Brisbane's Four Major Apartment Projects Transform Housing and Neighbourhoods
Developments in Woolloongabba, Yeerongpilly, Kangaroo Point and Newstead bring new apartment supply that directly affects local access to housing and daily surroundings.
How we reported this
A 53- and 36-storey mixed-use project called The Stanley is planned for Woolloongabba to deliver 447 apartments and a public plaza by 2026.
These projects arrive as Brisbane prepares infrastructure ahead of the 2032 Olympic Games. Residents in inner-south suburbs now face decisions about whether new units fit their budgets or alter street-level activity near existing homes.
Named sites and their scale
Yeerongpilly Green is under way in south Brisbane as a $70 million multi-stage urban village of boutique apartments and townhomes. The Stanley site sits in Woolloongabba. A separate 22-storey proposal for Kangaroo Point opposite the Gabba seeks to add 106 apartments. Frasers plans an updated Newstead project on a 3,016 square metre site with roughly 70 apartments across two 16-storey buildings.
Each location sits within established residential pockets where new density can change parking demand, foot traffic and views from nearby dwellings.
Price points and housing mix
Yeerongpilly Green lists one-bedroom apartments from $460,000 and townhomes up to $1.275 million. The Kangaroo Point proposal includes 21 percent affordable housing. The Stanley development is scheduled to open spaces ahead of the 2032 Games, while Frasers intends its Newstead launch for 2026.
These figures give concrete benchmarks for households comparing purchase or rental costs against current local stock. The presence of affordable units in one scheme offers one measurable option within the overall pipeline.
