Docklands is evolving into a hub for innovative architecture, authentic dining, and a vibrant community.
“The location appeals to many,” said Nick Deans, principal of Warren and Mahoney.

Docklands vibrant transformation
Docklands is shaking off old misconceptions, evolving into a vibrant, thriving community with stunning waterfront views and lively urban life.
Lendlease’s developments, such as Victoria Harbour, have genuinely transformed the precinct with new residents, green spaces, cafés, restaurants, and retail options, making it clear that outdated views on Docklands are out of touch with today’s reality.
“Docklands has matured into an important and unique part of Melbourne,” said Mr Deans. “The access to views, sunlight, and public transport are fundamentals that will never change.”
Local small business owner Peter, Co-Founder of Saluministi, said that, especially since the pandemic, Docklands has never felt more like a community.
“Special relationships were built, and a sense of neighbourhood was created.
“With a second store and a full refurb of our existing one, you can see we love it here and envision a long-term relationship full of change and growth,” he explains.
“Once Victoria Harbour is complete, it will rival the beauty of riverside areas like Southbank, and when the sun comes out, it feels as warm and inviting as the Gold Coast.
“What we love most is the balance we get between local residents and corporate workers. We seem to get the best of both worlds. They love our panini, and we love them.”
Investment potential
As Docklands continues to grow, many investors are eyeing the suburb for their next venture, with an 8.3% increase in rental prices for units and a quick 22 days on market before leasing.
Collins Wharf presents a rare opportunity, well-received by the market for its access to views, sunlight, and amenities.
Collins Wharf is reshaping perceptions of the Docklands, linking residents to the heart of Melbourne’s cultural and vibrant CBD via free tram services.
This development underscores the area’s transformation into a lively and desirable part of Melbourne.
