Collingwood is edgy, creative, and close to everything. With vibrant street art, indie music venues, and a buzzing food scene, it attracts students wanting an urban, culture-rich lifestyle.
Located close to RMIT and University of Melbourne, it’s easy to get to campus. Students appreciate the modern apartments and warehouse conversions unique to the area.
Eclectic, artistic, stimulating
5 minutes tram to CBD
Close to Australian Catholic University and RMIT
Well within walking distance of ACU and the City, public transport is primarily by tram with frequent bus services also running along Victoria Parade. Our apartments at 45 Victoria Parade are perfectly positioned to take advantage of all the area has to offer.
From humble, working-class origins, Collingwood is now recognised as the home of artistic design and innovation. Its many art galleries showcase some of Melbourne’s brightest new talents and respected established artists. Explore side lanes and alleys and there’s plenty of street art with a more edgy attitude!
Make your way along Smith Street, Gertrude and Brunswick Streets to find a phenomenal range of low to high end restaurants, terrific bars and cafes and pubs like the Robbie Burns Hotel (sensational Spanish food and sangria!).
Further afield are countless clearance and outlet stores like Nike, Bendon, Adidas, Kathmandu and Bonds while you’ll also pick up a bargain at second hand shops like Smith Street Bazaar and Vintage Garage and vintage furniture at Vintage Stash and Used Pty Ltd..
