Darebin City CouncilBusiness Development & Employment StrategyBackground & Issues Research NIEIR June
Key Features - Darebin • The emphasis is now on high tech manufacturing and research and technology. However these businesses are struggling against high interest rates and the high exchange rate. • Transport, logistics and warehousing is growing, smaller distribution companies are taking advantage of location. • Good access to CBD, so gentrification continues and more professionals are now living in Darebin. These professional resources are not fully utilised within Darebin. • Pockets of relatively low cost housing support a declining proportion of low-income earners. • Highest population of indigenous people in Melbourne’s North. • Has stopped losing jobs and the process of restructuring appears to be in balance. • Northcote High Street is attracting innovative knowledge-based retail and services which cannot afford high rents. Improved amenity is attracting larger numbers of people to precinct to shop and eat.
Key Features - Darebin • Office development plans include the $250 million Australian Horizon development and Bell City $120 million revamp which includes office space, conference facilities and accommodation. • Retail strips are improving, and becoming cosmopolitan and high quality. Some strips are bargain based with few vacant shops. Retail is likely to be weak for some years as households give priority to reducing debt. • Well served with good diversity of retail, cafes and restaurants. Retail ranges from Northland Shopping Centre to boutique style shops in High street Northcote. • Well located to airport, distribution firms get first drop off and last pick up of the day because of proximity to airport. • Productive and ethnic diversity.
