Green Square Town Centre

The Green Square Town Centre is a significant urban renewal project for the City of Sydney and the New South Wales State Government. It involves the renewal of 14 hectares of multiple ownership industrial sites into a major town centre strategically located on the City-Airport corridor.

The Town Centre will provide approximately 410,000sqm of new residential, commercial and retail development, and accommodate approximately 5,500 new residents and 7,000 workers.

The first stage of renewal involves the design and implementation of infrastructure and public domain. The new streets, plazas, parks and underground services will support the roll-out of private development and create a vibrant town centre for the new community of residents and workers. Environmental sustainability is a key objective for the City and Landcom.

Landcom has engaged Cadence Australia to provide project management services for the delivery of the infrastructure and public domain development consents, anticipated in late 2008. Cadence Australia's role includes complex client and stakeholder liaison, management of consultant teams, and various levels of project reporting.

Penrith Lakes Development
Penrith

The Penrith Lakes Development site is approximately 1935 hectares in area and is located on the eastern bank of the Nepean River. It lies about 3km to the north of the Penrith Town Centre, bounded by the Nepean River.

For a period of around 50 years the site has been operating primarily as a mining site, processing raw material such as gravel and sand from 3 shareholders, namely Boral, Readymix and Hanson. Collectively they form the Penrith Lakes Development Corporation (PLDC).

As the quarry operations draw to a close, the site is being progressively rehabilitated to form a series of lakes in accordance with the previous Development Consents. Part of the main lake is formed and partially filled with water, whilst the balance of the site is progressively being remediated to form a suitable residential landform.

The Joint Venture’s proposed $2 billion development will include state of the art recreational and urban development. The concept plan reveals an integrated site design incorporating significant recreational precincts (800ha of parklands and 700ha of lakes) ranging from active engagement to passive wilderness with interwoven residential ‘villages’ occupying 20% of the total site. The number of dwellings will be approximately 2,541 and are scheduled to be complete by 2033.

Cadence Australia is currently working with the PLDC and the project team reviewing the cost plan in relation to design and methodology for the proposed project feasibility.
