The Albanese Government is supporting the growth and development of Adelaide, investing $33 million in two new urban projects that will boost tourism and assist local amenity.
The two projects are funded under the Government's urban Precincts and Partnerships Program (uPPP) which provides transformative investment in urban precincts that grow economies and support local communities.
Over $26 million will go towards the construction of a new Family Health and Wellbeing Hub in Elizabeth Vale to support residents of Adelaide's northern suburbs.
The Hub will feature community spaces, education and health services, and short-term residential accommodation for new mothers.
Led by the Women's & Children's Hospital Foundation Inc., the project is a community partnership supported by the City of Playford, Flinders University, and the South Australian Government.
Almost $7 million will go towards a new arts and culture facility in Glenside to revitalise the south Adelaide precinct for visitors and locals alike.
The project will deliver a multi-use cultural facility featuring studios and galleries, a First Nations artist residential studio, educational spaces, a native edible garden and a social enterprise café.
Led by the Adelaide Central School of Art, the project is supported by partners including the Ananguku Arts and Cultural Aboriginal Corporation and the South Australian Government.
The urban Precincts and Partnerships Program focuses on a partnership approach, bringing together governments, businesses and communities to deliver multi-purpose urban precincts that unify places.
