Neighbourhood
G Line’s six neighbourhoods offer a contrast of experiences, each with its own identity. Designed to enrich and enliven, the neighbourhoods are shaped around the city’s needs today, with room to grow into tomorrow’s. Residential, business, sport and culture, education and healthcare, hospitality and public space all converge along a single spine.
Jolimont Fields Room to arrive. Room to wander.
Jolimont Fields Room to arrive. Room to wander.
Jolimont Fields is the lung of G Line — the moment the postcode opens up and the city releases its grip. Lawn and community sport take over from built form, with the MCG in view across the fields. Of the precinct’s neighbourhoods, it is the easiest to reach and the one least dominated by stadium-scale sport. It connects to the Greenline, which runs along the northern bank of the Birrarung, and serves as the daily green gateway into everything that follows.
Olympic Plaza A century of sport. An open invitation.
Olympic Plaza A century of sport. An open invitation.
The civic and ceremonial centre of G Line, and the most deliberate statement about what it stands for. On event day, Olympic Plaza is the arrival point for a hundred thousand people. The rest of the time, it is open to anyone. It absorbs the Grand Final activation currently displaced into Yarra Park and gives the Australian Open its first proper northern entry. Sports administration moves into purpose-built facilities for the first time. Visit Victoria’s state headquarters and a dedicated sports medicine facility sit alongside a five-star hotel built for match day and every day after.
Yarra Park Residences A quiet address with extraordinary neighbours.
Yarra Park Residences A quiet address with extraordinary neighbours.
G Line’s quiet address, set apart from event-day programming. A leafy, residential neighbourhood of distinct domestic towers, Yarra Park Residences takes its character from the park’s established canopy and the café outlooks along its edge. Residents begin and end their day here, and visitors slow down to find their own version of the neighbourhood and join in its daily routines.
Richmond Circus Made here. Sold here. Lived here.
Richmond Circus Made here. Sold here. Lived here.
The hardest-working neighbourhood of G Line. Trains, trams and buses run beneath high-end retail, with mixed-use towers above for office, hospitality and residential use. It carries the precinct’s economic momentum between the peaks of events. Dense, purposeful, and layered, it’s a neighbourhood designed for constant movement.
The Village An authentic part of Richmond.
The Village An authentic part of Richmond.
Laneways, a corner pub, and bars and restaurants that have taken decades to earn their character sit alongside a vertical education precinct and a gallery that anchors the neighbourhood’s creative core. After the final siren, The Village is where people who know where to go end up. Authentic by accumulation, not design, it gives the rest of G Line its credibility.
