The Queensland government has accelerated plans for the athlete village for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games with Planning Minister Steven Miles approving the expansion of the Northshore Hamilton Priority Development Area (PDA), about 6 kilometres north of the CBD.
An additional 1.2 kilometres of waterfront has been added to the development plans and will house the athletes village which will host more than 10,000 athletes and team officials for the Olympic Games and about 5,000 for the Paralympic Games.
Following the games, the village will be converted to provide 1,750 apartments as well as commercial and retail space.
