Cultural Visioning for SOHO

In 2016, Canberra developer Art Group purchased the first parcel of ACT Government land to be released along the new light rail route. Colloquially known as ‘Dickson Flats’, the 2.9-hectare estate is located less than three kilometres from the CBD and boasts an impressive 500-metre frontage along the city’s main artery, Northbourne Avenue.

The site is currently being developed into a mixed-use precinct named ‘Soho’. In its design and development phase, Dionysus joined the project team as cultural consultants providing advice on placemaking and activation.
