringe of Woolloongabba, the focal point of the 2032 Brisbane Summer Olympics.

The Melbourne Assessment Prison is located in one of the most sought-after and busy spots in the heart of the Victorian capital, straddling both Spencer and La Trobe Streets in the heart of the city.

These prisons sit on blocks of land that will likely never be traded, which is why when the HMAS Pentridge Prison in Coburg shut down operations in the late 1990s, astute developers swooped on the 6.7-hectare parcel which is located near the centre of <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/coburg-vic">Coburg</a>.

One of those developers was Pace, who secured a site that was formerly the exercise yard of the prison. The site Pace acquired left them with a relatively blank canvas compared to some other developers who bought parts of the prison which had to be retained as part of the redevelopment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24822 project_image_fid=254327]

While not having to follow strict heritage rules, architecture firm <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/sjb-architects">SJB Architects</a> still looked to the old prison for inspiration.

"You see the old bluestone walls and you want to embrace its history," former SJB Director Tristan Wong said.

"It's so important, and it is a special part of Coburg's history. Those memories are still there and very visible, but there's now just this much more, community-focused, locally-inspired project. it's like it's had this rebirth or regeneration of its former youth."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24822 project_image_fid=254339]

Pace will soon be welcoming residents to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/pace-3058-coburg-9s-wardens-walk-coburg">Pace 3058</a>, a collection of 311 apartments and townhouses&nbsp;that are slated for completion in the coming months.

The location has been a major driver in interest given it's just 13-minute walk from Coburg Station and the town centre.

Nestled behind Sydney Road, Pace 3058 is surrounded by expansive parklands, bike trails, and a diverse selection of restaurants and cafes.

The nearest park,&nbsp;Coburg Lake Reserve, is&nbsp;only an eight-minute stroll from Pace 3058, offering picnic areas, playgrounds, barbecue facilities, and walking and bike paths surrounding the lake.&nbsp;There is also a Palace Cinemas within a five-minute walk of Pace 3058.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24822 project_image_fid=254321]

Jackson Reserve, a busier recreational park, featuring&nbsp;an off-leash dog area,&nbsp;a playground, an adjoining basketball stadium, and a track and field oval&nbsp;is just a quick five-minute drive away.

Several retail and dining options also surround the development, starting with The Boot Factory across the street, The Glass Den towards the rear of the property, and O’Hey Cafe an eight-minute walk away.&nbsp;

Moreover, residents are only a three-minute walk to Coburg Farmers’ Market, five minutes to Ritchies IGA Fine Food and Wine Merchants, and just within a kilometre from the closest Woolworths and Coles.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24822 project_image_fid=254326]

Completing the ideal location checklist for family buyers, Pace 3058 not only offers proximity to parks, playgrounds, retail, and dining options but also sits just 400 metres from Coburg Primary School and 850 metres from Coburg High School.

Health services are also nearby, with Merri Health only an eight-minute walk, and Harding Street Medical Centre, a five-minute drive away from Pace 3058.

Prospective buyers can choose from one, two, and three-bedroom DDA-compliant apartments, as well as double-storey three-bedroom townhouses.

Australia's inner-city prisons and their potential for new apartment development

A year after launching their Coburg apartment development, longtime developer Pace has released its final stage.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/pace-3058-coburg-9s-wardens-walk-coburg">PACE 3058</a>, designed by <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/sjb-architects">SJB Architect</a>, comprises over 300 apartments and a handful of townhouses, which are expected to be completed half way through this year.

Located on Wardens Walk, once the exercise yard for Her Majesty’s Prison Pentridge which was established in 1851 and closed at the end of the twentieth century, is ideally located half way between Coburg and Batman train stations.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24822 project_image_fid=254449]

&nbsp;

Pace has collaborated with Studio Wonder for interiors of the one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, with ASPECT Studios handling the landscape design.

Each residence is thoughtfully designed to embrace materiality through contemporary fittings and considered textures.

The homes have warm, practical features to accentuate the open and functional living, dining and kitchen areas. Large windows and balconies ensure indoor-outdoor connection and abundant natural light through the apartments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24822 project_image_fid=254332]

&nbsp;

Residents can expect sophisticated quartz benchtops, glazed splashback tiles and Italian-made speckled terrazzo floors in the kitchens.

This all-electric development will feature solar panels, double-glazed and Low-E windows, and abundant green spaces to reduce the heat-island effect.&nbsp;

Pace 3058 also features exclusive amenities like a 25-metre lap pool, luscious rooftop gardens and residents' lounge, 500 bike parking spots, a repair workspace, and 20 EV charging stations.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24822 project_image_fid=254324]

&nbsp;

The development is <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/coburg-vic">nestled just behind Sydney Road</a> and surrounded by wide-open parklands, bike trails, and eclectic restaurants and cafes.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/pace-development-group">Pace's</a> in house construction arm, Pace Building Group, is well underway, with a Q2 2024 completion date slated.

Over 60 per cent of its Pace 3058 has sold.
