LCZ 5 – Johnston Street precinct This LCZ is located along the crest of the Annandale ridge between Booth Street and Piper Street, after which the LCZ slopes northwards, down towards Rozelle Bay. The wide, tree lined Johnston Street forms a north–south spine and is bisected by several narrower cross streets and laneways that run east–west across it. The topography of the northern section of the neighbourhood changes considerably with the western side of Johnston Street elevated, and the eastern side lower and falling away to The Crescent.
Built form within the LCZ varies from single storey Federation dwellings (see Figure 5-18) and grander scaled Victorian-style buildings, to post war civic and commercial buildings. There are also some examples of multi-unit development along Johnston Street. The LCZ falls within the Annandale Heritage Conservation Area which is one of a number of conservation areas that collectively illustrate the nature of Sydney’s early suburbs and Leichhardt’s suburban growth particularly between 1871 and 1891. Johnston Street itself is recognised for its landscape heritage and several dwellings within the neighbourhood are recognised for their architectural heritage. This includes original buildings such as The Abbey, the ‘Witches’ Houses’ (see Figure 5-19) and Annandale North Public School which enhance the character of the streetscape.
There are several areas towards the northern end of the neighbourhood which have extensive views towards the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Anzac Bridge and Sydney City. These views increase at the intersection with The Crescent. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-5 and shown on Figure 5-21. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

LCZ 6 – Annandale Street and Young Street precinct This LCZ is located on the western slope of the Annandale ridge and inclines down towards Whites Creek Valley to the west, and to the light rail line to the north. Young Street and Annandale Street run on a north–south axis within the LCZ and are bisected by several cross streets and laneways that run east–west across it. Part of the neighbourhood is within a Heritage Conservation Area. The LCZ is shown on Figure 5-25.
The LCZ has a very mixed character created by the range of architectural styles and building heights. The housing style is predominantly low scale Victorian workers’ cottages, mixed with single storey Californian bungalows, weatherboard cottages and fibro cottages. The elevated nature of the northern section of the LCZ provides many larger dwellings with access to views over Rozelle Bay and the City. The steep slopes around Bayview Crescent expose attractive sandstone outcrops (see Figure 5-22). The slopes also allow for significant views overlooking the railway yards to the north and north-west, Rozelle Bay to the north east, and the City to east.
A significant attribute of the LCZ is the prevalence of mature street trees and established front gardens and landscaped yards. This creates vegetative corridors that contribute significantly to amenity and screening (see Figure 5-23 and Figure 5-24). The whole of Annandale Street is lined with continuous rows of heritage listed, mature native street trees, which due to their height create a natural avenue which is relatively unbroken along its length. The street trees on Railway Parade are also listed as heritage items.
There are a number of commercial buildings that front Annandale Street with several large redeveloped commercial buildings including two buildings on the corner of Piper Street and a converted shop on the corner of Kentville Avenue. The Sydney Water Aqueduct which crosses Whites Creek Valley is positioned towards the northern end of the LCZ and acts as a barrier to vehicular traffic along Young Street. Cohen Park, a recreational area, is located just north of the viaduct. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-6. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage items located within this LCZ.

LCZ 7 – Whites Creek Valley precinct This LCZ is focussed around Whites Creek and is characterised by the creek and its banks, open grassed areas, dense mature vegetation, wetlands, sports courts, children’s play equipment, light rail overpass and a small number of dwellings of varying styles. The LCZs dense vegetation provides significant screening to surrounding areas.
Dwellings at the northern end of the LCZ along White Street are characterised by contemporary town house style residential developments. South of this, towards Piper Street, there are a small number of single detached dwellings of varying styles. The creek itself consists of a concreted constructed bed with moderate height wire fencing along its edges as shown in Figure 5-26. A landmark element of the precinct is the State heritage Whites Creek Aquaduct which crosses the LCZ east-west. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-7 and are shown on Figure 5-27.

