One of the world's most stunning natural harbours will soon be complemented by a world-class waterfront redevelopment. The City of Albany has entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with the State Government and Landcorp to redevelop the City's foreshore. The project will incorporate a new entertainment centre, an integrated boat harbour, short-stay tourism accommodation, park area themed around the Anzac story, cafes and retail outlets.
The Albany Waterfront project will deliver significant environmental, community and economic benefits, including long-term employment and business opportunities. It will reconnect the community with the coast, linking the town centre with the magnificent setting of Princess Royal Harbour.
More than $72 million of State Government funding has so far been committed to the project, which will stimulate significant private sector investment. Landcorp is managing the project in a partnership arrangement with the Department for Planning and Infrastructure, City of Albany and the Great Southern Development Commission.
