Toohey Miller greenlit for Liverpool Street, Darlinghurst apartment development
The City of Sydney has approved the development application for Toohey Miller's new apartment project on Liverpool Street, Darlinghurst.
The development will deliver 14 two and three-bedroom units to the market, marking the second collaboration between Toohey Miller and renowned architectural firm Woods Bagot.
The seven-storey building on a 685 sqm site at 379 Liverpool Street will sit in the heritage-rich environment of Darlinghurst and will offer panoramic views of the Sydney skyline, including landmarks such as the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House.
The project aims to integrate seamlessly with the architectural character of the area, drawing on the heritage fabric of the surrounding streetscape.
Two apartments will sit across each floor, spanning from 95 sqm to 150 sqm, with the level six apartments benefiting from a private rooftop terrace with a plunge pool and seating.
In keeping with surrounding roof terraces, the proposal celebrates the crowning space with a communal resident’s space, complete with dining and seating space in addition to the covered amenity space across the ground level.
The building palette is derived from the site through native planting, sandstone materiality, and detailing reminiscent of the original buildings that surround it. Dangar Barin Smith is handling the landscaping.
It's been two application approvals in two weeks for Toohey Miller, led by Nick Couloumbis. Earlier this month they got the green light for their boutique Elizabeth Bay apartment development, Barncleuth Square. That will have just 10 large owner-occupier apartments designed by SJB with views over Ruushcutters Bay.
It follows on from Toohey Miller's debut Elizabeth Bay project, No.1 Onslow Ave, which is now under construction.
