Time & Place’s The Queensbridge Building (TQB) on Track For Completion, Underpinning Confidence Amidst Market Uncertainty

In the wake of recent turbulence in the off-the-plan apartment market, The Queensbridge Building (TQB) delivered by joint-venture partners Time & Place, MaxCap Group, and Hickory – stands out as a beacon of confidence, progress, and certainty. Despite other large-scale projects facing significant delays and uncertainty, construction of TQB is moving full steam ahead, with topping out scheduled for May 2025 and completion of the residential component firmly on track for Q4 2025.

In a climate where buyers are more cautious than ever, TQB presents a rare opportunity to purchase in Southbank, as the only large-scale residential build-to-sell apartment project in the area set for completion in 2025.

Designed by Flack Studio, named Vogue Living’s 2024 ‘Creative of the Year,’ The Queensbridge Building’s interiors embody a refined yet effortlessly liveable aesthetic.

Every residence is meticulously crafted using timber floorboards to add warmth and texture, complemented by premium Miele appliances that elevate everyday living and are designed for long-lasting use. Integrating study spaces and expansive window frames to spotlight breathtaking city views, every residence is immersed in natural light creating a sense of openness and leveraging the panoramic views at every corner.

Flack Studio’s signature approach – rich in detail, materiality, and timeless sophistication – ensures that every home within The Queensbridge Building is both a sanctuary and a statement of design excellence.

With limited supply, strong demand, and a strong amenity offering including coworking spaces, world-class health and wellness facilities, and more – TQB continues to attract buyers with Time & Place transacting 41 sales worth $35 million in the last quarter alone, culminating in the building achieving 75% of total sales.

Reaffirming the strength of TQB’s position in the market, Time & Place Founder and Director Tim Price said, “The Queensbridge Building is on track to meet all targets and its strong sales to date underpins its standing as a landmark address in Southbank that’s connected to Melbourne’s arts and culture precinct.

“With the convenience of immediate access to the CBD plus abundant transport options, coupled with the tower’s nature-infused design that incorporates plants and foliage throughout to promote holistic health and wellness – the strong demand for The Queensbridge Building is a testament to the confidence in this project and its ability to withstand market variables.”

As construction advances, buyers can now experience a fully furnished prototype apartment, allowing them to walk through and experience firsthand the high-quality finishes, design layouts, and offering at The Queensbridge Building.

Michael Argyrou, Group CEO of Hickory Group, the tier-one national builder leading construction of The Queensbridge Building, spoke to the project’s momentum by saying, “We are nearing a major milestone with topping out set for May 2025, one of our last big milestones before the residents start to move in late 2025. As a key addition to Melbourne’s skyline, The Queensbridge Building is not only well underway and advancing full steam ahead, but will soon standout as a new exemplary residential, cultural, and lifestyle precinct in Melbourne.”

Backed by an expert team comprising Time & Place as developer, MaxCap Group as financier, Hickory as builder, Fraser & Partners as architects, and Flack Studio as interior designers, The Queensbridge Building is poised to leverage the expertise of each collaborator to ensure a high-quality landmark tower delivered with confidence.

Between Time & Place and Hickory, the developer builder duo has established a strong track record of partnering to deliver high-quality projects on time and to the highest standard, with five major developments completed nearing $2 billion in total value over the past seven years alone. This includes the award-winning Collins House in Melbourne, the highly acclaimed Ace Hotel in Sydney, and the recently completed boutique commercial precinct, Bourke and Bowden in Alexandria, Sydney.

This proven expertise and commitment to excellence reinforce confidence that The Queensbridge Building will follow suit, emerging as a landmark addition to Melbourne’s skyline.
