After a year of development, Quarry Reserve’s $2.35 million upgrades are now complete – with a city skyline lookout.
The upgrades were funded by $1.7 million from the Australian Government, $600,000 from Council and $50,000 from Fisheries Victoria.
A beautiful urban parkland in the heart of Ferntree Gully, many improvements have been made to Quarry Reserve across the last 12 months, including:
Introduction of a nature-based play space
Upgraded public toilets
Additional car parking spaces
Three new fishing platforms
Picnic shelter – including tables, BBQ and a drinking fountain
Over 230 new plants and trees
New paths, stairs and fencing
And now, a brand-new viewing platform, providing all-abilities access.
The viewing platform, positioned on the clifftop, provides beautiful views of the city skyline for community members and visitors alike to stop and enjoy the scenery and surrounds.
