Not only will Paga Hill Estate be an iconic destination for visitors, it will be a place for locals to enjoy. With beautiful public gardens, cafés, restaurants and shops, people from all walks of life can stroll along the vibrant waterfront promenade and enjoy access to the various precincts within the Estate.

As a mixed-use development, most buildings within Paga Hill Estate will provide retail and parking space on the lower levels, followed by offices and apartments on the middle and upper levels.

Design principles
The design of Paga Hill Estate is governed by three guiding principles: inclusive, connected and landmark. Their bold pursuit will make for a vibrant focal point for everyone to enjoy, providing seamless access between zones, presenting a new and progressive image of PNG to the world.
Inclusive
A vibrant focal point for all to enjoyInclusive
Leveraging its natural position on a point, Paga Hill will move away from the gated communities now commonplace in Port Moresby, establishing itself as truly inclusive – a focal point for Paga Hill residents, city residents, tourists and visitors alike.
The site will be one for all to enjoy, a vibrant hub and focal point for the city, and more importantly, an icon of a modern and progressive PNG.
