Escala
A sustainable residential community designed to let nature in
Merri
On the banks of Merri Creek, this residential precinct is bordered by Australian bushland, only a short stroll away from Westgarth. Conceptualised to complement the natural beauty of the creek, the homes are designed for people to connect with nature and be part of a lively inner-city community.
Comprising 99 social housing dwellings alongside 151 private homes with privacy created by extensive landscaping, the precinct offers a pedestrianised ground plane that encourages community integration and fosters connections between locals and residents of the new Merri Creek neighbourhood.
