Once a street-level carpark, the space has been transformed into a multi-functional parkland, integrating a multilevel underground carpark that has increased parking space by 20 per cent! Meanwhile, the surrounding streetscapes have been restructured into a pedestrian friendly environment linking the thriving shopping precincts of Chapel Street and Greville Street.

Lyons Architecture, Aspect Studios and our Specialist lighting team paid close attention to the required lighting levels as set with the stakeholders, while allowing the art installation to maintain pride of place.

Prahran Square is the biggest single infrastructure spend in Stonington City Council’s history.
