The site at 50-70 Mann Street was previously occupied by the Frogys roller-skating venue, a much-loved institution on the Central Coast. Frogys was demolished in 2017, and the site has been vacant since that time.
ALAND plans to bring a vibrant Mediterranean flavour to Gosford CBD with Amalfi By ALAND – a cluster of three oval-shaped glass towers that will feature a mixture of one, two- and three-bedroom apartments, plus a collection of four-bedroom sky homes..
The residential component of Amalfi By ALAND sits atop a commercial podium that will contain a supermarket, a café and a destination restaurant. Each of the towers will feature a residents-only rooftop swimming pool.
The $600M development is located in the Gosford City Centre, within easy reach of Gosford train station, Kibble Park, Industree Group Stadium, Gosford waterfront and Gosford Hospital.
ALAND CEO George Tadrosse said Amalfi by ALAND builds on the excitement generated by Archibald By ALAND, a major residential, hospitality and lifestyle development nearing completion on nearby Donnison Street; 99% of the 327 apartments at Archibald by ALAND are already sold.
“The response to our Archibald development from the Gosford community has been quite overwhelming,” he said. “Demand for the apartments was so strong that many people missed out, so those buyers now have a further opportunity to secure a high-quality brand-new ALAND apartment just around the corner,.” he said.
“Amalfi By ALAND is the next chapter in the story of Gosford’s transformation, offering superior open-plan apartments and a number of special features such as glass-screened balconies and rooftop swimming pools.”
The announcement was welcomed by the Member for Gosford, Liesl Tesch MP, who said that Amalfi By ALAND will help reinforce Gosford’s reputation as the capital of the Central Coast.
“Thank you to ALAND, who are so committed to investing in Gosford’s future,” she said. “The future of Gosford is being built today, and I cannot wait to see what ALAND’s Amalfi project has in store,” she said.”
Central Coast Council Mayor, Cr Lawrie McKinna, said the new ALAND development will complement other projects including the new $32.7M Gosford Regional Library and $8.5M revitalisation of the Gosford Waterfront.
By 2041 the population of the Central Coast is expected to grow by 100,000, while the local economy will generate 55,000 new jobs over the same period.
