    The City of Sydney City Planning, Urban Design and Planning, CVUT. Seminar Work by Phoebe Ford. LOCATION The City of Sydney, by M.S. Hill, 1888. State Library of New South Wales. Regional Relations The New South Wales Government conceptualises Sydney as ‘a city of cities’ comprising: The Central Business District (CBD) which is within the City of Sydney Local Government Area (LGA), the topic of my presentation, and North Sydney, which make up ‘Global Sydney’, and the regional cities of Parramatta, Liverpool and Penrith. This planning concept applies the Marchetti principle which aims to create a fair and efficient city which offers jobs closer to homes, less travel time and less reliance on a single CBD to generate employment. The concept is that cities should be supported by major and specialized centres which concentrate housing, commercial activity and local services within a transport and economic network. Walking catchment centres along rail and public transport corridors ‘One-hour Cities’ of the Greater Metropolitan Region of Sydney Sydney’s sub-regions and local government areas Inner Sydney Regional Context City of Sydney Local Government Area Importance Within Broader Context of the Settlements Network • Over the last 20 years, ‘the Global Economic Corridor’ - the concentration of jobs and infrastructure from Macquarie Park through Chatswood, St Leonards, North Sydney and the CBD to Sydney Airport and Port Botany- has emerged as a feature of Sydney and Australia's economy. • The corridor has been built on the benefits that businesses involved in areas such as finance, legal services, information technology, engineering and marketing have derived from being near to each other and to transport infrastructure such as the airport.

  • Heritage Impact Statement Accompanies a Technical Package to Inform the Preparation of a Self-Repealing SEPP for the Western Gateway Sub-Precinct
    HERITAGE IMPACT STATEMENT Former Inwards Parcels Shed Nos 8–10 Lee Street, Sydney October 2019 | J3201 Level 19, 100 William Street, Sydney, NSW 2011 Phone: (02) 8076 5317 1 Executive Summary This Heritage Impact Statement accompanies a technical package to inform the preparation of a self-repealing SEPP for the Western Gateway Sub-precinct. The SEPP will amend the Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012 (SLEP 2012) changing the building height and floor space ratio development standards and land use zoning for the part of Lot 118 in DP 1078271 which apply to the site at 8-10 Lee Street, Haymarket (Block A or the Site). Block A is within the Western Gateway Precinct, which is a sub precinct of the Central State Significant Precinct (Central SSP), which was declared by the NSW Government on 12 July 2019. The Western Gateway sub-precinct will form the first stage of rezoning for the Central Precinct. The Planning Statements will inform the preparation of a self-repealing SEPP for the Western Gateway Sub-precinct including the amendments outlined in the documentation prepared for Block A. The intended outcome of the self-repealing SEPP is to create Australia’s first ‘Innovation Precinct’ adjacent to Sydney’s Central Railway Station, by introducing new built form controls for Block A to support the development of an iconic commercial office tower for the new global headquarters of Atlassian (who would anchor, grow and nurture the Precinct), a re- imagined improved YHA tourism accommodation the adaptive re-use of the Former Inwards Parcels Shed, and a range of spaces for local and emerging tech/start-up companies to thrive.

  • Western Gateway Public Domain Strategy
    WESTERN GATEWAY SUB-PRECINCT PUBLIC DOMAIN STRATEGY Prepared by Hassell + Aspect Studios for Dexus / Frasers / Atlassian + TfNSW May 2020 Acknowledgement of Country The Western Gateway sub-precinct applicants respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners and custodians of the land within Central Precinct, the Gadigal of the Eora Nation, and recognises the importance of this place to all Aboriginal people. The Western Gateway sub-precinct applicants pay their respect to Elders past, present and emerging. 2 Western Gateway Sub-precinct Public Domain Strategy Western Gateway The site has a unique character that draws on its location within Sydney’s Central Station precinct, the legacy of the station heritage and cultural values, and its fusion with the topography of the adjacent landform and landscape conditions. The public domain will draw on this distinctive local character, and explore opportunities to create authentic places grounded by the relationships between circulation, landscape features and architecture to enrich this significant and unique part of the city. 3 INTRODUCTION Public Domain Strategy The Public Domain Strategy defines a unified strategy for the public domain for the Western Gateway sub-precinct. The strategy forms part of a response to submissions that have been received. The Public Domain Strategy demonstrates a commitment to creating a place that is wholly connected to the wider Central Precinct. The strategy represents a partnership of interested parties to ensure a precinct that is high quality, activated and

It was just the right mix of a two-week camping safari and travel by ourselves. We had the big animal photography, amazing scenery, travel with a good friend from uni days, as well as encounters with people from lots of different cultural groups. For us it was not only a break from our daily life in Redfern but also an opportunity to see some similarities and contrasts between our community and those in very different places. We visited the Cradle of Humankind world heritage site, north of Johannesburg where our common human ancestors lived more than three million years ago. We climbed through one of the Sterkfontein Caves, where the fossil remains of a human ancestor Australopithecus africanus were found in 1947. The visitors’ centre Maropeng, which means “returning to the place of origin” in Setswana, the main local indigenous language, is an engaging mix of theme park ride and museum. You travel down a dark bumpy tunnel in an inflatable raft back in time to the Big Bang, to emerge into a large light-filled interactive museum with a similar feel to the Questacon National Science and Technology Centre in Canberra. It explores genetic diversity and evolution linking the Out of Africa story of humanity with the fossil finds in this archeologically rich part of South Africa.

    Draft Strategic Vision for the Central State Significant Precinct (SSP) Department of Planning, Industry and Environment Submission ID: 68186 Number: 1 Confidentiality Requested:Yes Date Received: 16/10/2019 9:57:00 AM From: Withheld Submission: I think this area should become an extension of the City, with lots more jobs based around Central. It is already a great transportation hub and it should live up to its name... Central, the real centre of Sydney with high density of offices, entertainment (which is currently missing), shopping and food / drinks places. There is currently so much ‘dead’ space around Central Station, unused. It also needs better pedestrian connections from chippendale to surry hills. It could be the new high rise hub, with hieghts of buildings finally able to compete with Melbourne!

We have over 450 members and would love the opportunity to share our ideas and give you a tour of our space to help shape the precinct. We would also be interested in helping run part of the precincts coworking space. Open to a tradi- tional lease or even a management agreement.