Figure 5-27 LCZ 7 Whites Creek Valley precinct 66
LCZ 8 – Catherine Street precinct The Catherine Street LCZ is located on the eastern side of the main Leichhardt/Balmain ridge. It predominantly slopes down in a north-easterly direction and has a gentle hill and valley landform. The gradient towards Whites Creek is much steeper and provides views over the light rail line to the Annandale ridge and the city skyline. The prevailing street pattern is a north–south orientation.
There is a prevailing low-scale built form character and consistency of residential form in the area. The general single storey cottage style in the LCZ tends to change towards the edges and at the ends of wider streets, with a visible increase in building height and form.
Buildings are elevated above a rocky outcrop along Gladstone Street (see Figure 5-28) which allows for some excavated garaging, with the built form above characterised by original residences which are of a small cottage scale. Some two storey contemporary development has occurred on the western side of the street which are afforded city views. The area of the LCZ along the City West Link has a clear physical departure from the character of the remainder of the LCZ reinforced by noise barriers along its edge.
There is a substantial amount of vegetation throughout the LCZ in both the private and public domain (including nature strips or verges). There are frequent open vistas available up and down the streets, especially those towards the city, which greatly contribute to amenity and character. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-8 and shown on Figure 5-29. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

Figure 5-29 LCZ 8 Catherine Street precinct 68
LCZ 9 – Catherine Street neighbourhood centre precinct This LCZ serves a role as a small neighbourhood centre. It is characterised by an existing strip of shops on the western side of Catherine Street, around Piper Street, and at the corner of City West Link. These shops have multi-storey residential housing that sits above it, setback from the lower levels. These residences (shown in Figure 5-30) are afforded significant, direct views to the east across Rozelle Rail Yards and the Sydney CBD.
There are also several properties on the eastern side of Catherine Street that were originally constructed as shops, although are not currently used for that purpose. The LCZ is well defined by topography, with Piper Street situated on the rise of the hill, and the Lilyfield light rail stop situated at the base of the incline. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage There are no non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas or heritage items or registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

Figure 5-31 LCZ 9 Catherine Street neighbourhood centre precinct 70
LCZ 10 – Balmain Road precinct The character of the LCZ is significantly influenced by the regular road pattern and subdivision layout. The streets are predominantly wide tree-lined residential streets, with nature strips or verges often planted with native trees and shrubs (see Figure 5-32).
There is a prevailing low scale built form in the LCZ with dwellings primarily detached, single storey cottages. Architectural styles vary reflecting different periods of residential development these include Victorian, some Federation and examples of post-war dwellings.
The parts of the LCZ fronting the City West Link and Balmain Road depart from the character of the core of the LCZ with much more varied development. The change in character in Balmain Road is more transitional, whereas the City West Link has a clear physical departure from the homogenous character of the remainder of the neighbourhood. This is reinforced by noise barriers and a change of level at the end of Pretoria, Russell and Lonsdale Streets. There are however still pockets of detached, single storey cottages evident in these parts of the LCZ. Further changes in built form character include the light industrial area with frontages to Moore and MacKenzie Streets and the Leichhardt bowling club which fronts Piper Street near Balmain Road.
There are open vistas available up and down the streets, especially those towards the city, which greatly contribute to amenity and character. War Memorial Park is a significant open space and landscape feature within the LCZ. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-9. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

Figure 5-33 LCZ 10 Balmain Road precinct 72
LCZ 11 – Nanny Goat Hill residential precinct The Nanny Goat Hill residential precinct is located on the southern side of the main Lilyfield/Rozelle ridge. The LCZ is shown on Figure 5-37.The LCZ is strongly defined by its topography which slopes away from Balmain Road to the southeast becoming much steeper closer to Lilyfield Road. There is also a small area around Halloran Street that lies in a basin surrounded by steeply rising land. The general elevation of the land, and the views available from it, greatly add to amenity.
The majority of roads within the LCZ are orientated north to south down the slope, which provides for views out to Whites Creek Valley and the ridge of Annandale as shown in Figure 5-34 and Figure 5-35. The rising elevation in the eastern part of the LCZ allows views to the Sydney CBD. The prevailing built form in the neighbourhood is single storey detached cottages on reasonably uniform sized allotments. There are some multi-unit developments from various eras scattered throughout the neighbourhood (see Figure 5-36).
There is an abundance of street planting throughout the LCZ, including mainly native species such as brush boxes, bottlebrushes and some eucalyptus. Informal planting in private backyards, including high canopy trees, further add to the amenity and character of the LCZ. The residences that front Lilyfield Road to the east of Justin Street have views to the Rozelle Rail Yards, which are currently partially screened by some mature and some moderate intermittent tree plantings. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-10 and shown on Figure 5-37. Registered Aboriginal heritage sites within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-11 and shown on Figure 5-37.

