193 Lutwyche Road, Windsor

A two-tower apartment development in <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/windsor-qld">Brisbane's Windsor</a> has been filed by local developer Ronnie Tarabay.

He's submitted plans for two 13-level buildings designed by Ellivo Architects at <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/193-lutwyche-road-windsor">193 Lutwyche Road</a> which will home 212 apartments, 281 resident parking spaces, and 45 visitor spaces.

Tarabay, who runs developer Bekaa Group, is set to keep some of the origins of the site. A two-storey luxury car showroom along the Lutwyche Road frontage will remain.

The 4,213 corner sqm site, next to the Brisbane Opal Museum and opposite Rosemount Hospital, was previously a Denmac car yard. It's currently operating as a car showroom Dutton One.

The site was bought late last year, with approval for two aged care and retirement towers with 177 units.

Tarabay, has submitted a new application for&nbsp;118 one-bed units, more than half the building, 85 two-bedroom apartments, and nine three-bedders.

Crowning one of the building's is a lap pool with day beds, a spa and sauna set privately in landscaping, a barbecue terrace, and an indoor dining room.

Ellivo noted in their Urban Design Report that the scale and form&nbsp;of the site provides the opportunity for two towers.

"The podium and tower are articulated as the buildings respond to their context," the report noted.

"City views are enhanced, privacy is allowed for and solar orientation is considered. The identity of the project is created."

They suggest residents will have access to a large amount of outdoor public amenity and numerous sporting precincts.

One of the towers faces Lutwyche Road, the other facing Lyons Terrace. Both have been designed to have a naturally ventilated corridor, ventilated through a break in the facade.

The Town Planning Report by Place Design Group said the site provides a great opportunity for <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a>, as a growing World City, to advocate housing quality in medium and high-density apartment living in Brisbane’s inner northern ring.

"Furthermore, due to the much-needed housing supply, the proposal will deliver an alternate housing product (of an appropriate scale) <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/windsor-qld">in a location</a> with great access to jobs, services, amenities, public transport, critical care infrastructure, community infrastructure and key transport corridors providing a suitable housing product for key workers in the vicinity," the Report read.

Bekka Group was founded in 2001 and has created a number of residential buildings all across <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a>.
