A long-awaited transformation of a former industrial site in Holroyd has been given the green light, with the NSW Government approving the $1.2 billion Crescent Parklands masterplan that will deliver more than 1,200 new homes just south of Parramatta.

The State Significant Development approval clears the way for a large-scale mixed-use precinct at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/1-crescent-street-holroyd-nsw-2142">1 Crescent Street</a>, replacing an underutilised site with a coordinated residential community anchored by new open space, retail, and commercial uses.

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a> for WA-based developer Tiberius, the approved scheme comprises seven buildings arranged across two precincts. In total, the development will deliver 1,227 apartments, including 201 allocated as affordable housing, alongside approximately 2,500 sqm of retail and 5,000 sqm of commercial space within a mixed-use podium.

<img alt="Tiberius’ Crescent Parklands to deliver 1,200+ homes in major Holroyd transformation" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="1cc82dd2-8184-4b86-8665-90653147820d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Crescent%20buildings.png?VersionId=2ZmVDc_Rfc4AzQ6ShzZJlvdZnACLerVM" />

The project is structured as a masterplanned precinct rather than a standalone tower. Buildings 1 to 4 will rise from a shared podium with shop-top housing, while Buildings 5 to 7 are positioned closer to the northern park interface as residential flat buildings. The built form has been carefully modulated to balance density with amenity, with the design resolving building separation, solar access, and wind impacts at a precinct scale.

A significant focus of the design is the activation of Crescent Street and the integration of public domain. The submission notes that “individual townhouses [were] removed for community based functions to Crescent Street to increase activation and surveillance,” reinforcing a more urban and publicly engaged street edge. Retail, commercial tenancies, and resident amenity spaces are concentrated along this frontage and within the podium to support day-to-day activity.

The landscape strategy underpins the project’s identity, with a network of pedestrian connections, landscaped corridors, and open spaces linking the site internally and to its surroundings. The design prioritises permeability, delivering “increased uninterrupted flow between spaces for pedestrian access” and improved connections through to the adjoining parklands.

Buildings within the western precinct are oriented toward the park, shaping a residential offering defined by proximity to open space. The design describes this approach as creating apartments “immersed in nature with apartments facing the park,” positioning the landscape as a central organising element of the masterplan.

The broader architectural response addresses both infrastructure and context, with taller elements capturing long-range views toward Parramatta while setbacks and separation distances mitigate impacts on surrounding residential areas. Sustainability initiatives, including solar optimisation, cross-ventilation, and integrated landscape systems, are embedded across the scheme.

Located approximately one kilometre south of Parramatta CBD, the 3.6-hectare site is bounded by Crescent Street, Woodville Road, and Holroyd Sportsground. It benefits from strong access to public transport, including nearby bus routes and train stations, and sits within a rapidly evolving corridor earmarked for increased residential density. The design also strengthens connections between surrounding green spaces, including Holroyd Sportsground and Parramatta Parklands.

The approval follows several years of planning, including a rezoning process that enabled significant uplift in height and density across the site. With determination now secured, Crescent Parklands is positioned to play a major role in delivering new housing supply within Greater Parramatta’s growth area.

Tiberius’ Crescent Parklands to deliver over 1,200 homes in major Holroyd transformation

A new State Significant Development application has been lodged over land at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/33-43-marion-street-parramatta-nsw-2150">33–43 Marion Street</a>, Parramatta, proposing a high-rise mixed-use tower that leverages planning incentives to deliver a substantial pipeline of new housing, including a dedicated affordable component.

The scheme, currently on exhibition, combines a shop-top housing development with a concurrent rezoning, positioning the site for a significant uplift in density within Parramatta’s evolving southern CBD fringe.

The proposal, designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fuse-architecture-0">Fuse Architects</a> for CN Marion, would replace the existing buildings with a 37-storey mixed-use tower, delivering 296 apartments above a retail podium with six basement levels on the 2,376 sqm site.

The residential mix comprises 58 one-bedroom, 207 two-bedroom, and 31 three-bedroom apartments, with communal facilities located on the second level and the rooftop. Ground-level activation is driven by retail and food and beverage tenancies, alongside a publicly accessible through-site link designed to improve pedestrian permeability.

The project includes 194 car spaces, five motorcycle spaces, and 348 bicycle spaces, reflecting a transit-oriented approach in a location directly adjacent to the rail corridor and within walking distance of Harris Park Station.

