Construction is now underway at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/cumulus-grand-villas-carrara-17-baltimore-court-carrara-qld-4211">Cumulus Grand Villas</a> in Carrara, with all stages fully funded as <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/venturecrowd-property-projects">VentureCrowd</a> progresses its 59-residence gated community on an elevated ridgeline overlooking 100 hectares of natural savanna.

The commencement marks a key milestone for the Gold Coast project, designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a> and being delivered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/devcon">Devcon Property Group</a>, at a time when buyers are placing greater emphasis on delivery certainty and builder track record.

With Devcon active in South East Queensland since 1993 and having delivered more than 1,000 homes, the team is positioning Cumulus as a fully financed, under-construction offering in a market where risk mitigation has become a central consideration for off-the-plan purchasers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360496]

Located at 17 Baltimore Court, Cumulus Grand Villas comprises 59 three- and four-bedroom villas across four collections, Skyline, Canopy, Savanna and Broadview. Pricing starts from $1,455,000, with completion of the first stage targeted for Q4 2026.

Across the four collections, each design represents an expansive and thoughtfully considered offering. The Broadview provides additional flexibility within its floorplan, incorporating a multipurpose room or optional additional bedroom, and is priced from $1,895,000.&nbsp;

Configured across two levels, the four-bedroom villas feature two master bedrooms with private ensuites, as well as a multipurpose room (MPR), supporting intergenerational living, guest accommodation, or the creation of a dedicated retreat space.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360497]

The main living areas are positioned on the ground floor, while the bedrooms are located upstairs, a configuration that promotes both family separation and connected living. All villas include a second master suite on the ground floor, reinforcing the project’s focus on flexibility and long-term adaptability.

That adaptability was central to BDA Architecture’s design approach. The team sought to create a sophisticated, low-maintenance product that makes the most of the site’s elevation and outlook while responding to evolving household needs. Expansive glazing, open-plan interiors and private outdoor areas draw in natural light and frame views towards the savanna, hinterland and Broadbeach skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360470]

VentureCrowd Director of Property David Whitting said the project responds to a growing group of buyers reassessing what premium living on the Gold Coast looks like.

Flexible floorplans have proven particularly relevant for purchasers aged between 40 and 65, including next home buyers, downsizers and investors. The inclusion of dual master suites in the Broadview design, along with options for a downstairs MPR or guest bedroom, allows homes to adapt as family dynamics shift, whether accommodating older parents, adult children, or extended stays.

Across the community, villas are specified with European appliances and premium fixtures and fittings, alongside double garages and landscaped private areas. The gated enclave includes number plate recognition entry, reinforcing a focus on security and exclusivity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360474]

Lifestyle amenity is anchored by the Infinity Terrace, an elevated communal space incorporating a 20m heated pool, alfresco zones and barbecue facilities, designed as a shared retreat within the neighbourhood. A two-acre private nature reserve with walking trails and rehabilitated bushland further integrates the development with its savanna-edge setting, reflecting a broader masterplan initiative to restore native vegetation and habitat corridors.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/carrara-qld-4211">Carrara</a>’s positioning continues to attract attention from prestige buyers seeking proximity to the coast without beachfront pricing. The suburb offers access to major retail centres including Pacific Fair and Robina Town Centre, is around 15 minutes from Broadbeach, and benefits from connectivity via the M1 to Brisbane and the Gold Coast Airport.

VentureCrowd’s Cumulus Grand Villas in Carrara advances with construction underway

Joint venture partners <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen">Abadeen</a> and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/perifa">PERIFA</a> are officially launching the third and final residential stage at their landmark $350 million harbourfront precinct, Putney Wharf, with The Residences representing the final opportunity to secure a new home within this rare waterfront destination.

Strong demand has already been established across the earlier stages of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-residences-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a>, with more than 50 per cent sold ahead of this final release. The Residences will introduce a selection of the precinct’s most premium apartments, many of which were deliberately reserved for this concluding stage.