LCZ 12 – Halloran Street commercial precinct This LCZ is located within the block bordered by Halloran Street, Lilyfield Road, Justin Street and Joseph Street and is characterised by commercial buildings. The developments are generally two storeys in height with no setbacks and are 70s/80s industrial in style (see Figure 5-38). This represents a significant departure to the adjacent and adjoining residential area which is largely historic in character. The industrial building that fronts Lilyfield Road has views to the Rozelle Rail Yards.

LCZ 13 – Easton Park residential precinct This LCZ is located at the south-eastern corner of the Balmain Peninsula. It is strongly defined by its topography, which looks across a valley to Annandale and Glebe towards the south and east. The LCZ contains some significant vegetation. Mature trees are located on both public and private land with larger trees located around Easton Park (see Figure 5-40).
The LCZ contains three parks – Easton Park, O’Connor Reserve and Rozelle Common. Easton Park is the largest of these and is located at the southern end of the precinct along Lilyfield Road. It is characterised by a playground, a sports field, cricket nets and dense mature figs that border its northern, eastern and western edges (see Figure 5-41).
The LCZ is primarily residential in character and the current and original scale of development is predominately single storey, freestanding cottages. A number of two storey houses however are located along the higher elevations and adjacent to Easton Park at the foot of the hill with some recent developments such as townhouses, located along Alfred Street. There are also numerous smaller infill developments located throughout the LCZ which consist of single houses and semi- detached dwellings (see example at Figure 5-42). The dwellings east of Gordon Street tend to be more substantial masonry houses and terraces (see Figure 5-43).
The height and scale of housing is also partially affected by sandstone outcrops in the lower half of the neighbourhood. The corner of Denison and Alfred Streets, at the top of Easton Park serves as a small neighbourhood hub and includes a corner shop, heritage listed Smiths Hall building as well as Easton Park.
There are three distinct character areas within the neighbourhood that are located within heritage conservation areas:
• Evans Street • Most of the area east of Gordon Street • ‘Knoll’ west of Easton Park. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-12 and shown on Figure 5-44. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

LCZ 14 – Victoria Road south precinct The precinct is characterised by high volumes of traffic with vehicles travelling to and from the city via Victoria Road, which serves as a main arterial for the Inner West of Sydney. Victoria Road incorporates a pedestrian bridge near Lilyfield Road.
This LCZ includes a number of commercial businesses that have frontages to Victoria Road as well as some small areas of open space along the LCZs north-western edge. Parts of these open space areas are densely vegetated with mature trees that provide screening for the adjacent residences in Quirk Street (see Figure 5-45).
It also includes a pedestrian bridge which spans Victoria Road near its junction with Lilyfield Road. The built form fronting Victoria road is generally degraded and when combined with the utilitarian road infrastructure and high levels of traffic create an area of generally low visual amenity. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-13 and are shown on Figure 5-47. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

LCZ 15 – White Bay Power Station precinct This LCZ is located immediately east of Victoria Road and is bounded by Robert Street to its north. It is characterised by the decommissioned White Bay Power Station, which is a heritage listed, former coal fired power station.
The remains of the power station can be clearly seen at the western end of Anzac Bridge on the junction of Victoria Road and Roberts Street. The station came on line in 1917 and was decommissioned in 1984. The site is now inaccessible to the general public. The power station boiler houses have a dramatic vertical façade and serves as a landmark with its remaining chimneys easily identified from many vantage points (see Figure 5-48). The southern boundary of the LCZ comprises a row of uniform tree plantings which provides moderate levels of screening from Victoria Road/Western Distributor.

LCZ 18 – Rozelle light rail corridor and Whites Creek canal precinct This LCZ is located primarily in parallel to and to the south of City West Link, veering to the south-east at The Crescent. It is characterised by a linear light rail line structure with dense vegetation along either side of the corridor, which serves to generally screen views to and from the adjacent residential areas.
The light rail corridor forms part of the Inner West rail line, which runs from Central to Dulwich Hill. It includes the Lilyfield stop, located near to the junction of Catherine Street and City West Link. The stop is built as an island platform and is accessed by stairs and a lift from Catherine Street. It also includes the Rozelle Bay stop, located adjacent to Railway Parade and Bayview Crescent (see Figure 5-57).
There are two local heritage listed railway bridges within the LCZ, the Annandale Railway Bridge (see Figure 5-58) and the Johnston Street Underbridge. The Glebe Railway viaduct is a State heritage listed item which consists of a number of stone arches that curve around the southern edge of Jubilee Park (see Figure 5-56).
The Whites Creek canal runs parallel to the light rail line within this LCZ and is characterised by a concrete channel with high wire fencing and vegetation along its edges. It crosses beneath the light rail line at the northern end of Bayview Crescent and continues east underneath The Crescent out to Rozelle Bay. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-16 and shown on Figure 5-59. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

