Monarch Residences has transformed a once-neglected stretch of Brisbane’s riverfront into a vibrant, connected community. Located in Toowong, this landmark development delivers over 215 apartments across two architecturally striking buildings, alongside generous public open space and the restoration of the historic 150-year-old Middenbury House. The project is designed to cultivate a lifestyle precinct that celebrates Brisbane’s subtropical character and riverfront identity.

Therefor Group has been involved since the project’s inception, guiding it through every stage of planning and continuing to manage applications and approvals throughout construction. Our goal has always been to deliver a high-quality outcome on a high-profile site, while providing trust and certainty to both our client and the community.

From the beginning, our planning team led with innovation – initiating early engagement with stakeholders and the community before formal approval pathways began. We anticipated emerging trends, such as the evolving definition of rooftop gardens, and proactively integrated these into the design to ensure the project remained ahead of the curve.

Monarch Residences is more than a residential development – it’s a destination. The design delivers excellence in form and function, with key public realm outcomes including the proposed Toowong to West End Green Bridge connection, riverfront parkland, and the restoration of Middenbury House.

Recognised with a Commendation for Performance & Innovation in Development at the 2023 Queensland Awards for Planning Excellence, Monarch Residences is a testament to Therefor Group’s leadership, creativity, and commitment to shaping places that inspire, connect, and endure.
