What’s happening?

The State Significant Development Application was lodged with the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure (DPHI) in October 2025 and was on public exhibition in November 2025.

Homes NSW has prepared a Response To Submissions report, which is publicly available on the DPHI website. Visit the DPHI project webpage for more information. The project was approved on 2 May 2026.

This redevelopment includes the construction of a new residential flat building delivering 145 high-quality social and affordable homes, a communal room for residents, basement car parking and landscaping across the site.

Homes NSW is currently selecting a community housing provider to act as the future delivery partner and property manager for this development.

Next steps

  1. Demolition of existing buildings on site will start in mid-late 2026.
  2. Construction is due to commence in early-mid 2027 and be completed in 2028.