<img alt="First Look: Plans lodged for 37-storey mixed-use tower with affordable housing at 33–43 Marion Street, Parramatta" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3db873ea-62f0-437b-8a6a-eeda154d2dee" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Marion%20building.png?VersionId=YwzBv8OVHwyRnMLGX4slU7QyhTyMZeOX" />

The design adopts a podium-and-tower composition, with a three-storey street wall addressing Marion Street and a reduced two-storey interface responding to adjoining heritage cottages.

A key component of the proposal is the integration of affordable housing under the NSW Government’s in-fill affordable housing pathway, with units to be retained for a minimum of 15 years. This is paired with a broader public domain strategy that emphasises permeability, deep soil planting, and a landscaped through-site link.

“The strategy prioritises a permeable, well-activated public realm and supports a compact tower form to minimise the building’s footprint while enhancing the quality of the ground-level experience,” the design report states.

The proposal includes a central landscaped courtyard, rooftop communal areas, and planting strategies aligned with local environmental conditions and cultural narratives.

The site occupies a prominent corner of Marion and Station streets, roughly 100 metres from Harris Park Station, within a precinct earmarked for significant intensification. While the immediate context is characterised by low- to mid-rise buildings and heritage dwellings, planning controls and recent proposals point to a transition toward high-density development.

A substantial uplift in height and density is being tested in Lane Cove, with a 225-apartment scheme at 300 Burns Bay Road now on public exhibition as a State Significant Development alongside a concurrent rezoning.

The proposal by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/level-33">Level 33</a> would see the demolition of an existing commercial building and associated structures, replaced by a residential development ranging from seven to 15 storeys.&nbsp;

The scheme delivers 225 apartments, including 34 designated as affordable housing, positioning it within the NSW Government’s accelerated Housing Delivery Authority pathway.

The development is arranged as three interconnected residential flat buildings, a response to the site’s long, narrow configuration and sloping topography.&nbsp;

<img alt="First look: 225-apartment Lane Cove tower proposal enters exhibition under State Significant pathway" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c325d40c-ead5-45f4-9d77-5a446b23acc0" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Lane%20Cove%20pers.png?VersionId=hsCJxT5hj.5kzA6AMInyan1x8mcHeRez" />

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/pbd-architects">PBD Architects</a>, the project’s designer, describe a built form that is “divided into three sections, each connected by intermediate infill slots which are recessed to establish greater setbacks and further articulate the development.”

Across the scheme, apartments are supported by communal amenity at ground and rooftop levels, including landscaped open space and a rooftop pool. Basement and lower ground levels accommodate parking, storage, and building services, while a new public park is proposed along the eastern edge of the site, replacing part of the existing built form.

The architectural response has been shaped by the site’s pronounced fall towards the Lane Cove River, with building heights stepping down from west to east to reduce visual bulk and respond to adjoining bushland.&nbsp;

The design report notes that “the development has been carefully designed to integrate with the existing topography with the placement of massing and floor levels adjusted respecting the site’s inherent characteristics.”

<img alt="First look: 225-apartment Lane Cove tower proposal enters exhibition under State Significant pathway" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="31cc13a5-bc8b-4dc3-b9b1-07c6ec33a82b" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Lane%20cove%20site.png?VersionId=NiyH3LimQwiHsE6Q7I5g4Grpr5fRdZaX" />

The project is being advanced through a concurrent rezoning process, seeking to increase the permissible height and floor space ratio beyond current Lane Cove LEP controls of 21 metres. Under the proposal, height would reach up to 54.5 metres, reflecting a shift toward higher-density outcomes in well-located urban areas.

Located on a 7,595 sqm site, the development sits within an established high-density residential pocket characterised by mid-rise apartment buildings set within a bushland setting. The site is within close proximity to Burns Bay Reserve, the Lane Cove River, and an extensive network of open space, reinforcing its strategic positioning for increased housing supply.

Level 33 is doing through the Housing Delivery Authority to try and get its Homebush project of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/nsw/level-33-adds-to-2-000-unit-pipeline-with-new-two-tower-homebush-plans">more than 300 apartments approved</a>.

