Creating Communities: Manhattan on the Park, 240 Bunda St Canberra
As part of APGs Creating Communities video series, Architect Peter Russell from May + Russell Architects takes you on a journey of the vision and design of Manhattan on the Park in Canberra’s CBD.
This $190 million project involved demolition of an existing 14,000 sqm commercial office building and construction of a new 16 level residential tower of 330 apartments – creating a lifestyle for its residences.
Located just one block from the retail and commercial heart of the CBD, but with the peaceful and beautiful Glebe Park and Lake Burley Griffin on their doorstep, residents have the best of both worlds.
The design concept is centred on exploiting the northeast orientation of the site and providing a majority of homes with views across Glebe Park to Mount Ainslie. This was achieved by carving a central concave form out of the larger city block.
Manhattan on the Park also revitalised the Glebe Park precinct by bringing retail and activity to the area.
In 2014 it won the API Property Development Award and MBA Apartment and Units four storeys and Above award.

[4K] Walking along Kings Avenue, Canberra ACT - Australia Tourism
Taking a nice walk along Kings Avenue in Canberra, ACT. Beautiful weather and fresh air in Australia's capital.
Kings Avenue is a road in Canberra which goes between New Parliament House (35.307°S 149.127°E), across Lake Burley Griffin at the Kings Avenue Bridge (35.302°S 149.141°E), to Russell near the Australian-American Monument. (35.298°S 149.151°E).
Route:
It begins at State Circle around Capital Hill and forms the border between the suburbs of Parkes and Barton. It passes the National Archives of Australia, Robert Garran offices, Edmund Barton Building, Australian Centre for Christianity and Culture, Bowen Place and Kings Park. It ends at the intersection with Russell Drive.
Significant roads off it include: National Circuit; King George Terrace and King Edward Terrace within the Parliamentary Triangle; and, to the north of the Lake, Parkes Way, the major thoroughfare from the Canberra airport to the city.
The road was originally named Federal Avenue by the architect of Canberra, Walter Burley Griffin. Principal roads in Canberra are laid out in a geometrical pattern when viewed on a map. One of the predominant features forming this geometry is Capital Hill with major roads (Avenues) emanating radially from it. Two of these roads form the Parliamentary Triangle incorporating bridges crossing Lake Burley Griffin. Walter Burley Griffin wanted to name these major avenues with grand names reflecting the reason for the creation of the city with the names Commonwealth Avenue and Federal Avenue. The government had different ideas; it renamed the road after the Sovereign at the time King George V.
The act of renaming the road from Federal Avenue to Kings Avenue gives rise to two interpretations of the name of Commonwealth Avenue. Rather than the name of the new nation Commonwealth of Australia and Federal Avenue for the federation of the states that formed that nation, the interpretation is now Commonwealth Avenue for the Commonwealth of British Colonies and Kings Avenue for the Sovereign of that Commonwealth, violating Griffin's original intent.
The speed limit on Kings Avenue is 60 km/h from the State Circle end to the southwestern side of Kings Avenue Bridge. The speed limit over the bridge and up to the Parkes Way overpass is 80 km/h.
