Update July

In late 2024, the City of Vincent undertook a Context and Gap Analysis to inform the development of the new Leederville Town Centre Place Plan.

This analysis built upon the findings of the comprehensive analysis undertaken as part of the draft Leederville Precinct Structure Plan in 2019 and confirmed that many of the previously identified challenges persist. It also identified any additional themes that will need to be addressed in the new Place Plan.

To ensure the plan reflects the needs and aspirations of the community, Vincent recruited a Community Focus Group (CFG) in February and March 2025. This group included a diverse mix of stakeholders—local town team members, developers, business and commercial property owners, and engaged residents.

Between March and May 2025, the CFG participated in three collaborative workshops. The outcomes of these sessions are documented in a Community Engagement Report, available in the Documents section to the right of this page.

Background

The existing Leederville Town Centre Place Plan 2020/21-2024/25 is in its final year of operation and will be replaced by the 2025/26-2029/30 version.

The area covered by this plan includes the town centre along the western end of Newcastle Street and along Oxford Street up to Richmond Street.

The plan aligns with the Leederville Precinct Structure Plan, the Community Benefit Framework and all other projects Vincent is leading on or facilitating in the Leederville Town Centre.

All of the above have had some level of community consultation and the proposed Place Plan aims to build on this.

Project details

The City of Vincent is developing a new place plan for the Leederville town centre which includes developing a vision for how the public realm can be improved and activated over the next few years.

Planning for the public realm includes anything that affects the broader look and feel of public spaces and streets, as well as its activation.
