Due to be fully completed in August this year, the 456-room Avani Central Melbourne Residences further strengthens the group’s footprint in Australia, having launched its first property, Avani Broadbeach Gold Coast Residences, last December. The 55-storey building will draw inspiration from the brands distinct, contemporary design. Strategically located in the northern part of Melbourne’s central business district (CBD), Avani Central Melbourne Residences will be situated close to the Melbourne Central railway station and a short distance away from the Queen Victoria Markets.
