150 Inkerman Street (Inkerman Heights), St Kilda

Throughout this project we will be listening to and working with high-rise renters and communities. 

Renters and communities will have an opportunity to inform and provide feedback on the designs for new homes, neighbourhoods and more. 

Yes. Our renters and our communities are our main priority throughout this project and we’ve been listening to and working with renters to develop Our Communities: Our Values – a set of values that will guide how we communicate and engage with renters throughout the high-rise redevelopment. 

Our first step is to ensure all renters have good information and understand the support available to them. 

Our dedicated housing team will gather renter and community feedback to help shape plans for each location. We will keep everyone informed with regular updates and opportunities to input, at every stage of the project. 

This project will gradually retire and replace Melbourne’s 44 older high-rise public housing towers, built between the 1950s and 70s, by 2051. 

Each redevelopment will take 6 to 8 years to complete. 

Renters living at 150 Inkerman Street are not currently required to relocate.  

There are no further relocations planned before July 2026.  

There will be no change to renters rights or security of tenure during their relocation. 

All social housing renters are protected under the Residential Tenancies Act 1997.
