Munro development – narrm ngarrgu Library and Family Services
The Munro development is a vital part of the $250m Queen Victoria Market Renewal. Backed by sustainability and user experience design values, the 11-level tower hosts the City of Melbourne’s new narrm ngarrgu Library and family services with a dedicated children's library, creative makerspace, podcast and audio recording studios, affordable housing, a landscaped terrace, an event auditorium, it's home to the Lord Mayor Charitable Foundation Hub and and fine grain retail on the ground.
Updating the Queen Vic precinct with active laneways and modern community amenity gifts a new public heart to a much-loved Melbourne treasure. The Munro site is expected to deliver an estimated $70M public benefit, in one of Australia’s most sustainable mixed-use developments.
