Thebarton Brewery Site Redevelopment

Nice concept especially the river park......but a park on Port Road? Opposite another large park? Adelaide does not need to build "parks on parks".....that one in Victoria Square next to the Cathedral is just downright strange (in terms of what it is meant to do)

Beautiful concept, even if a bit greenwashed. This would certainly add importance to the Entertainment Centre tram stop and overall could quite nicely complement Bowden.

I appreciate that it demonstrates the importance of revitalising the river, which I believe should be a key outcome for this project. Hopefully it influences Renewal SA when it comes to master planning.

There's already a park in that location though, the 'vision' posted just shows an expansion of that park and making it more accessible.
Basically what a few of us said on previous pages about what should happen on the river front there, and better connecting it with Bonython Park.

How can this happen please and thank you

That's Linear Park, and that section currently is about the worst part of the whole trail from the North East down to the coast. It totally makes sense to do it up as part of developing this site.

There's already a pedestrian underpass under Hindmarsh Bridge on the north side. They could build another one on the south side to link up with the new park, there's plenty of room under the bridge.

Oh, the irony

The draft master plan for the former West End Brewery site includes the potential for 6000sq m of green space, as part of an expanded River Torrens Linear Trail.

The billion-dollar development aims to create a new benchmark for inner city living and offer a range of medium-to-high density properties boasting parklands, river or city views.

The additional green space and detail on how the project will pay homage to the site’s history is included in the draft plan, now out for public consultation.

The state government last year announced 1000 new homes would be built on the 8.4ha site, at Thebarton, with at least 20 per cent affordable housing.

Housing and Urban Development Minister Nick Champion said the aim was for a “world-class precinct that makes the most of its proximity to the city, parklands and the River Torrens”.

“Improving and increasing the public space along the Linear Trail and the parklands will help to activate both areas,” Mr Champion said.

“I encourage South Australians to take a look at the groundbreaking concepts in the plan help guide the final design.”

The draft plan includes a proposed “mobility hub” which would offer locals services, such as share cars, scooters and e-bike charging.

It also proposes celebrating the site’s history and heritage with the adaptive reuse of the Walkerville Brewhouse and activating the area around the Thebarton Cottage foundations.


Renewal SA has worked with global design firm Arup, Breathe Architecture and landscape designers TLC to develop the draft plan, with a final concept expected later this year following consultation.

The plan was developed following community feedback during last year’s Code Amendment process, which highlighted people’s ideas and aspirations for the site.

The government bought the land from Lion Beer Wine & Spirits Pty Ltd (Lion) for $61.5m, after the brewery closed in 2021, following 135 years of operation.

Two community drop-in session on the draft plan are being held tomorrow, from 11am-2pm, and on Thursday, from 4-7pm, at the Education Development Centre, Hindmarsh.

Very much an unsolicited vision, but Architectus have done a concept for Thebarton (brewery site, but also extending to South Rd along the river, and down Port Rd to the Coke factory) as part of their Design Charrette.

This is the kind of vision we need in ADL atm. This needs to happen. Shame it’s nothing more than just a vision

[abc]

a lot of buildings violating the suburban height restrictions in that vision

this reminds me of the kind of developments that are happening in Moscow recently

meanwhile the reality will probably look more like Mawson Lakes
