The EBV Story
A village to call home
EBV is one of the inner north’s largest and most exciting urban renewal projects. With over three hectares of well thought out architecturally designed and landscaped space and just six kilometres from Melbourne’s CBD, EBV’s vision is of a self-sustaining village where everything you need is just a short walk away.
EBV will eventually comprise a number of unique mid-size apartment buildings, each with an activated, villagers-only rooftop. These private communal spaces span over 2300sqm and are accessible to every resident (regardless of which EBV address you call home), providing abundant opportunities for community connection.
Designed with liveability, sustainability and community in mind

Heritage
Discover the history behind East Brunswick Village
From the 1840s on, East Brunswick was vital to Melbourne’s growth. Its quarries supplied materials to local brickworks, which in turn supplied bricks to many of the city’s houses, public buildings and landmarks. Rope works, foundries, pottery works and piano makers thrived in East Brunswick – as did a nail manufacturer, Sidney Cooke Fasteners.
Legend tells that one sunny day in 1920, printer’s ink manufacturer Sidney Cooke left his East Brunswick office in search of a sandwich and came back the owner of a nail manufacturing business. He’d seen a for sale sign, gone in, and bought the company, which he renamed Sidney Cooke Fasteners, and successfully ran for more than half a century.
Fast forward to the twenty-first century, and we’re in the midst of one of Melbourne’s largest and most unique urban renewal projects on the very same site. We’re carefully transforming the site into an exciting, community-focused space for sustainable and connected urban living – one where the design aesthetic honours the site’s history and location while offering residents all the comforts and amenities of the present day.
