Cremorne is the leading Tech-Centric Precinct in Australia and is home to numerous successful digital and disruptive businesses such as REA Group, Carsales.com, MYOB, Tesla, Seek, Disney and many others.
The proximity to Melbourne CBD, with easy and fast access to Richmond train station and trams (5 min from LaunchPad), major access roads, bike trails and gardens, is appealing to businesses who don’t want the pain associated with being in the city itself. Cremorne is home to top cafes and restaurants, with nearby Swan St and Church St – a popular destination as well as 10 cafes within a few blocks of LaunchPad and the Malt District (over the road) and Seek building with upcoming new supermarket, bars, cafes and event spaces.
Cremorne has a past steeped in innovation, being the site of the first ever amusement park in Australia, Cremorne Gardens in the 1850s. It was also the site of the first ever manned balloon flight, with a dedicated Railway Station and Paddle Steamer port, Bowling Alley, Cyclorama and numerous enterprises which didn’t always succeed, but blazed the trail for future pioneers.
It remains one of the most sought after locations for businesses. Cremorne has a bright future as it builds on its past while staying relevant in the present with an eye on inspiring future entrepreneurs.
