Contextually the site is well located to accommodate the proposed use. The location will
provide future residents a large number of services and amenities, including public open
space and local food and drink outlets, within walking distance of the subject site. Public
transport options are also identified within Pacific Avenue providing an alternative to
private vehicle trips.

The immediately surrounding built forms and locality on a whole exhibit a mix of multiple
dwellings and dwelling houses of varying styles and age. The unit blocks located on the
eastern side of Elanda Street exhibit a higher density and larger built forms to those evident
in the wider locality. The style of dwellings vary considerably on the basis of the age of the
buildings. A number of buildings on the eastern side Elanda Street are identified exhibiting
a built form outcome that presents as 3 or 4 storeys as viewed from within the street
