Billbergia has topped out Peake Tower, part of the second stage of its $2.5 billion Rhodes Central masterplan.

The 48-level Peake Tower is the tallest building in Rhodes, one of five in Rhodes Central that will deliver 3,500 new homes to Sydney's critically undersupplied housing market.

Stage two comprises a combined total of 674 apartments across two high-rise buildings, Peake Tower and Oasis. It will also see the delivery of $70 million in new community infrastructure - including a 9,100 sqm multipurpose community recreation and childcare centre - built in the precinct’s three-level podium through a planning agreement with City of Canada Bay. 

 

“We are delighted to have reached this exciting milestone on Peake Tower, a critical step towards the completion of this new waterfront precinct at Rhodes," Rick Graf, Billbergia Development Director, said

"Our vision of creating a highly-connected new community is fast becoming a reality,” said Rick Graf, Development Director at Billbergia."

Located at 34 Walker Street, Peake Tower and Oasis were designed by high-profile architects SJB

Rhodes Central’s Stage One comprises a total of 568 apartments across two buildings of 25 and 39 storeys. The towers sit above the award-winning, 13,000 sqm Rhodes Central super neighbourhood shopping centre, delivered by Billbergia in 2021.  

A significant employment generator, some 10,000 direct and indirect jobs have been created to date by the construction of Rhodes Central, with at least a further 450 permanent jobs within the completed precinct. 

Progressive completion of Peake Tower is due in Q3 2024.
