The transition of Brisbane’s Keperra Quarry from an excavation site to a residential community has taken the next steps.
The $500-million-dollar project is set for the second phase of its land release for residents, expected to be ready for home construction by mid-2024.
“Release Two is the first collection of homesites that transition up the hillside of The Quarry and with that comes sweeping views of the D’Aguilar Range and beyond,” Scott Ullman, General Manager Queensland Development at Frasers Property Australia, said.
The project is turning the extractive site into a community featuring around 500 homes as well as community amentities upon completion.

The 60-year-old gravel quarry will progressively curb operations as the development of the residential community gets closer to completion.
Mr Ullman said future homeowners would be immersed in the landscape and history of the quarry.
“More than 40 per cent of the community is dedicated to existing bushland and newly curated green spaces, resident amenities and nature play spaces, alongside more than 100,000 new plants and trees in a true mission towards regeneration,” he said.
“Homes will front tree-lined streets and beautifully curated landscapes. It will be unrecognisable as a quarry in the fullness of time.”
