District Living Docklands
Stage One comprises 626 apartments and is set to commence construction in Q4 2025 following the appointment of Kapitol as builder. District Living will ultimately provide 900+ apartments across two stages, with a strong focus on families through a mix of studios, one‑, two‑ and three‑bedroom residences, plus a unique selection of Soho‑style dual‑level apartments.

Delivery approach
“Australia’s rising demand for rental housing highlights the importance of building with quality and longevity in mind. District Living will deliver much‑needed apartment stock to the market and serve the city for decades to come. We’re applying the same digital innovation that underpins all our major projects, such as advanced design coordination, 4D sequencing, and prefabrication. These methods improve precision and efficiency, providing better housing outcomes for residents.”
