Two six-storey buildings on Northbourne Avenue would form part of the ACT's latest retirement village if a new development application is approved.
The buildings would be part of the second stage of the Newlyne precinct in Lyneham, a large-scale estate in the city's inner north.
The first stage of the Newlyne project includes another six-storey building with 56 additional retirement living homes. That building, which is currently under construction, is expected to be completed and have residents moving in within the next 12 months.
