Project overview
Explorer St, Eveleigh NSW 2015
The NSW Government is rezoning the Explorer Street social housing estate to deliver new social, affordable and private housing.
The area proposed for redevelopment includes 46 social housing dwellings on Explorer Street, Station Place and Aurora Place that are owned and managed by Homes NSW. The site is about 2km south of Sydney CBD within the City of Sydney local government area.
The rezoning will enable:
- potential construction of up to 400 new homes. Up to 50% of these homes will be dedicated for social and affordable housing
- the recognition of the Aboriginal cultural value to this area through the dedication of 20% of affordable homes to Aboriginal people
- opportunity to improve pedestrian connections to surrounding streets.
What's happening now
Following community consultation and a detailed assessment, the rezoning application has now been approved. We would like to thank community and stakeholders for their valued feedback and ongoing engagement throughout this process.
