PAYCE'S EAST VILLAGE CELEBRATES CHINESE NEW YEAR – YEAR OF THE SHEEP
East Village, Victoria Park Sydney:
Four Days of Fun and Excitement will be the focus of East Village's astonishing new retail centre in Zetland.
Local residents and visitors to the East Village centre will mark the Chinese Year of the Sheep with four days of free fun activities this week to celebrate the Chinese New Lunar calendar Year for 2015.
East Village is a unique, revolutionary retail and lifestyle experience, perfectly located in the vibrant residential community of Victoria Park.
Inspired by some of the world's leading urban marketplaces such as Chelsea Markets and Eataly in New York, Faneuil Hall in Boston and Borough Market in London, East Village is a highly sought locale where lifestyle is paramount.
Commencing on Monday February 16 2015 and travelling through to the New Lunar Year on Thursday February 19 2015, multiple activities for all the family will be catered to by local retailers for everyone visiting the centre to enjoy the festivities.
Dominic Sullivan - East Village is a superb example of innovative and sustainable PAYCE communities.
"East Village is an example of visionary and innovative design that reflects the attention to detail and premium quality PAYCE is renowned for and its focus on community inclusiveness," said Mr Dominic Sullivan of PAYCE - one of Sydney's leading developers of luxury high end residential apartments and commercial complex precincts.
"By incorporating best practice design principles from across the globe and remaining true to PAYCE's ethos of creating organic, sustainable communities that cater to the needs of a busy urban lifestyle. East Village has quickly become a landmark retail and residential precinct which is attracting interest and patronage from all over Sydney," said Mr Dominic Sullivan.
"As Sydney's most unique, inspired and integrated residential, retail, dining and leisure precinct, East Village also offers commercial offices and 206 low-rise residential apartments on the upper levels with a spectacular 6,500 square metre urban Sky Park for residents to relax in and meet with neighbours, friends and family in the park-like setting." - noted Dominic Sullivan.

Celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year with PAYCE.
East Village combines the best elements of a marketplace with the design and sophistication of a modern retail centre. Of equal importance to any innovative and sustainable community is an open area for residents to come together and meet with family, friends and neighbours in a positive, village atmosphere.
East Village retail is such a location, a residential marketplace with a truly global perspective.
Since its launch in October last year, East Village has become a vibrant and inclusive community where cultural heritage and lifestyle are themes to be celebrated and respected.
East Village has already won a series of industry-based awards, including the highest award for Mixed-Use Architecture in the 2014 Sydney Design Awards and a Commendation Award for Design and Innovation in the 2014 Urban Development Institute of Australia (NSW) Awards.
