It’s official - the ribbon has been cut! ✂️✨
Today marked a truly special milestone for the inner-north as we officially opened the doors to Goodwin Village Downer. We were absolutely delighted to have ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr MLA join the celebration, alongside ACT Minister for Health Rachel Stephen-Smith MLA, who performed the ceremonial ribbon cutting with CHC CEO Nathan Dal Bon, Goodwin Board Chair Fiona Jolly, Goodwin CEO Stephen Holmes and first Downer residents Chris & Angelika.
Located on Melba Street, this beautiful new community features:
📌 109 premium independent living apartments filled with natural light.
📌 20 boutique serviced apartments offering that little bit of extra daily support.
📌 A heritage-inspired design featuring deep red and dark grey terracotta façades that pay homage to the classic 1960s character of the inner-north.
📌 Future-proofed living built entirely to strict accessibility standards so our residents can safely age in place.
As a local, not-for-profit organisation that has been part of Canberra since 1954, remaining entirely Canberra owned and operated is what truly sets us apart. We are incredibly proud of our partnership with Community Housing Canberra (CHC) to include dedicated affordable rental options here, ensuring everyone has the chance to age with dignity, security, and a true sense of belonging.
To our very first residents who have already made Downer home - welcome to the neighbourhood! 🏡❤️