Figure 5-59 LCZ 18 Rozelle light rail corridor and Whites Creek precinct 93
LCZ 19 – Rozelle Rail Yards precinct This LCZ is primarily located on the site of the former Metropolitan Goods railway line in a wide cutting. The overall landscape character of the Rozelle Rail Yards precinct is associated with its former use that is, a mainly flat landform with some gentle gradients. It is currently a disused and degraded brownfield site with associated redundant rail infrastructure, stockpiles and native and exotic vegetation regrowth that has established itself over recent years. Exceptions to this include a number of industrial buildings located on the LCZs central northern edge near Gordon Street which vary in height from one to two storeys and are largely of a warehouse style character (see Figure 5-63) and the Rozelle maintenance depot adjacent to Lilyfield Road and Catherine Street (under construction). The facility, which adjoins the western boundary of the project, forms part of the CBD and South East Light Rail project. The construction site is visually characterised by a number of temporary site offices, building materials, an access road and fences/hoarding (see Figure 5-62). The Rozelle Rail Yards site management works is a separate project approved to manage the existing environmental and safety issues within part of the Rozelle Rail Yards precinct (commenced and anticipated to be around 12 months in duration). The works would result in the removal of vegetation, waste, stockpiles of materials, existing rail infrastructure, buildings and redundant services. These works significantly alter the character of the majority of this LCZ. The south-eastern corner of the LCZ is currently characterised by dense mature vegetation which provides some screening to City West Link. This vegetation will be removed as part of the planned Rozelle Rail Yards site management works. The vegetation above the cutting adjoining the terraces at the eastern end of Lilyfield Road will be retained. Victoria Road borders the eastern side of the LCZ via a road bridge over the former rail line that previously connected the rail yards and White Bay. Along its southern boundary the LCZ is mostly screened by vegetation along the City West Link road corridor. The area surrounding the site can be broadly characterised as having an inner city urban landscape character.
Although mature vegetation currently encloses the site to views from adjacent roads, much of this vegetation will be removed as part of the site management works. Some elevated residential areas to the north are currently afforded filtered views across the site and these views would change once the site management works have been carried out.
The LCZ includes a section of Catherine Street, which forms a bridge connecting Lilyfield Road with City West Link. From parts of Catherine Street and from the entry to the light rail stop, broad views across the site are available. In these views, the CBD skyline is prominent, in conjunction with the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Glebe Island grain silos and Anzac Bridge (see Figure 5-62). Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-17 and shown on Figure 5-60. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

5.3.3 Northern landscape character zones (Iron Cove Link) This section describes the existing character of the seven LCZs (see Figure 5-64) associated with the Iron Cove Link.
LCZ 20 – Victoria Road north precinct This LCZ is shown on Figure 5-65 and is characterised by high volumes of traffic, with vehicles travelling to and from the city via Victoria Road, which serves as a main arterial for the inner west of Sydney.
North of Darling Street, the LCZ slopes down towards Iron Cove (see Figure 5-66). The slope and low lying nature of this section of Victoria Road allows reasonably unimpeded views to the north-west along the corridor until Callan Street, where the curve in the road prevents complete views from higher on the ridge to Iron Cove. From Callan Street there are direct views to Iron Cove.
Development to either side of Victoria Road within the LCZ ranges in scale from single storey to three storeys. The north-eastern side of the road is characterised by shallow lots with wide street frontages onto Victoria Road. The south-western side of the road is primarily characterised by a mix of later 1900s industrial style buildings and Victorian style two storey shops and residences (see Figure 5-67). Other building forms include housing from the inter-war years, traditional pubs and a church building currently used as a Community College.
A number of buildings that front Victoria Road incorporate original shop front detailing and weather protection through the incorporation of cantilevered awnings. A number also have nil setbacks and restricted vehicle access resulting from there being no formal lane structure. The former Balmain Leagues Club site is located near the ridgeline to the north-west of Darling Street and comprises a vacant and derelict building.
There is minimal vegetation within the LCZ which combined with the utilitarian road infrastructure, at times degraded built form and high levels of traffic, create an area of low visual amenity. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-18 and shown on Figure 5-65. There are no identified Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

