Historical information

Mahala Estate in Forrestdale was launched in 2020. The estate is located between Armadale Road, Keane road and Anstey Road. The development is being built on what was formally agricultural land and is surrounded by a series of nature reserves. In 2022 the display home village was finished and a open day was held on 9 July where this promotional material was available. It is the latest in a number of residential developments occurring in the Western Park of the City of Armadale that is seeing agricultural land turned into new residential suburbs.
The estate is being build in partnership by Development WA and the LWP Group. Development WA is a State government agencies established to develop land for living and for jobs. It operates as a commercial enterprise and reports to the Minister for Lands and the Minister for Planning. It was created in 2019 by the merging of State Agencies LandCorp and the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority.

Statement of significance

This item is part of a collection of ephemera collected on 6 April 2016 by the museum to represent the urban development that was occuring in the City of Armadale. Since the year 2000 the City has undergone a major transforation as land once dedicated to agriculture and farming practices has become large urban housing developments. This collection is a snap shot of the cost and types of blocks available and the styles of houses being built in these new housing developments in the 2010s.
