WHAT IS AND ISN’T HAPPENING IN BRUNSWICK? Gentrification has gripped many of Australia’s suburbs, including Brunswick. The influx of major housing developments has evolved the suburb into a hotspot for cafes, arts, live music and shopping; all great things for the incoming middle-class residents, and the densification of our inner-city suburbs to avoid urban sprawl.

Despite this, in this city of 25,000+ residents, the median house price has raised over $300,000 in the last 9 years. We want to know, what is being done for the working class residents of Brunswick who cannot afford to live in new luxe apartments but want to maintain and even strengthen their community bonds?

Moreland City Council’s Brunswick Structure Plan plays an important role in demonstrating a vision for Brunswick’s future urban environment and communities. Key development and activity centres become places for pedestrians to meet, share and thrive within the city.

On the other hand, Moreland City Council’s Urban Forest Strategy (2017-2027) suggests that “approximately 85% of Moreland’s streetscape are [currently] without any natural shade”. As studies show, increasing urban greenery can have tremendous social impact for the city and its residents and mitigate many environmental issues related to climate change.

This project reflects on council’s efforts to prepare Brunswick for the future but, highlights the lack of infrastructure which exists to support those unable to enter the housing market due to soaring housing costs. Furthermore, it proposes both urban and architectural solutions which re-appropriate the gentrification of Brunswick with a focus on strengthening new and bolstering existing communities and supporting ecological and urban green infrastructure.