The developer has over 2,000 apartments in the pipeline, predominantly in Wollongong.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150992 project_image_fid=366023]

Construction is already well underway, a signal of confidence to buyers, following the demolition of the two-storey walk-up and 1990s built house that sat on two sites that have been amalgamated to create a prime corner block.

There are a mix of two- and three-bedroom apartments on offer, starting from $1.4 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150992 project_image_fid=366024]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a>, Elise responds to its coastal setting through a horizontal architectural form with recessed glazing and layered landscaping. The design aims to balance light, shade and sea breezes while creating a defined presence along the streetscape.&nbsp;

Residences have been planned with an emphasis on outdoor living suited to the Gold Coast climate, including large balconies designed as usable outdoor rooms. Interiors will feature a selection of European appliances and natural materials, including New Zealand wool carpets.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150992 project_image_fid=366033]

Resident amenities are centred around a wellness-focused ground-level precinct. There will be private access to a heated swimming pool, sauna, cold plunge and gym, alongside a residents’ lounge with dining and entertaining space.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/elise-palm-beach-3-twenty-fifth-avenue-palm-beach-qld-4221">ELISE</a> is located towards the northern end of Palm Beach, which puts it just a short walk to Tallebudgera and Currumbin Creeks.

Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/31-41-o-hara-street-marrickville-nsw-2204">Third.i</a>&nbsp;has announced a new transport-oriented development in one of Sydney Inner West’s most sought-after metropolitan locations, delivering much needed housing within steps of world-class public transport and vibrant village life.

Located at&nbsp;31-41 O’Hara St,&nbsp;Marrickville, the proposed mixed-use development will include around 300 apartments, with up to 17 per cent dedicated to affordable housing, reinforcing Third.i’s commitment to creating inclusive, well-connected communities that support a diverse mix of residents who keep Sydney’s neighbourhoods thriving.

Located just 100 metres from the new Metro station, the development places residents within minutes of the CBD while offering seamless access to the Inner West’s cafés, retail, and local services. Anchored within a thriving local centre, the project supports everyday living without reliance on cars, while also delivering new public open space for the local community, including a new park and landscaped green areas, alongside high-quality private resident amenities.

Florian Caillon, Head of Acquisitions for Third.i Group, said the project builds on the company’s ongoing work alongside the NSW Government to deliver housing and amenity alongside major transport infrastructure. Amenity includes an activated pedestrianise retail strip that connects Illawarra Road down to the pocket park, and health and wellness facilities.&nbsp;

“Delivering housing of this scale within an established village is a rare opportunity, and few companies have achieved residential outcomes of this size at a village centre," Caillon said.

"We are excited to set a new standard for urban living in the heart of Marrickville,” he said.&nbsp;

The inclusion of affordable housing has been welcomed by frontline workers.

“We are supportive of developments which will allow essential workers like nurses, midwives and carers, the opportunity to live in the communities they care for," said&nbsp;Michael Whaites, General Secretary of the NSW Nurses and Midwives’ Association..

“Many healthcare workers tell us they would like to live closer to where they work, but are being priced out of the market, forcing them to move further away.&nbsp;

“Dedicated apartments for essential workers will support recruitment and retention in local hospitals and aged care facilities, helping to strengthen our health system.”

The project has been declared State Significant Development (SSD) by the Housing Delivery Authority (HDA).

An apartment in the soon-to-be completed Opera Residences at Sydney's Circular Quay has been listed for resale seeking $13.5 million.

The three bedroom, two bathroom apartment at 71 Macquarie Street is just one of three apartments on level 16, with the building topping out at level 19.

It spans 204 sqm, including its large entertaining balcony with 180 degree views of Sydney Harbour, the Opera House, Botanical Gardens and the city.

<a href="/buildings/opera-residences-71-macquarie-street-sydney"><img alt="" height="746" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/opera_residences_2_0.jpg" width="1200"></a>

There's timber chevron flooring, floor to ceiling glass to maximise the views and a Corian kitchen with Gaggenau appliances and Liebherr fridge.

Opera Residences, developed by Macrolink and Landream, will comprise 104 apartments designed in collaboration between Tzannes Architects, Crone Partners and Make.

Craig Donohue at Ayre Real Estate has the listing.

Donohue recently secured a <a href="/news/nsw/off-the-plan-buyer-success-in-sydney-s-loftus-lane-development">strong resale at the nearby Loftus Lane</a>.