Located at 20 Waterview Street, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/putney-nsw-2112">Putney</a> NSW, the completed precinct will comprise 67 residences, including 18 terraces and 49 apartments, alongside five retail tenancies and a 36-berth marina.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=1338]

Developed alongside partners Phoenix Property Investors and Mitsubishi Estate Asia, Putney Wharf occupies a prized 300-metre stretch of absolute waterfront and incorporates the historic former Halvorsen’s Boatshed. The precinct connects directly to surrounding parklands via a landscaped foreshore walkway and a large, landscaped podium linking both sides of the development to the adjoining foreshore parklands.

The Residences comprise two newly built, three-storey apartment buildings delivering a boutique collection of 30 generously proportioned waterfront apartments. Designed to capture harbour outlooks, natural light and cooling breezes, The Residences balance architectural refinement with relaxed, low-maintenance living.

Architecturally designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/sjb-architects">SJB</a>, the apartments continue the cohesive design language seen across the broader precinct. A refined palette of light and dark materials, softer-toned stone and neutral, earthy finishes reflect the surrounding landscape and harbour setting. Interiors feature painted timber veneers, tactile joinery, timber flooring to living spaces and 100 per cent natural wool carpets in bedrooms, creating warm and sophisticated homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362525]

Justin Brown, Executive Chairman and Founder of Abadeen, said the release of the final residential stage marks an important milestone for the project.

“Putney Wharf brings together everything we’ve learned over more than 25 years of development,” Mr Brown said. “It respects the site’s extraordinary maritime history while delivering contemporary homes that connect people directly to the harbour.

The Residences offer the rare combination of low-maintenance apartment living, waterfront outlooks with beautiful sunset views, and the convenience of retail and amenity at your doorstep. For boating enthusiasts, the opportunity to secure a private marina berth completes a truly unique Sydney harbourfront lifestyle.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=291197]

PERIFA Managing Director and Co-Founder Fabrizio Perilli added that the diversity of housing across the precinct has been central to the project’s success.

“Whether it’s the heritage Halvorsen’s apartments, the Waterview Terraces or now The Residences, Putney Wharf offers a range of homes that respond to different lifestyles, all united by an unrivalled harbourfront setting,” Perilli said. “This is a precinct that will add lasting value to the Putney community.”

Managing project marketing and sales, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/srm-residential">SRM Residential</a> Partner Tim Rees said the final release has already attracted strong demand reflecting the project’s unique harbourfront position and the success of earlier stages.

“Following the strong response to both the Halvorsen’s Boatshed residences and the Waterview Terraces, The Residences represent the final chance to secure a new home within this tightly held waterfront precinct,” Rees said. “Buyers are drawn to the rare combination of absolute harbour frontage, parkside living and genuine architectural quality.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362240]

Putney Wharf is a one-of-a-kind mixed-use destination, delivering an exclusive residential offering alongside waterfront dining, retail and a 36-berth marina designed to the latest Australian Standards, accommodating vessels up to 18 metres and helping address Sydney Harbour’s ongoing marina shortage.

The precinct will include five retail tenancies and a prominent waterfront jetty area fronting the retail village, creating an activated harbourfront destination for residents and visitors alike.

Residents will enjoy direct access to lush harbourfront parklands, a public foreshore walkway and landscaped podium gardens connecting the development to the surrounding waterfront reserve. Construction across the Putney Wharf precinct is expected to be completed by Q2 2027.

Sales of The Residences officially launch this weekend, with the display suite open Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 12pm at Putney Wharf. Visitors are invited to enjoy a complimentary coffee while touring The Residences and experiencing the Putney Wharf lifestyle firsthand.

Final Harbourfront release in Putney Wharf launches this weekend

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/draycon">Draycon Building</a> is nearing completion of Boutique Chevron Island, a 42-apartment development on the northern end of Chevron Island at 17–19 Parneno Street, with a limited-time offer of fully furnished apartments available.

Now more than 90 per cent complete, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/boutique-chevron-island-17-19-parneno-chevron-island-qld-4217">Boutique</a> has been shaped by one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held island addresses, where riverfront outlooks and walkable access to Surfers Paradise converge.

