Pradella’s Riverside West End masterplan in review

With the completion of Wave Residences and steady progress on Cascade Residences, Pradella’s Riverside West End masterplan is nearing its final chapter. Over more than a decade, this $1.5 billion transformation has redefined riverside living in Brisbane, turning a once industrial pocket of West End into one of the city’s most sought-after lifestyle destinations.
A journey of transformation
Pradella’s journey began with Flow West End, followed by Waters Edge, a premium riverfront address that set a new standard for design and liveability. Comprising of the Reach and Drift towers, the development offered sweeping views of the Brisbane River and generous private amenities, introducing a level of residential luxury rarely seen at the time.
Soon after, Gardens brought a sense of community and greenery to the precinct. Completed in 2016, its four buildings – View, Rise, Arbor and Parc – were designed around lush, landscaped spaces that reflected West End’s subtropical charm.
Breeze, completed in 2018, continued this evolution. With its contemporary architecture, rooftop retreat, and sweeping city and river views, it captured the energy of a changing West End.
Then came Montague Markets, the vibrant retail and residential hub that became the social heart of the community. Opened in 2020 and anchored by a full-line Woolworths, the precinct is now home to cafes, health services and specialty stores that have brought convenience right to residents’ doors.
Enclave followed in 2022, delivering sophisticated apartments with generous layouts and resort-style amenities. Positioned as an urban retreat within the Riverside West End masterplan, Enclave reflected Pradella’s continued focus on premium design and enduring quality.
The final chapter is ending
The masterplan has reached its pinnacle with The Lanes. The first tower, Wave Residences, has welcomed its first residents, while construction continues at Cascade Residences. Designed for those who value impeccable craftsmanship and modern sophistication, The Lanes embodies the very best of riverside living.
The striking sculptural design, complete with luxury resident amenity, delivers an elevated lifestyle experience surrounded by the vibrancy of West End.
A legacy of vision and craftsmanship
From its inception, Riverside West End was inspired by its unique location within the well-connected West End peninsula. Never wavering from their vision, Pradella set out to create the very best, knowing this once-in-a-generation project would unfold across two generations.
As Director Kim Pradella explains, “It’s been a privilege to control the transformative reshaping of this beautiful precinct.”
True to that spirit, The Lanes stands as the crown jewel of the Riverside West End masterplan – where architecture marks the beginning of a better lifestyle, and where life truly takes centre stage.
