“In the longer term, (they want) hotel accommodation in there as well.”
Mr Gleeson said the developer was interested in retaining partial ownership of the precinct.
The plan proposes the future hub include a community club, a brewery, a market place and hotel.
“Our ideal scenario is to have a development partner who can deliver the proposed plan better,” Mr Gleeson said.
“Springfield City Group would use their land ownership as their equity into the deal and someone else brings their expertise or their capital.”
He said the opportunity was flexible and the seller would not rule anything out, provided the precinct itself was “underpinned by hospitality”.