For Draycon Building Managing Director Howard Dabit, the appeal of the site was immediate.

“I knew it was a good site as soon as I saw it,” Dabit said.

“The position and location on the north end of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a>, the way the river swirls around the site basically from the north to the east, it feels like the site is surrounded by the water. The height that we’ve got and the aspect looking north is beautiful. Eighty per cent of the apartments are looking north so they get that drenching sunlight coming in.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360922]

That northern orientation places the development within a stretch of Chevron Island defined by open river aspects and skyline views, while remaining embedded in the suburb’s established village setting.

Chevron Island has increasingly drawn owner-occupiers seeking centrality without the intensity of high-rise beachfront living. Positioned at the geographical centre of the Gold Coast, the island offers direct access to both the beach and key cultural infrastructure while retaining a neighbourhood-scale character.

Connected by bridge to Surfers Paradise, Chevron Island offers walkable access to beaches, riverfront parklands and a revitalised foreshore boulevard animated by walkers and cyclists throughout the day. The Pacific Ocean is only minutes away, reinforcing the suburb’s dual river-and-surf identity.

At the same time, Thomas Drive forms the spine of the island’s village life, delivering cafés, wine bars, casual dining and everyday services within easy reach. Independent grocers, wellness operators and neighbourhood retailers contribute to a community atmosphere that remains distinct from the vertical scale of the beachfront.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360915]

In the opposite direction, the Green Bridge links directly to HOTA – Home of the Arts – placing galleries, performance venues and parklands within walking distance. Weekly markets and major exhibitions draw visitors from across the region, while residents return to a quieter residential pocket at day’s end.

Public transport, including nearby bus routes and the G:link light rail corridor along the coastal spine, strengthens connectivity north and south. Griffith University, the Gold Coast University Hospital precinct and established private schools such as The Southport School are all within a short drive.

Ongoing investment across Surfers Paradise, HOTA and the broader Southport corridor has elevated amenity while preserving Chevron Island’s comparatively low-rise residential character. It is this balance, walkable village atmosphere paired with metropolitan-scale infrastructure, that continues to differentiate the suburb from higher-density beachfront precincts.

Boutique comprises just 42 residences, designed to maximise river and skyline outlooks within this tightly held island setting.

Boutique Chevron Island is slated for completion in April 2026, with prices starting from $1,220,000.

Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> has secured planning approval for a $300 million residential development in Lindfield, marking the company’s second project on Sydney’s North Shore and its first on the Upper North Shore.

Located on Beaconsfield Parade and designed by DKO Architecture, the state significant development comprises three buildings of up to 10 storeys and will include 399 residences, including 59 affordable homes and 40 adaptable homes.

Residences will range in size from one, two and three bedrooms, with two-bedroom apartments accounting for over 60 per cent of the product make-up. Residents will have access to a broad suite of amenities, including a wellness area, indoor and outdoor recreational spaces, a pool, a gym, a community room and a golf simulator.

In line with Deicorp’s long-standing focus on creating transit-oriented communities, the project is located just 260 metres from the Lindfield Train Station, reinforcing its role in delivering well-connected housing close to established infrastructure, retail and local services.

The inclusion of affordable and adaptable housing supports greater diversity within the local market, while the mix of apartment types responds to demand from downsizers, young professionals and families seeking access to the Upper North Shore.

Deicorp Founder Fouad Deiri OAM said the approval represents an important milestone for both the company and the suburb

“This approval allows us to deliver well-designed homes in a location that is already supported by strong transport and community infrastructure," Deiri said.

"Our focus is on creating places that integrate into their surroundings and provide long-term value for residents, and the broader Lindfield community. Being within walking distance of the station ensures this project supports sustainable growth in the right locations."

Across its portfolio, Deicorp currently has 4,703 apartments under construction, playing a leading role in shaping connected, liveable communities across Sydney.

Its expanding portfolio of Metro-linked developments includes Tallawong Village, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kings-bay-village-five-dock-53-75-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">Kings Bay Village</a> in Five Dock, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hyde-metropolitan-sydney-133-141-liverpool-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Hyde Metropolitan</a> in Sydney CBD, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/falcon-alexander-crows-nest-8-alexander-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Falcon &amp; Alexander</a> in Crows Nest and Showground Village, Castle Hill.

