Looks like the historic Moonee Valley track is never going to be the same again...The Age reports that a $1.4 billion project to build more than 2000 apartments and townhouses at the racecourse - including four high-rise towers - will put it at the forefront of Melbourne's battle to provide housing for a booming population....The proposed residential and commercial development, including four towers more than 20 storeys high, is the centrepiece of a master plan to be released by the Moonee Valley Racing Club within weeks.
