Construction so far at Pier Street
In our December update video below, we caught up with Icon Project Manager Morgan Green and DevelopmentWA Senior Development Manager, Cos Cutri to get a sense of how construction has progressed. We also hear what it will be like to live here for future residents. Take a look!

Excellent amenity and services
Once complete, 195 Pier Street will be owned and operated by a Community Housing Provider, delivering long-term, secure and high-quality affordable rental housing in the heart of Perth.
It's also close to North Metropolitan TAFE and the new ECU City Campus, which is set to open in early 2026.
Residents will benefit from excellent public transport links, including McIver and Perth train stations, the free ‘blue route’ CAT bus, and high-frequency bus services along Newcastle and Beaufort streets.
