With the Anstey train station directly bounding the west, the new park on West Street two blocks to the south and Sydney Road to the east, Nightingale Anstey is ideally positioned to support a life lived in social, environmental and financial sustainability.
Designed by Breathe Architecture, this eight-storey multi-residential building is broken up into two communities, each with separate secure entries via a lush vegetated forecourt off the western colonnade.
A simple palette of robust materials punctuated with crevices of mature trees and greenery results in a building, which is reflective of its context and surrounds, yet recessive in its form giving way to long term public green amenity. Anstey Laneway is the southern community.
Consisting of 54 apartments, each featuring a lift slide door from BINQ, Nightingale Anstey is carbon-neutral in operation and achieves an average of 8+ stars NatHERS rating.