Deicorp purchased the Beaconsfield Paradise site last year. Construction is scheduled to commence in Q2 of 2026 and will be completed in 2029.

Alexandria

Property developer, HPG Australia (HPG) has reached a mutually acceptable agreement with the City of Sydney Council in the NSW Land and Environment Court with the outcome allowing the developer to proceed with its $700 million mixed-use development, One Sydney Park.

The talked about development,&nbsp;at 205-225 Euston Road in Alexandria, essentially within the 44-hectare Sydney Park was originally approved by the City&rsquo;s Central Sydney Planning Committee in 2017, however the City of Sydney had rejected the scheme in 2020 stating that it would negatively impact on Sydney Park and that it felt the detailed plans &ldquo;differed greatly&rdquo; from the original concept.

Designed by MHN Design Union (MHNDU), Silvester Fuller (SF) and Sue Barnsley Design, with interiors curated by Tracy Wiles - previously head of interiors with Make Architects -&nbsp;the One Sydney Park project, to be built on the south-eastern edge of Sydney Park, on land formerly owned by Goodman, was previously intended to house 390 apartments and a range of commercial and cultural uses across eight, six-storey buildings.

<a href="/new-apartments/one-sydney-park-215-euston-road-alexandria"><img alt="" height="1096" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-06_at_10.44.17_am.png" width="1624" /></a>

HPG appealed the decision on the grounds that the detailed designs for the site complied with Council&rsquo;s planning parameters and met all the recommendations set by the City&rsquo;s own design competition panel, who had unanimously endorsed the MHNDU + SF &amp; Sue Barnsley submission.

The latest version of the proposal, submitted to both the NSW Land and Environment Court and the City of Sydney, reduced the number of apartments to 356.

The building mass is pushed back from the park and the perceived overall height of the buildings is decreased with planting and landscape screening the upper levels.

There is also a &ldquo;greatly increased&rdquo; setback to the upper levels of each park-side building, with the greatest setback achieved in the northern most park-side building, &ldquo;where visual sensitivity is at its highest.&rdquo;

<a href="/new-apartments/one-sydney-park-215-euston-road-alexandria"><img alt="" height="1094" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-06_at_10.44.23_am.png" width="1648" /></a>

The architects stated in the proposal that their vision is to create a place that resonates and extends the ecology of the adjoining parkland.

&ldquo;A blurring of the boundary between built form and the park landscape is achieved by dissolving the built edges of the apartment buildings fronting the park,&rdquo; the architects note.

&ldquo;Where adjacent to the parklands, or visible above the existing trees, the building form takes on a deliberately de-materialised quality. The mass of the building is intentionally blurred, emulating the character of the surrounding tree canopies.&rdquo;

Primely positioned bordering the iconic Sydney Park, the third largest park in inner-city Sydney, One Sydney Park, the first limited release of apartments was launched to the market in March 2018, attracting strong interest from buyers and generated record sales for the suburb.

<a href="/new-apartments/one-sydney-park-215-euston-road-alexandria"><img alt="" height="1088" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-06_at_10.44.29_am.png" width="1762" /></a>

Development Director for HPG Australia Barney Oros expected to appoint a construction company and commence site works before the end of the year.

&ldquo;We have deliberately stayed under the radar since launch and the Court process commenced, but now that we have planning certainty we are looking forward to communicating with the wider community the significant benefits we will be bringing to a disused industrial park,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;Obviously the architecture and landscaping is world class but the ecological benefits, introduction of deep soil into the site, long overdue amenities to this neglected southern end of Sydney Park for the public are all part of our vision for One Sydney Park,&rdquo; Oros said.

