A bold plan to build Brisbane’s first “townhouse in the sky” development will test the city's appetite for a new style of split-level living.

Sydney-based developer Pyco Group has won approval for its Nouveau apartment building on Anstey Street at Albion, featuring arched terraces and a brick foundation reflecting the suburb's industrial heritage.?

Realm Projects managing director Shane Foley, the project marketer for the development, says the townhouse in the sky concept is the first of its kind in Brisbane.?

“This hasn’t been done before in Brisbane, it’s uniquely designed for this site,” Foley says.?

“It’s taken that traditional townhouse concept and put it in an apartment building.”

Pyco Group director Lachlan Cottee says the 42 two-storey sky homes would leverage the hilltop position in the burgeoning area to capture views across the city’s skyline.?

Cottee says Pyco Group beefed up the size of the development after managing to acquire the four neighbouring lots over 18 months to create the eight-storey tower.
