About Southport
Southport is the Gold Coast's designated CBD and administrative capital. The Southport Priority Development Area, Gold Coast University Hospital, Griffith University, and light rail have catalysed a massive transformation from a traditional retail centre into a genuine high-density urban core. Southport offers the Gold Coast's most diverse development landscape.
Development Potential
Very high. The Southport Priority Development Area supports towers of 40+ storeys and is one of Queensland's most active development precincts. Broadwater frontage sites command exceptional premiums. The combination of light rail, hospital, and university creates a unique transit-oriented development opportunity.
