以两座高楼(13座和8座高45米高的公寓塔)取代纽卡斯尔旧的10号频道大楼的提议引发了辩论。 A proposal to replace Newcastle’s old Channel 10 building with two high-rise apartment towers—13 and 8 storeys, up to 45 meters tall—has ignited debate. 这项由Vivacity主导的项目是新南威尔士州住房管理局的住房目标的一部分,该项目将在艺术画廊和战争纪念馆附近的历史意义重大地点建立113套公寓,零售空间和公共设施. The Vivacity-led project, part of NSW’s housing targets under the Housing Delivery Authority, would create 113 apartments, retail space, and public amenities on a historically significant site near the Art Gallery and war memorials. 批评者警告发展超过14米的高度极限, 冒着遮盖、交通和伤害该地区文化特性的风险。 Critics warn the development exceeds the 14-meter height limit, risking overshadowing, traffic, and harm to the area’s cultural character. 支持者认为,这将促进连通性,创造多达900个建筑就业岗位,并支持可持续城市增长。 Proponents argue it would boost connectivity, generate up to 900 construction jobs, and support sustainable urban growth. 环境评估没有发现任何污染,而矿场的沉降风险将通过加注管理。 Environmental assessments found no contamination, and mine subsidence risks would be managed via grouting. 该项目价值超过1.14亿美元,现正在公开展出,预计将于2027年获得批准,并可能于2028年开始施工。 The project, valued at over $114 million, is under public exhibition, with approval expected by 2027 and construction possibly starting in 2028.
