A vacant strip of land in Northbridge has been earmarked for an eight-storey office and apartment building.

Skypacts Property Resources has submitted a $10 million plan to build a mixed-use development on 441 William Street.

The 508-square metre lot, currently an unoccupied infill site, sits next to the Perth Mosque and is bound by William Street and Brisbane Place.

According to Skypacts’ application filed with the City of Vincent, the proposed development comprises offices and associated parking from the first to the fourth floor, and nine apartments across the upper levels.

Lateral Planning, on behalf of Skypacts, said the project would be a high-quality development on an underutilised infill site.

“Overall, the proposed development will not detract from the amenity of the area rather, it will significantly enhance it,” the application said. 

“It represents a positive, forward-looking contribution to the locality, by supporting strategic planning goals, and promoting sustainable urban growth.”

RP data shows Skypacts bought the site for about $2.5 million in 2022.

Skypacts Property Resources is owned by Kian Kiong Lee and has a registered address in Nedlands, according to an Australian Securities and Investments Commission document.

About 600 metres away, another vacant Northbridge lot was flagged for development.

A 480-square metre site at 195 Beaufort Street, next to the Ellington Jazz Club, has been vacant for about 20 years.

In May 2024, a development assessment panel approved a $2.4 million proposal to build a four-storey apartment and retail project on the site.

However, the site, with the attached development application approval, was recently listed on the market.
