More open space for Brighton?

Have your say on the future use of 7 Well Street in Brighton.

Right now, 7 Well Street is a vacant Council-owned 700 square metre site just a short stroll from the Church Street shopping precinct.

As for what it could be in the future… that's what we want to hear from you.

This is an opportunity to share your ideas on how this rare vacant lot in the heart of Brighton could be transformed into a something that could benefit the local community and the many visitors who go to Church Street to shop, dine and socialise.

The project will tie in with Bayside's 2050 Community Vision to ensure the project reflects the priorities and aspirations for Bayside in the future.

What will its future be?

We're inviting local residents and businesses, and visitors to the area to help inform Council's next steps on the future of 7 Well Street.

Community feedback will help us understand how best to activate this space - whether that's new public open space, more car parking spaces or other needed community infrastructure.

This is also an opportunity to highlight any issues to ensure we can consider any challenges before we progress the project.

Next steps

Ideas we collect from the community will be used along with technical advice on the suitability of site for the proposal that is presented to Councillors. Council will make an informed decision on the next steps in December 2021.

Have your say

Feedback closes 7 November 2021

Council is currently investigating a suspected server issue with Have Your Say that disrupted an email alert to project subscribers earlier today. Once the issue is resolved we will send another email out to Have Your Say members.
