Stages

The Urban Coup is a Melbourne based co housing group seeking to establish a new community in the inner northern or eastern suburbs close to the centre of Melbourne.

To establish this community, the Urban Coup has three distinct stages.

Stage one – creating the community.

This stage is complete and involved defining the Urban Coup - what we stand for, where we want to live, the built form we want to live in, and the like.
Output
• The Urban Coup Prospectus.

Stage two – planning for success.

This stage maps out all of the steps to deliver the Urban Coup, including legal structures, development model, financial realities etc. It also identifies key risks and opportunities for the Urban Coup. It builds on and relies on what was achieved in Stage One.
This stage is critical as it sets out how the Urban Coup will be taken forward.
Output
• Project plan, which will define the steps required to develop and move into the Urban Coup.
• Preferred legal and financial structure defined.
• Feasibility study, which will map out basic development costs.
• Updated prospectus.

Stage three – realising the vision.

This stage involves developing and moving into the Urban Coup.
Output
• Legal and financial structures in place.
• Urban Coup developed and moved into.
