One of Australia’s largest privately-initiated urban renewal projects has been placed on public exhibition by Liverpool City Council.
Liverpool Mayor Ned Mannoun said the proposed multi-billion-dollar mixed-use master planned precinct would transform Liverpool.
“This is a long-awaited stage in what has been and will be a long development approval process, due to the massive size of what is being undertaken.
“Visionary developments like this are city shaping opportunities and Liverpool City Council will work with the Proponent to make sure the city gets the added benefits a transformation of this scale should deliver.
“The project is on exhibition until 25 November 2024 and we encourage our community and interested stakeholders to have their say by lodging a submission here,” he said.
The purpose of the Planning Proposal is to facilitate the development of a 31.4 hectare mixed-use Precinct – the equivalent of around 43 football fields.
The Planning Proposal was lodged by Coronation Property and Leamac Property Group (the Joint Landowner Group) in 2020, which seeks to rezone an industrial zone at Moore Point, Moorebank, and redevelop into a high-density, mixed-use precinct.
The Master Plan will be delivered in three stages over an anticipated delivery timeline of between 30 and 40 years, with around 40% of dwellings to be delivered in the first stage.
The Precinct is expected to include:
- Approximately 11,000 dwellings, with a potential future population of 21,000.
- Approximately 346,000sqm of commercial and retail floor space, including:
- 160,000m² of new commercial office floor space, equivalent to approximately 50% of the existing floor space in the Liverpool CBD.
- 167,000m2 of new retail floor space (shops, hospitality, supermarkets and events/showrooms) – approximately twice the floor space of the existing Westfield Shopping Centre in Liverpool.
- A primary school for up to 1,000 students, with potential for a second primary school.
- 10 hectares of public space, including a rejuvenated Georges River foreshore and a central park.
- Pedestrian bridges connecting to the Liverpool CBD.
- Identify an area with existing buildings as a heritage item to create a ‘Heritage quarter’ with the adaptive re-use of significant industrial buildings.
During the exhibition period, Council will also be consulting with all relevant NSW Government Agencies in relation to transport, flooding, school provision, health infrastructure, and environmental protection.
Once consultation has occurred, all submissions will be reported to a future Meeting of Council for consideration.
