Leisure and Entertainment
Passionately devoted to sport, and the arts, the people of Melbourne enjoy a
wealth of both in a surprising number of venues indoors and out.
The following describes Melbourne at its best (www.melbourne.vic.gov.au):
Built on two waterways, the Yarra River and the Port Phillip Bay, Melbourne has
always been bother a bustling seaport and city pre-occupied with river-bank
activities. On sunny summer morning's well-dressed executives from nearby city
offices breakfast in groups by the water, while cyclists and joggers follow
paths hugging the river's edge. With the city skyline as a backdrop, the scene
is one of extraordinary beauty and tranquillity.
Some of Melbourne's sense of fun, and individual character is evident during the
Spring Racing Carnival, particularly at the running of the Melbourne Cup in
November, when high fashion and mad hats are the order of the day. Another fine
example of Melbourne at its individual best is during the Aussie rules footy
season. Played during the winter months, the Grand Final regularly attracts
crowds in excess of 100,000 Melburnians, each one barracking and bawling
instructions from the stands.
Melbourne has also come to be known as one of the restaurant capitals of the
world. A rich multicultural population has contributed, and there is barely a
cultural dish that cannot be found. A city that can play host to an
international tennis match one day, and stage an outdoor concert for the Three
Tenors the next, is just a taste of what is available at any one time in the
"world's most liveable city".
The city of Melbourne is the home, workplace and leisure centre of one of the
world's most harmonious communities. Internationally renowned as a liveable city,
Melbourne is also regarded as one of the friendliest cities in the world.
Melbourne also offers world class education system. Australia has become a top
preference for parents to send their children to obtain high standard of
education. Melbourne ranks highly on the list in safety, affordability,
geographically proximate compared to, say, European countries. Best of all is
the balanced lifestyle with plenty to do.
Central Equity is a reputable provider of inner city living has responded to the
demand of inner city apartments. Given the changing demographics, there is a
general increasing trend to switch from the traditional house & land ownership
in the outer suburb to a low maintenance prestigious apartment located in the
"heart of the action". Also increased migration, a more mobile work force and
higher international students numbers are drivers of demand.
Central Equity delivers apartments of high quality, affordable and located in
Melbourne addresses that many would envy. Most apartments have spectacular views
of the city and the bays, which is ideal for living and especially entertaining.
As owner-occupier or investors of Central Equity apartments do reap the rewards
of living so close to everything Melbourne has to offer as described earlier.
