  • Apartments / use 2 units Industrial warehouse units (small-bay / multi-unit industrial, 2 tenancies with mezzanine offices) accretiveMarcus Reid: a tidy modern small-bay industrial unit replacing a tired mechanic's yard in the heart of an established Northgate industrial pocket — a quiet plus for the precinct, and effectively invisible to the nearest homes 200m away across Kedron Brook.
  • Apartments / use Concrete batching plant neutralAn existing concrete batching plant that has operated since 1990 is being internally reshuffled — no new use, no expanded footprint, so the dial on surrounding property barely moves.
  • Apartments / use Social housing neutralMarcus Reid: this is a paperwork extension, not a fresh approval, and the absence of underlying scope means there is nothing here to move the dial on neighbouring property either way.
  • Apartments / use 139 m² Warehouse neutralA retrospective rubber-stamp of an internal mezzanine inside one small industrial unit — nothing here moves the dial for surrounding property either way.
  • Apartments / use 2 units Warehouse accretiveA textbook industrial infill: two tired ex-residential lots in a General Industry A pocket get cleared for a compliant modern warehouse, which is exactly what this zone is meant to deliver and a net tidy-up for the street.

Flood

Does Northgate flood? It's a street-by-street question.

A suburb-wide flood figure hides the only answer that matters: whether the specific lot you are looking at sits inside a mapped overlay.

Where we're straight with you
We hold the parcel-level flood overlay here.

Flood overlays for Brisbane are in our map. The per-lot answer (in or out of the overlay) is on the address report, not a suburb average.
