A community is only as good as the people who live there.

So let’s meet some of them.

Sakura Lim

Veterinary nurse Sakura Lim got a sneak peek of her new one-bedroom apartment at Nightingale Bowden in late August. The 25-year-old will move in with her two dogs, Cheddar and Coco, in September, after securing an affordable pathway to home ownership via an innovative partnership between Housing Choices South Australia, Renewal SA, SA Housing Authority and not-for-profit, Melbourne-based innovator Nightingale Housing.

SA Circus Centre

During the height of the pandemic, arts company and recreational circus school, SA Circus Centre – home of Cirkidz – found itself in a unique position. While many other South Australian businesses were juggling the crippling nature of tough density limits, it received a bump in bookings for classes at its large Bowden warehouse, where it could meet social distancing requirements.

BST fitness

If you’ve met the effervescent and energetic Brad from BST fitness on Fifth Street, you’d know that the gym is his pride and joy. Brad has been with us since the start of the Bowden redevelopment project and has been an integral part of creating the community you see today.
