    15 October 2019 Mr Jim Betts Secretary NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment 320 Pitt Street Sydney, NSW 2000 Attention: David McNamara Director Key Sites Assessments Re: 2–60 Cumberland Street, The Rocks, Sydney (‘Sirius Site’) Request for Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements Dear Mr Betts, This letter has been prepared on behalf of Sirius Developments Pty Ltd (the Developer) to request the issue of Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (SEARs) for a proposed State Significant Development Application (SSDA) for the adaptive reuse of the existing ‘Sirius Building’, including building modifications and additions to the building, at 2–60 Cumberland Street, The Rocks, Sydney. Subject to detailed design following a design excellence competition, the site will be for the purpose of a mixed-use building including residential accommodation, commercial premises and basement car parking. Further associated works include upgrades and landscaping to Gloucester Walk and improvements to Cumberland Street. The working title for the project is ‘Sirius site’. The proposed development is classified as State Significant Development (SSD) on the basis that it falls within the requirements of Clause 6 of Schedule 2 of State Environmental Planning Policy (State and Regional Development) 2011 (SRD SEPP), being development on land identified within ‘The Rocks Site’ on the State Significant Development Sites Map with a Capital Investment Value (CIV) greater than $10 million. The SEARs will inform the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) which will accompany a future SSDA for the site, following the undertaking of a design excellence competition. The purpose of this letter is to provide a preliminary environmental assessment and other supporting documentation to request the SEARs be issued for this application.

  • From Its First Occupation by Europeans After 1788, the Steep Slopes on The
    The Rocks The Rocks is the historic neighbourhood situated on the western side of Sydney Cove. The precinct rises steeply behind George Street and the shores of West Circular Quay to the heights of Observatory Hill. It was named the Rocks by convicts who made homes there from 1788, but has a much older name, Tallawoladah, given by the first owners of this country, the Cadigal. Tallawoladah, the rocky headland of Warrane (Sydney Cove), had massive outcrops of rugged sandstone, and was covered with dry schlerophyll forest of pink-trunked angophora, blackbutt, red bloodwood and Sydney peppermint. The Cadigal probably burnt the bushland here to keep the country open. Archaeological evidence shows that they lit cooking fires high on the slopes, and shared meals of barbequed fish and shellfish. Perhaps they used the highest places for ceremonies and rituals; down below, Cadigal women fished the waters of Warrane in bark canoes.1 After the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Tallawoladah became the convicts’ side of the town. While the governor and civil personnel lived on the more orderly easterm slopes of the Tank Stream, convict women and men appropriated land on the west. Some had leases, but most did not. They built traditional vernacular houses, first of wattle and daub, with thatched roofs, later of weatherboards or rubble stone, roofed with timber shingles. They fenced off gardens and yards, established trades and businesses, built bread ovens and forges, opened shops and pubs, and raised families. They took in lodgers – the newly arrived convicts - who slept in kitchens and skillions.

  • Corridor Estates
    Corridor Estates In the 1970s, the Commission also developed a number of smaller estates along the Liverpool – Campbelltown corridor at suburbs including Macquarie Fields, Airds, Minto and Claymore. The development of these so called ‘corridor estates’ coincided with a general move away from developing the large-scale, low density estates that typified the 1950s and 60s; focus was placed instead on the development of medium density suburbs utilising the townhouses typology first used at Mount Druitt. Figure 97 – Proposals for the Macquarie Fields ‘corridor estate’, dated 1970-71 Source: The Housing Commission of New South Wales Annual Report, 1970-71, p. 24. These estates, the first being Macquarie Fields, were characterised by a smaller overall area of development, a high percentage of townhouses, and the use of the ‘Radburn’ style layout. During this time, townhouses in the ‘Radburn’ layout were also incorporated into some of the older neighbourhood estates, including Windale. URBIS SSP_WATERLOOMETROQUARTER_HERITAGEIMPACTSTATEMENT_FINAL APPENDICES (UPDATED) Micro-Estates The 1980s saw further evolution of the ‘public housing estate’ as conceived and developed from the 1940s onwards, with the Commission deciding in 1975, for the first time, to redevelop parts of its own housing stock. The principal example of this was the introduction of a micro-estate in to the established public housing at Villawood/East Fairfield; a number of earlier fibro cottages were demolished to make way for a ‘micro-estate’ planned in the ‘Radburn’ style. The cottages set on a conventional street grid were replaced with townhouses and maisonettes that faced away from the streets, had common driveways, and small private streets.
