Lakeside Pakenham defeated six other contestants to win the coveted Best Masterplanned Development title at the 2008 UDIA Victorian Awards for Excellence.
Awarded by the Urban Development Institute of Australia, the accolade is the highest honour in development. Lakeside will now represent Victoria at the UDIA national awards.
Lakeside project director Sharon Coates said the achievement was the result of careful planning and design by a dedicated team. “From Lakeside’s inception, it was Delfin’s vision to create a special place that connected a community and set new benchmarks in technology, services and environmental sustainability,” Ms Coates said.
“The overall key to the success of Lakeside has been an ongoing emphasis on understanding the needs of our residents, businesses and prospective buyers. “We are proud to have created a community that has set new industry benchmarks and, most importantly, is a special place for our residents to call home.”
