This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a place that means so much to so many.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>GORCAPA is also asking people to submit their stories, memories, and photographs connected to Point Grey to help preserve and celebrate the site\u2019s rich history, which will be reflected through interpretive signage, landscape, and architectural features in the final redevelopment.<\/p>\n<p>As part of early works, NMBW Architects will also assess the original 1948 Fishing Co-Op building to identify elements that can be reclaimed and repurposed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPoint Grey has long been a place of connection for the Lorne community. By sharing our stories, memories, and photographs, we not only preserve this special site\u2019s history, but we also ensure that its future is shaped by the people who know it best,\u201d Ms Ferguson said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know Point Grey holds a special place in many hearts, and I encourage everyone to contribute &#8211; whether it\u2019s a cherished memory or a favourite photo &#8211; to help celebrate this beautiful site.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to hear from as many voices as possible to capture the spirit and stories of this remarkable place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Point Grey Redevelopment is part of the $676 million Geelong City Deal, a collaborative initiative between the federal and Victorian governments, local councils, and GORCAPA.<\/p>\n<p>To view the Draft Urban Design Framework, register for a session, or provide feedback, head to <a href=\"http:\/\/haveyoursay.greatoceanroadauthority.vic.gov.au\/point-grey-redevelopment\">haveyoursay.greatoceanroadauthority.vic.gov.au\/point-grey-redevelopment<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A DRAFT plan to redevelop Lorne&#8217;s Point Grey precinct has been released, and the Great Ocean Road Coast and Parks Authority (GORCAPA) is calling for public feedback.
