Paving the way for 2200 apartments to be built on the site of the Preston Market would pose an existential threat to stallholders, Darebin City Council officers have warned in a draft submission to the Victorian Planning Authority.
The authority released proposed rules for the 5.1-hectare site in May that would allow up to 20 storeys of apartments but ensure a fresh food market would remain regardless of any future development.

Analysis by Darebin Council has found the plans would make the site more dense than Fishermans Bend, Australia’s largest urban renewal precinct, which will have an average of 323 people per hectare once 80,000 people move into the district by 2050.
