ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Carlton Recreation Ground has served as the home of the Carlton Football Club where VFL and AFL home and away games were played on a weekly basis for most of last century. It continues to be the home of the Carlton Football Club with a range of gameday, training facilities and complementary sports, training, recreation, cultural and education uses.
The project included the partial redevelopment of the ground to provide for elite training facilities, new administration areas, new game day and broadcast facilities, and to provide a home for the AFLW.
Contour was engaged to prepare the planning strategy associated with the delivery of the project, which included the preparation of a Planning Scheme Amendment, amendments to the Carlton (Recreation Ground) Land Act 1966 and liaison with numerous local and state government departments.
