Sydney’s inner south will be transformed under a City of Sydney plan to raise building heights along Botany Road, boosting the number of towers and opening the corridor to billions of dollars of commercial investment.
“South Sydney is an amazing part of our city, rich with Indigenous and industrial histories – we are introducing new planning controls to ensure the area reaches its potential and thrives into the future,” Cr Moore said. The proposal would raise building heights at the Redfern end of Botany Road, opposite the future Metro station.Under the Botany Road precinct plans, blocks on Redfern’s Rosehill Street could reach 17 storeys, or 70 metres, up from the two-to-six storey buildings that predominate on the stretch from the station to McEvoy Street.
Building heights will mostly increase to create a mid-rise precinct, boosting office space, with blocks up to 60 metres.as a future art, cultural and entertainment area with possible 24-hour trading. He said more social housing for local Indigenous people was required in addition to affordable housing for low-income workers.