HPG has also announced a collaboration with&nbsp;world renown&nbsp;Japanese artist, Fujiko Nakaya who will be engaged to deliver a public art installation unlike any other in Sydney. Having gained international acclaim for her work with ephemeral fog sculptures, the proposed public art will provide a sensory transition between Sydney Park and the public plaza within the development.&nbsp;

HPG Australia reaches negotiated settlement with City of Sydney Council on landmark court case

Alexandria is set for a modern six-storey, mixed-use development on the busy Botany Road.

The $6.9 million project at 650 Botany Road has been submitted to council by the design, construction and development group Orisi, on behalf of private developer Michael Dalah.

There will be two&nbsp;ground level commercial tenancy, and five levels above homing just 20 apartments, just four one-bedroom apartments per floor. Some have living space up to 80 sqm.

The two commercial tenancy spaces will be positioned on either side of the residences at the ground floor.

<img alt="" height="830" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-04_at_8.46.12_am.png" width="812" />

The project will be finished with a white render, blending with the&nbsp;frameless glass balustrades and white powder-coated metal.

Balconies extend to the eastern and western facades, embellished with landscaping by Conzept Landscape Architects.

Breaking up the form, a staircase extending the six-floors is centrally located, leading foot traffic&nbsp;to the communal and expansive garden space. The staircase will also serve as a buffer, creating an extended level of space and distance between each residence.

Located just 200 metres walking distance north of Gardeners Road, the locality is undergoing quite a transformation, with a shift from the older style warehouse and commercial activities, into a mixed use location with residential components.

The site is well serviced by public transport options with regular bus services towards Central Station via Green Square and further buses towards Mascot, Botany, Redfern Kingsford and Marrickville.

The developers have lodged plans for a 20 unit mixed-use development on Botany Road. 

Boutique mixed-use development set for Sydney's Alexandria

Construction has commenced on the&nbsp;industrial Alex Collective apartments, in the heart of Sydney&#39;s inner-city suburb of Alexandria.

It&#39;s being developed by Alexa Development and built by Ceerose, who has just commenced construction on the four striking buildings designed by Andrew Burns.

They will home 163 apartments, taking design influences from the industrial suburb and featuring intricate brickwork, saw-tooth roofs, light wells and sky bridges.

Central to the four buildings which will reach&nbsp;four, seven, and eight storeys, is a garden designed by landscape architecture Site Image Group. There will be cabana-styled seating flanked by a magnesium pool.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29785 project_image_fid=91611]

Edward Doueihi, Managing Director of Ceerose, says the start of construction is an important milestone for Alex Collective and will add to Ceerose&rsquo;s impressive building portfolio.

&quot;We are delighted to bring this industrial inspired residential development to life. Andrew Burns&rsquo; intuitive design for Alex Collective with pattern brickwork and metallic cladding will further enhance the striking facade. Hundreds of jobs will be created during construction which will help the economy as we move out of lockdown.&rdquo;

The start of construction co-insides with the launch of Alex Collective&rsquo;s third building Cooper, a new collection of apartments and penthouses.

Daniel McMahon, Director of&nbsp;Residential at Colliers, says the market remains strong for high-quality apartments situated on Sydney&rsquo;s city fringe.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29785 project_image_fid=91571]

&quot;Stock is very low in the Inner West which has driven sales in Alex Collective. The project has had consistent sales results during the Sydney lockdown.&quot;

Over 70 per cent of the apartments in Cooper have sold since being launched in early September.

&ldquo;The release of Cooper is proof that demand continues for quality product in key Sydney locations,&quot; McMahon adds.

&quot;Alexandria has always been a highly sought-after location with its unique terraces, warehouse style apartments and heritage homes in a historic industrial-aged setting.&quot;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29785 project_image_fid=91605]

Over the past 12 months property prices in Alexandria have grown almost 7.05 per cent according to CoreLogic, a trend which McMahon says&nbsp;is expected to continue with significant infrastructure investment in neighbouring suburbs.

There will be&nbsp;expansive views on the upper levels of Cooper, towards the city skyline.

Prices start at $775,000 for a one-bedroom apartments, $1,155,000 for a two-bedroom apartment, and $1.75 million for the three bedders, which offer nearly 120 sqm of space.

