5 wonderful days in the Docklands

View from 80 Lorimer Street

It was winter in Melbourne when I arrived on the 7th June after a stopover at Darwin. It was not until I step into my business partner’s apartment at 80 Lorimer Street that I realized how beautiful the views over Victoria Harbour can be. It’s stunning, particularly with the sun glazing down over the chilly wind in winter Melbourne, voted as one of the most liveable cities in the world.

Nested in Lorimer St are five towers built by one of Australia’s biggest developer. You could see the standard of the finishing once you walked into the apartment. Nicely laid quality carpets, stone benchtops, exclusive vanities used in all the toilets/bathrooms and not forgetting the huge 42′ LCD TV in the living room for pure entertainment. It’s city living at its best!

It just cannot get any better, being so close to the CBD; in fact just 2 minutes away and close to water.

There is a freeway running parallel to Lorimer St but mate, I could hardly hear anything when the windows are closed. Windows are double-glazed and strict building standards says it all.

To put it simply, I wouldn’t mind going back there in September again…oh..how I missed the excellent weather.
