The proposed development is a $10 million high-density residential building that will subsume the site currently occupied by the Melba Conservatorium of music and two neighbouring properties.
Under the proposal, the area currently occupied by the two-storey conservatorium, the conservatorium and two neighbouring terraces will be replaced by a single four-storey building containing 72 apartments and an underground car park for 53 cars.
All existing buildings, plants and gardens on the site will be completely demolished and replaced by the new building.
The building will take up almost all of the available space on the site, with only minimal space left for a tiny 'garden' on the western side.

The western side will directly overshadow neighbouring houses. Balconies on the third and fourth floor will directly overlook neighbouring houses.
An additional fifth-storey plant room level on top of the building will contain air conditioning units for all the building’s apartments and create additional noise for neighbours.