Construction starts on the industrial-inspired Alexandria apartment development, Alex Collective

Birmingham, one of the boutique building&#39;s in Alexandria&#39;s Alex Collective in inner-Sydney, saw stellar sales at its launch at the weekend.

Around 40 per cent of the 46 apartments available sold through Colliers, with sales ranging from $770,000 to $2.1 million.

Owner-occupiers were the keenest of buyers, Colliers director of residential Daniel McMahon says.

&quot;Alex Collective&rsquo;s distinctive design features including intricate brick fa&ccedil;ade, large bay windows, environmentally-friendly features and recreational amenity have captured the attention of owner occupiers.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29785 project_image_fid=91611]

&quot;Buyers have recognised that alternative product in the market does not match the premium quality of Alex Collective&rsquo;s apartments.

&quot;Discerning purchasers are looking for a city-fringe apartment that is within easy reach of the CBD and also boasts a lifestyle that is social and active.

The apartments are part of The Birmingham, one of four apartments buildings that make up the 163-apartment development&nbsp;Alex Collective at 163-173 McEvoy Street, created in partnership between Ceerose and Alexa Development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29785 project_image_fid=91571]

Designed by architect Andrew Burns, The Birmingham features saw-tooth roofs, light wells and sky bridges.

McMahon says there&nbsp;is limited availability of quality apartments currently available for purchase around the city fringe.

&quot;Alexandria has always been a highly sought-after location with strong demand for warehouse style apartments in this historical industrial-aged location.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29785 project_image_fid=91605]

&quot;Price growth in some areas of the suburb have witnessed a 15 per cent growth surge within the last 12 months, which will only continue with infrastructure investment that is planned in the area.

&nbsp;&ldquo;Projects that offer a high-quality product in tightly held locations, supported by developers and builders with a strong track record of delivering quality developments are achieving strong sales results. Ceerose has ticked all these boxes with Alex Collective, which is resulting in consistent sales each week.&quot;

The upper level residences in Birmingham will have views toward the city skyline, Sydney Park and Alexandria&#39;s streetscapes. There are a number of private courtyard apartments, oriented to the north to maximise sunlight.

Edward Doueihi, Managing Director of Ceerose, says Alex Collective links Alexandria&nbsp;across a century of change.

&quot;The boutique development will deliver beautiful tailor-made homes with an industrial spirit, created with discerning owner-occupiers in mind.

&quot;Ceerose aims to create a benchmark for Alexandria and leave a legacy for the suburb and future generations.&rdquo;

Equinix, a global interconnection and data centre company, has announced the opening of its eighth International Business Exchange data centre in Sydney. The complex will be named SY5. 
With an initial investment of US$160 million (A$224 million), the South Sydney facility will be the largest to date for the company in Australia. 
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2019/11/15/sy5%202.jpeg" alt="">
Supporting Equinix to formally open and celebrate this milestone was Federal Member of Parliament for the seat of Kingsford Smith and the Shadow Assistant Minister for Financial Services &amp; Shadow Assistant Minister for the Republic, the Hon. Matt Thistlethwaite MP. 
“Equinix is committed to continuously evolving our services to interconnect our customers at the digital edge, a critical part of digital transformation efforts of many enterprises, cloud providers and network providers,” said the President of Equinix Asia-Pacific, Jeremy Deutsch. 
A recent report commissioned by CSIRO’s Data61, the data and digital specialist data sciences arm of Australia’s national science agency, reveals digital transformation is forecast to be worth A$315 billion for the Australian economy throughout the next decade.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2019/11/15/sy5%203.jpeg" alt="">
Interconnection is critical to enabling digital businesses according to the Global Interconnection Index (GXI) Volume 3, an annual market study published by Equinix, which predicts Sydney’s private connectivity at the edge will grow by 49% annually to 2022. 
It is located in Alexandria, about four kilometres from Sydney’s central business district, and offers an initial capacity of 1,825 cabinets.
SY5 is the eighth data centre for Equinix in Sydney, and the sixteenth in Australia (with other sites in Melbourne, Perth, Canberra, Adelaide and Brisbane).
