'I think that it's the best penthouse in all of Docklands, it has panoramic, uninterrupted views across the Yarra River and Melbourne CBD's skyline,' Ms Zucha said.

A new book aims to fix housing affordability, but there's a better solution for Victoria
Melbourne's time in the property price doldrums could be over, ending a dream run for first home buyers in the Victorian capital. But it wasn't only the politics of Abundance, the economics book that's sitting on the nightstands of federal cabinet members, that got us there. The new book by US-based journalists Derek Thompson and Ezra Klein calls for deregulation to ease supply-side restrictions on housing and other vital industries to make houses (as well as healthcare and clean energy) more affordable, accessible and abundant. It doesn't deviate from conventional economic wisdom in this regard, and it's been widely read in Canberra. Its ideas are likely to be part of the discussion at next month's productivity summit. Australia's political system already has a neoliberal consensus; there is bipartisan support to grow the economy by making it easier for corporations to do business and for capital to flow. This same logic is already applied to the housing market, visible in our recent preference for supply-side solutions. One key area where Thompson and Klein hit the nail on the head, however, is the negative effect that restrictive zoning has on housing supply. Victoria has been building more new homes per person than NSW for years, but, like much of Australia, it still faces challenges from local councils to promote infill development and improve housing access in inner Melbourne. It's against this backdrop that the latest house price figures were released on Thursday. Victoria's affordability achievement was modest; house prices in Melbourne are 2.7 per cent below their December 2021 peak on Domain data, but remain unaffordable to most. Melbourne's median is $1,064,000, Sydney's is $1,722,000, and Brisbane's $1,060,000. However, lending data show first home buyers made use of the 3½-year window to purchase. Loading 'It was good, it has to be seen as good, prices did come down a bit,' AMP chief economist Dr Shane Oliver says. 'That would have provided some opportunities for first home buyers that they wouldn't have otherwise had. 'But affordability is still relatively poor in Victoria, it's just not as bad as some other places – Sydney, Brisbane and even Adelaide.'

E-bikes and e-scooters face Sydney train and metro ban
The government is considering plans to ban e-bikes and e-scooters from Sydney's train and metro network amid fears of onboard fires sparked by lithium batteries. In the same week as a portable charging pack caught fire mid-air on a Virgin flight, signs began popping up at Sydney train stations advising of a new request to keep e-bikes off trains. 'Please don't bring e-bikes, e-scooters and e-skateboards on board Sydney Trains services,' read the sign, which was shared online by cycling enthusiasts. 'Some lithium batteries can pose a fire risk.' But they were erected prematurely. NSW and Victorian state governments wrote to the federal government this week asking for stronger laws around the importation of low-quality e-bikes and e-scooters. Until that changes, Transport Minister John Graham said NSW was 'seriously considering options including a temporary ban on trains until we are satisfied that regulations are tight enough, with public safety as our highest priority'. If the government goes ahead with the ban, the posters will be used as a 'request' before the ban comes into effect. In briefings with stakeholder groups this week, Transport for NSW officials said they were planning to start a ban from September 1. E-bikes often contain lithium-ion batteries, which have become a major source of concern for fire authorities. They have regularly featured in home fires when e-bike and e-scooter chargers have caught fire overnight.
