## Resource

James Packer’s real estate empire in Melbourne is booming, with NPACT pushing ahead on five major projects despite his past drama and jet-setting lifestyle. From luxury Balwyn estates to affordable housing in Geelong, the company’s ambitious developments—including a towering Kew complex facing local pushback and a historic Hotel Lindrum transformation—are turning heads and cash registers. Led now by Lawrence Myers after the loss of longtime executive Todd Nisbet, NPACT proves Packer’s faith in Melbourne’s property market is as strong as ever.
