Empire and Mutual Apartments

Project Overview
Bound by Flinders Street and the vibrant Degraves Street, the full refurbishment of the Mutual Store Building saw the addition of two extra floors to create a combination of one two and three bedroom apartments along with leasable commercial outlets at street level.

The redevelopment of the adjacent historic Empire Stores building on Flinders Street involved the removal of the rear section of the building and the construction of 14 new floors. The project comprises 306 studio, one and two bedroom student apartments as well as communal facilities including lounge, laundry and shared terraces. Terraces are located behind the original facade and provide residents with an opportunity to experience Melbourne from a new perspective. The development also includes ground floor tenancies and basement car park.
