The Lanes “one to watch” as Brisbane unveils its next wave of city-shaping projects

Brisbane’s next phase of growth is being shaped by a wave of projects that aim to do more than add to the skyline. From major civic infrastructure to landmark mixed-use precincts, the city is entering a period of transformation that will define how people live, work and move for decades to come.
InDaily Queensland has highlighted the most anticipated developments set to reshape Brisbane’s landscape. Alongside city-shaping projects such as Queen’s Wharf, the Gabba redevelopment and Waterfront Brisbane, The Lanes was named as one of the residential developments to watch.
The inclusion positions The Lanes within a broader conversation about how Brisbane is evolving, and what thoughtful urban development looks like in a rapidly growing city. Rather than focusing solely on scale, the article highlights projects that prioritise design quality, longevity and integration with their surrounding neighbourhoods.
Located in West End’s established Montague Markets precinct, The Lanes represents the final residential chapter of a carefully planned riverside community. Its recognition reflects a growing expectation that new developments contribute meaningfully to the city’s fabric, balancing density with liveability and long-term relevance.
For Pradella, the acknowledgement aligns with a development philosophy shaped over decades.
Lee-Anne Kielar, Sales and Marketing Director, said building with longevity is always at the forefront of any Pradella development.
“Pradella has been building in Brisbane for more than 60 years, and our approach has consistently been about creating enduring developments that stand the test of time,” she says.
“The Lanes and the broader Riverside West End Masterplan reflect that commitment. It has been designed to respond not just to today’s market, but to Brisbane’s future needs as the city continues to grow and change.”
As Brisbane looks ahead to the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, projects like The Lanes are increasingly viewed as part of a larger urban narrative. Their success will be measured not only by delivery, but by how well they continue to serve residents and communities long after construction is complete.