LCZ 21 – Victoria Road light industrial precinct The Victoria Road light industrial precinct is located along the north-eastern side of Victoria Road between Terry and Wellington Streets and comprises a variety of commercial premises. The LCZ forms a distinct employment area with a variety of uses ranging from light manufacturing, warehousing, ancillary commercial and retail uses and car related uses (see Figure 5-68).
The precinct is characterised by a diverse range of subdivision patterns and the built form varies due to changes in land uses and topography. Building heights, setbacks, and access arrangements differ depending on the age and function of the building and the size and location of the lots. The premises that front Victoria Road within this LCZ have partial views to Iron Cove. The LCZ is shown on Figure 5-69. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage There are no non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas or heritage items or registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

LCZ 22 – Iron Cove residential precinct This LCZ is located to the north of Victoria Road as shown on Figure 5-70, and is characterised by a topography that steeply slopes downwards from the ridgeline at Darling Street to Iron Cove.
The road pattern in the LCZ is based around three main roads: Victoria Road, Terry Street and Darling Street. Minor roads within the LCZ connect between Darling and Terry streets and provide for views over Iron Cove and further west.
The south-western area of the LCZ is characterised by two major multi-unit residential developments (Balmain Shores and Balmain Cove). The developments each consist of a series of buildings up to eight storeys high (see Figure 5-71). To the north of Balmain Shores and Balmain Cove is Sydney Secondary College Balmain Campus.
The LCZ is characterised by intermittent, mature vegetation at its border with Victoria Road. This becomes significantly denser closer to Iron Cove Bridge. A range of public open space has been established along the foreshore of these sites and includes Bridgewater Park and an active transport link between King George Park in the south west and Sydney Secondary College Balmain Campus in the north east.
Terry Street comprises a mix of single and double storey residences, with residences primarily Victorian era in character. The south-eastern side of Terry Street includes two blocks of recently– developed multi-storey apartments (‘Union Balmain’) (see Figure 5-72). The southernmost upper level apartments have direct views to Victoria Road and beyond. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-19 and shown on Figure 5-70. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

LCZ 23 – King George Park precinct The King George Park LCZ forms a small part of the broader network of Iron Cove Parklands, and includes an adjoining harbour area known as Iron Cove. The LCZ is generally flat and allows for views across the water towards Drummoyne.
King George Park includes both active and passive recreation facilities. This encompasses an oval used by local sporting groups as well as local schools for sports carnivals, a fitness station, a children’s playground and a section of the Iron Cove Bay Run along the foreshore (see Figure 5-73 and Figure 5-74).
The LCZ features a row of mature trees towards the eastern edge at the point where the topography begins to slope upwards. It also features dense mature trees along its western and southern edges with intermittent landscape plantings along its Iron Cove frontage.
There is a small jetty that extends from King George Park over the bay and a harbour wall runs most of the way along the edge of the park. The small bay is a mooring area for a number of private boating vessels (see Figure 5-75). A former amenities block in the car park area adjacent to Manning Street has recently been demolished and replaced with a new upgraded facility which is located in the south western part of the LCZ.
The LCZ provides high levels of amenity to the users of the park and Bay Run, as well as the residences located adjacent to it. The interface between the LCZ and the adjacent dwellings contributes significantly to the character of the residential streets and provides important streetscape values to the locality. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage There are no non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas or heritage items and no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ. The King George Park Draft Plan of Management referred to incomplete land claims lodged by the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council. These were not complete and may not necessarily denote Aboriginal cultural or scientific archaeological values (refer Appendix V (Technical working paper: Aboriginal heritage) of the EIS).

