The Lathlain Precinct Redevelopment Project (LPRP) is a $70 million revitalisation project being partly delivered under a unique public-private partnership, to provide a sustainable multi-use sporting, recreation, health and education precinct for the whole community.
To deliver the project, a partnership was formed between the Town, West Coast Eagles, Wirrpanda Foundation and Perth Football Club, which aimed to set new standards in the delivery of an active community sports complex, as well as lasting community benefits.
Works have been completed on the the newly redeveloped Mineral Resources Park, which is home to the West Coast Eagles and the Perth Demons. The precinct contains two AFL sized ovals, administration and training facilities for both men’s and women’s football programs, a merchandise store, a start-of-the-art function space, and café, as well as being home to the Wirrpanda Foundation.
The newly constructed Lathlain Park is a new public open space featuring an all-abilities playground and nature play area, picnic facilities, fenced dog area and two new multi-sport courts.
