The VicRoads tower in Kew, Victoria, is set to be demolished within days, according to reports. Both outlets say the decision follows an eleventh-hour change in direction by the state government, which previously considered a plan to retrofit the 1960s-era structure and convert it into apartments. After that proposed transformation was abandoned, preparations proceed for demolition at the site. The articles indicate that demolition work will begin shortly, ending the retrofitting proposal. The reports do not provide additional details on the reasons for the reversal, the specific demolition timeline, or what will replace the building. However, they consistently state that the building’s future shifts from redevelopment into housing to removal through bulldozing, with demolition scheduled to commence in the coming days. The overall account in both sources centers on the government’s withdrawal from the apartment conversion plan and the rapid move toward demolition.