a e d p n a u c o s B d n a LEGEND L Figure 5-76
LCZ 24 – Callan Park residential precinct This LCZ is shown on Figure 5-77, and is bounded by King George Park to the west, the Callan Park grounds to the west and south, Victoria Road and Darling Street, in the north and east. The topography slopes steeply from Victoria Road and Darling Street down to King George Park, creating a west facing valley (see Figure 5-78). Sandstone outcrops remain at the lower end of the slopes, along some of the street frontages.
The road layout provides extensive views over the adjoining parklands and Iron Cove. In the middle of the neighbourhood, there are views over the Kirkbride building within Callan Park (including from Victoria Road), currently used by the Sydney College of the Arts.
The LCZ has a distinct, often uniform scale and character and comprises primarily single storey detached dwellings dating from the late 1800s and early 1900s (see Figure 5-79). Adjacent to King George Park, there are a number of two storey dwellings (see Figure 5-80).
At the bottom of the valley along Manning, Toelle, Callan and Clubb streets, there are a number of two storey townhouses and infill development that have been developed post the 1970s. The streets are characterised primarily by modest development, consisting of mainly cottages with a tight development pattern and limited building setbacks.
Tree cover across the LCZ is varied. Most mature trees are located in the lower valley with a canopy of trees evident when viewed from higher slopes. Mature trees located within Callan Park form a distinct back drop to the lower areas within the precinct and along parts of Manning Street. Wider streets such as Clubb and Moodie, feature street trees and most front yards throughout the neighbourhood have vegetation, which adds to streetscape amenity. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-20 and shown on Figure 5-77. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage items located within this LCZ.

LCZ 25 – Sydney College of the Arts precinct This primary land use within this LCZ is the Sydney College of the Arts (SCA) which is housed within the heritage listed Kirkbride complex; a cluster of sandstone buildings established in the late 19th century (see Figure 5-81). Gary Owen House, built in the 1840s and the current location of the NSW Writers Centre, is also located within the LCZ towards its southern end and is surrounded by a number of more recent (1970s/1980s) buildings which are largely unused.
The LCZ topography generally rises from the northern and western boundary, up to Balmain Road on the south-eastern boundary. Parts of the site are relatively steep, particularly the eastern edge; however, there is an extensive network of paths and that enable access to all areas. There are also parts of the site that are level, particularly in the areas near to existing buildings and the land near Balmain Road which is used as a sports field.
The topography of the site allows for views towards Drummoyne and the areas around Victoria Road to the north of Darling Street (see Figure 5-82). There are also allows views from surrounding areas to the site with particular features such as the tower at the Kirkbride complex (see Figure 5-81), highly visible above the tree canopy from surrounding areas to the north and north east.
The LCZ provides a significant level of amenity to the surrounding residential properties. The interface between the LCZ and the dwellings located adjacent to it and those which have views to it, contributes significantly to the character of the residential streets and provides important streetscape values to the locality. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-21 and shown on Figure 5-83. Registered aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-22 and shown on Figure 5-83.

LCZ 26 – Darling Street precinct This LCZ is characterised by a vibrant mix of restaurants, retail shops, community facilities and commercial enterprises (see Figure 5-84). The character of buildings located south-west of Victoria Road has remained largely unchanged and has an established two storey scale (with the inclusion of the occasional larger building). The predominant style of buildings is traditional shop–top housing. The architectural style is mostly late Victorian with some early 1900s Federation styled buildings.
On the north-eastern side of Victoria Road, the scale of the buildings increases to three and four storeys with tall parapets. The church buildings which include Chapel Hill Rozelle Presbyterian and Darling Street Anglican Church St Thomas’ are dominant features within the streetscape.
The setbacks for commercial sites in the neighbourhood are generally nil, while houses, public buildings and churches have varied setbacks. Most shops have full width suspended awnings, and several buildings have restored or reconstructed the traditional posted verandas over the footpath. Restoration work within the neighbourhood has added a traditional element to the streetscape and is generally encouraged as part of the renewal of commercial activity along Darling Street.
The area is characterised by the emergence of numerous restaurants/cafes and takeaway shops as well as ‘lifestyle’ boutiques. This character is most notable in the leisure retail strip to the north east of Victoria Road.
There are several street trees within the area and mature trees are located within the Rozelle Public School on the north-eastern side of Victoria Road. The area around the school currently hosts the weekend Rozelle Markets, which has broader community patronage. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-23 and shown on Figure 5-85. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

