The Rundle Mall Masterplan sets in place a strong framework to guide the future direction and delivery of projects and investment for the Rundle Mall precinct. It repositions Rundle Mall as the primary retail precinct in Adelaide through strategies that transform it into a unique, vibrant and attractive civic place in the heart of Adelaide city.
Village Well with Conner Holmes and FJMT Architects were engaged by Adelaide City Council and the Rundle Mall Management Authority to create a Master Plan for the Rundle Mall Retail Precinct, once the primary retail precinct in Adelaide’s CBD.
Village Well facilitated the development of a community vision for Rundle Mall. Intensive engagement with relevant stakeholders, including traders, community, council and land-owners, provided valuable insights and ideas that informed the development of a compelling shared vision and a suite of placemaking strategies for inclusion in the Masterplan. Village Well also provided ongoing strategy advice to the project design team and clients throughout to the development of the Masterplan.
The Rundle Mall Masterplan has subsequently received unanimous support from Adelaide City Council, helping to secure $30 million in funding towards implementing the first stages of development. Works commenced in 2013.
