Location & Map
1 Freshwater Place is perfectly positioned on the banks of the Yarra River between the Crown Entertainment Complex and Southgate Arts & Leisure precinct on Southbank Promenade. It lies in the heart of the city’s entertainment, cultural and sporting centre.
This premier location is a few minutes’ walk away from Melbourne’s central business district, Flinders Street Station, the Arts Centre and the city’s premier attractions.
The Crown Entertainment Complex comprises specialty shops and boutiques, bars, cafés and restaurants, cinemas, live shows, music venues and casino under the one roof amidst towering ceilings and impressive staircases and water features. In the evenings a 90-minute light show takes place in the atrium, while on special occasions, external chimney stacks along the boardwalk shoot bursts of flames into the air, adding a touch of magic to the Melbourne cityscape.
Also within short walking distance are several of Melbourne’s premier landmarks:
- Federation Square
- National Gallery of Victoria
- Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre
- Melbourne Park Tennis Centre
- Royal Botanic Gardens
- Melbourne Aquarium
1 Freshwater also offers easy access to an extensive freeway network, public transport interchanges, Melbourne’s beaches, and iconic, cosmopolitan suburbs like St Kilda, South Yarra and Carlton.
