Residents living near a proposed $98 million seniors housing and childcare complex at Wallsend say the project is a "gross" over-development which will increase traffic problems and overshadow a nearby park.
The Newcastle Herald reported three weeks ago that Charlestown company SNL had lodged a development application with City of Newcastle for six multi-storey buildings comprising 237 apartments, 307 parking spaces, a 106-place childcare centre, gym, cinema, cafe, library and hairdresser off Victory Parade next to Brickworks Park.
