On six hectares of a global city, Frasers Property is planning a high quality, sustainable, mixed use development including apartments, offices, shops, restaurants and open space. Underpinning this project will be exemplary social and environmental sustainability initiatives to create a people-centred, new destination for Sydney.
Key features of the Frasers Broadway development include:
• |
36,000 square metres of publicly accessible open space with a new inner-city square |
• |
Two iconic buildings along Broadway by renowned international architects Jean Nouvel and Foster + Partners. This is an unparalleled investment and vote of confidence in the southern CBD |
• |
Kensington Street will be transformed into a people-centred laneway, drawing on the best of Newtown and Darlinghurst, providing a vibrant space for shops, galleries, restaurants, cafes and bars. This initiative will commence immediately with the establishment of artists’ studios on Kensington Street |
| • | Surface traffic will be markedly reduced by directing cars quickly into an integrated basement and underground road system. Sixty percent of vehicles will enter underground basements within 10 metres of the site’s perimeter |
| • | Car parks that are flexibly designed to be changed to other uses in the future, if needed |
| • | Car share schemes and integration into the inner city bicycle network |
| • | Much needed office space, with a 50:50 split of commercial areas relative to residential |
| • | Thirty-three heritage items are to be retained and restored |
| • | Retail space is consolidated in the north eastern corner of the site, creating a community-scale retail precinct. |
Buildings heights are greatest close to the City and lower towards Chippendale, mediating between the City and inner residential areas, with close attention to solar access to the main community park.
This development will be at the forefront of environmental sustainability initiatives across the country. We are striving for the highest environmental rating across the entire precinct. The site will be the largest urban development in Australia to introduce on-site tri-generation (known as ‘green transformers’) for power, heating and cooling.
