Melbourne’s Southbank neighborhood: Sparkling and convenient

Located just one kilometer south of Melbourne’s CBD and the Yarra River, Southbank was once a gritty industrial area that has been transformed into a sparkling and thoroughly modern high-rise residential and office district. In fact, the area is fast becoming an increasingly popular alternative office district with well known corporate names such as PricewaterhouseCoopers, Fujitsu, and Foster's Group having relocated to the area. In addition, the area now boosts an arts precinct, the Crown Casino and Entertainment Complex and the Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre which is located in the newer South Wharf area on the western edge of the district. Furthermore, the area is easily accessible via Melbourne’s famous tram network.

For short or long-term business travelers and expatriates looking for accommodations, the Southbank vicinity offers a number of options that include studio apartments, 1-bedroom apartments and 2-bedroom apartments. In addition, for business travelers and expatriates coming to Melbourne to set up an office, Regus located on the 28th floor at the 303 Collins St. complex offers fully furnished and equipped offices with spectacular views of the city and convenient access to all of the banks, restaurants, and shopping centres that are located in the area.

So if you are looking for a centrally located and thoroughly modern Melbourne neighborhood to work, play or call home, then look no further than Southbank.