5.3.4 Southern landscape character zones (St Peters interchange) This section describes the existing character of the seven LCZs (see Figure 5-87) associated with the St Peters interchange.
LCZ 27 – Sydney Park precinct This LCZ comprises a regionally significant park (Sydney Park) located north of Campbell Road. The park topographically comprises a series of constructed landforms and wetlands, which are part of the remediation of the site from a former landfill (see Figure 5-86).
The park is characterised by a series of visually prominent hills with panoramic views of the city skyline and Sydney Airport. There are also large open turfed areas and stormwater detention ponds, which have been transformed into wetland habitat. The park is fringed with mature trees and screening vegetation.
Facilities within the park include a sports oval, walking paths, BBQs, picnic facilities, seating, public toilets, a playground, and educational elements such as the water sensitive urban design initiatives. Due to the density of the surrounding residential area, this recreational space is highly used and valued by the local community. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-24 and shown on Figure 5-88.There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within the LCZ.

LCZ 29 – Alexandra Canal industrial precinct This LCZ is an active industrial corridor on the eastern side of Burrows Road, which backs onto the Alexandra Canal (see Figure 5-91). Alexandra Canal was originally a natural tributary of the Cooks River (Shea’s Creek) but was realigned and channelised in 1880s-1890s. It has a strong historic link to early industrial development in the St Peters and Alexandria area.
The LCZ is characterised by large, low lying industrial buildings and sheds with open areas between them for private car parking and truck loading facilities. The buildings front the main roads (namely Burrows Road and Euston Road), and intermittent views can be seen between these large, long buildings to the canal. There are mature trees along both Euston Road and Burrows Road. Some lots are used as storage areas for large shipping containers, which visually tie these industrial lots to the canal and its history as an active shipping corridor.
Three isolated sites with commercial and industrial uses are located on the western side of Euston Road adjoining Sydney Park. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-26 and shown on Figure 5-92. Registered Aboriginal heritage items are listed in Table 5-27 and shown on Figure 5-92.

Figure 5-92 LCZ 29 Alexandra Canal industrial precinct 124
LCZ 30 – Barwon Park precinct This LCZ is characterised by remnants of earlier residential use in the area, and light industrial and commercial uses that have evolved over time. This has resulted in a mix of building types and forms.
The land subdivision pattern along Barwon Park Road varies from medium size allotments at the northern end that are industrial or commercial in use, to smaller blocks south of the intersection with Crown Street, some of which are residential and others commercial. At the juncture of Barwon Park Road with Campbell Road (adjacent to the project site) is a block of part three and four storey apartments which would afford angled views toward to project (see Figure 5-93). The apartments are south east oriented and overlook Sydney Park with some oblique views to the project site. The outlook to Sydney Park along Barwon Park Road offers pleasant vistas, although this is interrupted in part by the City of Sydney Council works depot.
Campbell Street is a busy thoroughfare with frequent truck movements. It is fronted by a mix of residential terraces and villas, and the blank sidewalls of commercial/industrial uses fronting Princes Highway and Crown Street. Campbell Street will be widened along its southern side as part of surface road upgrades delivered by the New M5 project.
The Crown Street streetscape is the most intact of the precinct, consisting of older housing stock on relatively small allotments (albeit with some mixed commercial intrusion), as shown in Figure 5-94.
Mature street trees and gardens add to the established character of this area. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage There are no non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas or heritage items or registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.

Figure 5-95 LCZ 30 Barwon Park residential precinct 126
LCZ 31 – Princes Highway precinct The Princes Highway precinct comprises a strong linear transport corridor broadly following a low ridgeline, and characterised by active retail, light industrial and commercial development. It is of utilitarian character with limited scenic amenity (see Figure 5-96). Commercial complexes comprise fast food chains, a hotel and small factory complexes with internal courtyards and limited mature street trees.
Views are visually confined within the road corridor, predominantly due to built form on either side of the road. Intermittent views can be seen to the landscape beyond the fringing development along perpendicular roads and through gaps between buildings and commercial complexes.
Adjoining the Princes Highway road corridor is an active business and commercial corridor. The heritage listed St Peters Anglican Church sits on a natural high point and is the only area that contains substantial tree cover along this part of the corridor. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage Non-Aboriginal heritage conservation areas and heritage items located within this LCZ are listed in Table 5-28 and shown on Figure 5-97. There are no registered Aboriginal heritage sites located within this LCZ.
