CONSTRUCTION has begun on a new development in the Byron Bay CBD and commercial tenants are being sought for the building’s ground-floor units.
It encompasses what was previously three residential blocks on the corner of Jonson St and Browning St, across from the Byron Butter Factory Apartments.
The developers, who had some amendments to the approved plans pass through the council in November, recently copped flak from residents for suggesting locals refer to the southern end of Jonson St at “SOJO”.
That term has since been removed from Jonson Lane’s marketing material.
Two upper levels will include 28 housing units.
