Silk Lane - 14 Trafalgar Street, Woolloongabba

Brisbane&rsquo;s legendary cricket ground, The Gabba, will be the global centrepiece of the 2032 Olympic Games and some homeowners are set to have the best seats in the house.

Silk Lane, the&nbsp;Woolloongabba apartment development&nbsp;to be developed by Southlake Group and Sarazin, is set to be built overlooking the iconic stadium.

The ground-breaking precinct, the second of three exciting stages, will boast the city&rsquo;s first and only rooftop &lsquo;Skystand&rsquo;, offering an unobstructed, birds-eye view into The Gabba stadium.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107345 project_image_fid=172024]

The 306 one, two and three-bedroom apartments have been designed by&nbsp;Nettletontribe&nbsp;Architects and start from just $449,000.

The development will feature a rooftop infinity pool with views across Brisbane, and ground-level commercial spaces.

Located at 8-12 Trafalgar Street, Silk will be positioned just 350 metres from the future Cross River Rail station, just one stop to Albert Street.

Over the next decade, a rush of global infrastructure investment is set to transform Brisbane into a new world city.

The Gabba is the jewel in the city&rsquo;s Olympic crown, with the stadium undergoing a $1 billion rebuild increasing capacity to 50,000 spectators.

It will host the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as the track and field events.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107345 project_image_fid=172025]

The 2032 Brisbane Olympics will not only deliver an economic boost to trade and tourism but is set to have a big impact on the local property market, according to PRD Research chief economist, Dr Diaswati Mardiasmo.

Mardiasmo predicted this month that Brisbane&rsquo;s median house price could increase to $1.7 million by 2023, 2.5 times its current median of $674,738.

With major projects including Woolloongabba&rsquo;s new Cross River Rail station, Brisbane Metro and Queen&rsquo;s Wharf completed by 2032, it is no doubt that Silk Lane residents will reap the benefits.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107345 project_image_fid=172023]

Around The Gabba, a new pedestrian plaza will link the stadium to the new transport stations.

&ldquo;For local sports, the promise of new and revitalised Olympic venues is a game-changer, encouraging families and junior athletes into sporting endeavours and creating potential future champions competing at a home Olympics&rdquo;, the project marketing reads.

This landmark sporting and cultural hub will write a new chapter in Woolloongabba&rsquo;s rich story.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107345 project_image_fid=172021]

Residents can surround themselves with grand panoramas of the Brisbane city skyline on your private residents&#39; rooftop with views across the river and a front-row seat to every game at the Gabba.

The building&rsquo;s architectural fa&ccedil;ade draws inspiration from the angular shapes of metal structure incorporated in the neighbouring stadium.

Silk Lane is expected to reach completion in mid-2024.

Inside the two-bedroom Silk Lane apartments in Woolloongabba, home of the 2032 Olympics

An inner-city residential suburb, transport hub, industrial precinct, and world-famous sporting ground, Woolloongabba is many things rolled into one.

It has a long history of occupation and development, but is now poised for new prominence as an Olympic destination in 2032.

And to take advantage of the future infrastructure is Silk Lane, the apartment development that will rise high above The Gabba, the hub of the Olympic Ganes.

Woolloongabba however was not always the melting pot that it is today.

University of Queensland associate professor in history, Geoff Ginn, shares the history of the suburb.

<h2>A Meeting Place</h2>

Before the onset of British colonial development in the 1820s, the Aboriginal people of the Turrbal and Jagara clans knew the place as Woolloon Capemm meaning &lsquo;place of whirling water&rsquo;, a name that reflected the abundant waterholes, swamps and creeks in the area, said associate professor Geoff Ginn.

Ceremonial places included a bora ground on top of Woolloongabba Hill, at the site now occupied by Holy Trinity Church in Hawthorne Street, and two &lsquo;pullen pullen&rsquo; grounds for ceremonial fighting nearby.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107345 project_image_fid=172022]

&ldquo;In 1824, the founding of the Moreton Bay penal settlement heralded the beginning of the European presence in Queensland and the displacement of the First Australians in the area&rdquo;, Ginn continued.

In an attempt to achieve self-sufficiency, convicts in the fledgling settlement cleared and cultivated the south bank of the Brisbane River.

Known as &lsquo;One Mile Swamp&rsquo;, this area had isolated houses and farm dwellings in the 1840s through to the 1850s, when allotments were surveyed and sold.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2021-08-26_at_12.54.37_am.png" rel="gallery-all" title="Woolloongabba Fiveways traffic in 1955"><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="375" src="/s3/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2021-08-26_at_12.54.37_am.png?itok=gP2p_Jns" title="Woolloongabba Fiveways traffic in 1955" width="580" /></a>

<figcaption>Woolloongabba Fiveways traffic in 1955</figcaption>
</figure>

As the European settlement of Brisbane gathered pace in the 1860s-1880s, most of the southerly traffic from Ipswich Road and Logan Road converged at the site, at the intersection with Stanley Street and Main Street through Kangaroo Point to create the famous &lsquo;Gabba Fiveways&rsquo;.

&ldquo;It wasn&rsquo;t until the 1870s that the name of Woolloongabba was officially used.&rdquo;

A tram service drawn by horses was active after 1885, with electric trams after 1897. After 1895, these brought crowds to football and cricket matches at the recreation reserve later named the Brisbane Cricket Ground.

A major railway station and goods yard appeared at the site and the surrounding industrial areas as streets rapidly filled up with workers cottages and small timber &lsquo;Queenslanders&rsquo;.

A few local landmarks from this period included Woolloongabba Post Office, the Princess Theatre and many hotels in prominent positions at road intersections.

&ldquo;There were also churches and other centres associated with distinct immigrant communities such as the Deutscher Turnverein (now German Club) established in the mid-1880s, the nearby Russian Orthodox Church&rdquo;, Ginn said.

<figcaption>International cricket match at the Gabba in 1931</figcaption>

By this time, with vehicles, trams, and trains filling its streets and footpaths crowded with shoppers and workers, Woolloongabba had assumed its modern form.

<h2>Local Amenities</h2>

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107345 project_image_fid=172025]

Now an energetic place of work, transport, leisure and community, Silk Lane residents are offered convenient local amenities that dot the suburb.

The apartments are in close proximity to Queensland University of Technology and Torrens University, as well as secondary schools including Anglican Church Grammar School and St Laurence&rsquo;s College.

Other local amenities include the soon-to-be-completed Cross River Rail station, The Gabba, Gabba Central shopping centre, Deshon Street Park and Brisbane City Indoor Sports centre.
