��We are very proud to be leading the transformation of this important site that will be a catalyst for the future shape of Sydney’s inner city. Our vision is to deliver a precinct that will celebrate the authenticity of the neighbourhood whilst also bringing the energy of new people and businesses to the suburb,” Vidor said. “Paying homage to the history of the site and building, while ensuring a blend of retail, residential, hotel and commercial space that feels at one with the street environment was a priority. We set out to revitalise the site and to create a space that locals can be proud of,” director at SJB Architects, Adam Haddow, said. The retail spaces will also house a Coles supermarket and parking for retail customers. Surry Hills Village is due for completion in early 2024.  Albion to revamp historical Craft’d Grounds In Albion, Queensland, the team behind Collingwood Black and The Black Market are set to take over a set of empty industrial spaces and a 100-year-old timber mill for the new precinct Craft’d Grounds.  The area will feature laneways with street art, wholly undercover. Inside, there will be a brewery, craft bottle shop, restaurant, cafe, wine and cocktail bar, street food and farmers markets. “Brisbane just keeps getting better and ventures like this help our local economy rebuild from the pandemic and often become a favourite destination not just for locals, but for residents right across Brisbane,” said Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner. Amazon to launch Australia’s biggest warehouse in 2021 Amazon will finish its first robotics fulfilment centre in Western Sydney this year. The 200,000-square-metre site will be the largest warehouse in Australia, with four levels and will provide job opportunities from IT, HR and robotics specialists to packing staff working with robotic packers. “This will be our fifth fulfilment centre [in the country] and will effectively double our operational footprint in Australia, providing our customers with wider selection and faster delivery,” said Amazon Australia’s director of operations, Craig Fuller. “Utilising advanced technology, the robotics will enhance the efficiency of our operations as well as the safety of our associates, helping to support our Amazonians as they pick, pack and ship the millions of items housed within the FC to customers around the country.” The robots will be automatically delivering items to the staff that needs to be packed and prepared for delivery. The high-tech equipment will help speed up packing times and have more inventory to be stowed per square metre. The new robotics facility will be Amazon’s second in Western Sydney which will be able to hold up to 11 million products.