The off the plan buyer of a sub-penthouse in Sydney’s Loftus Lane development has scored a big resale as the project nears completion.

The sub-penthouse A603 in the luxury project near Sydney Harbour sold for $5.4 million, having been snapped up at the sales launch back in mid-2017 for $4.975 million direct from the developer AMP Capital.

Ayre Real Estate director Craig Donohue sold the apartment to a Northern Beaches local who had been looking for a Sydney CBD base for around 12 months.

<a href="/buildings/quay-quarter-18-loftus-street-sydney"><img alt="" height="889" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/8_loftus_lane_circular_2.jpg" width="1200"></a>

Donohue said the buyer was shown a few apartments in established and other new developments in the CBD but Loftus Lane's location was a stand out.

"He also loved the fact that this property had a substantial and very usable outdoor space and was really impressed with the design of the building", Donohue said.

Due to settle in April, 8 Loftus Lane has been designed by Studio Bright and will comprise 106 apartments across three Art Deco-style buildings.

<a href="/buildings/quay-quarter-18-loftus-street-sydney"><img alt="" height="730" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/8_loftus_2.jpg" width="1200"></a>

Loftus Lane is part of Quay Quarter Sydney, the dynamic new neighbourhood and major redevelopment of two complete city blocks up near Circular Quay.

When the apartments hit the market in mid-2017, they all sold out within two hours of the launch.

Donohue says there is strong buyer demand for luxury apartments in the CBD.

“The Sydney CBD landscape is changing from a business district to a luxury world class lifestyle hub”, Donohue says.

“As the new developments come closer to completion, buyer can not only see what the final product looks like, but also plan to take occupancy this year which is generating lots of excitement”.

A $13 million luxury development at Circular Quay has been planned, with Queensland-based company rawGROUP Hospitality aiming to break into the Sydney market.
rawGROUP Hospitality Director Adrian Rosato said the company had signed a lease for a 662 square metre site in the luxury residential and retail development, Opera Residences at Bennelong Point.
The project will replicate the business’s Madame Wu riverfront restaurant in Brisbane.
“With the fit out included, we are planning for the total investment in this project to be around $13 million,” he said. 
“Madame Wu Sydney will stretch across two levels, offering diners extraordinary views of one of the world’s most iconic settings, and will be located inside the luxury development that has been reported as having Australia’s most expensive apartments.” 
rawGROUP Hospitality also owns Chu the Phat Asian street food diner in South Brisbane, a chain of casual Beach Bar and Grill restaurants across south east Queensland, and an Italian eatery at Chermside in Brisbane’s northern suburbs.
The company opened Madame Wu Brisbane, on Eagle Street, in 2014.
Sydney-based designer Paul Papadopolous of DS17, who designed the Brisbane complex, will also be applying his flare to the Sydney site.
He described the project as ‘glamorous, contemporary and eclectic’. 
Madame Wu Sydney is expected to open before Christmas 2020.

Testing of light rail vehicles along George Street is now in full swing, with the first tram travelling the length of the street from Central Station to Circular Quay in daylight hours.
Premier Gladys Berejiklian and Minister for Transport Andrew Constance boarded the first tram to make the journey during the day and travelled from the Martin Place stop to the end of the line at Circular Quay.
“This is an exciting day for Sydney with light rail vehicles making their way down the revitalised George Street,” Ms Berejiklian said.
“This is just the start of daytime testing along the length of the line and we can expect to see a lot more of it ahead of customer services starting before the end of the year.
“The new network will move up to 13,500 commuters an hour during peak time, replacing the conga line of buses which used to sit in traffic on George Street.”
Andrew Constance again reminded the community to be aware of the changed environment in the area as tram testing becomes more frequent. 
“Now trams are in the busy CBD day and night everyone needs to be aware, remove your headphones, get off your phone and remember to look both ways before crossing the road”, Mr Constance said.
“We’re now on the home stretch of this project and in December, Sydney residents and its visitors will benefit from a better connected city and a transformed boulevard.”
New trams hold up to up to 450 passengers, equivalent of up to nine standard buses.
The new light rail network will have the initial capacity to move up to 13,500 commuters per hour during peak times (7am – 7pm).

Meanwhile, demolition works are continuing at One Circular Quay in preparation for construction of a project that will further enhance Sydney’s world-renowned waterfront, in a prime position between the harbour bridge and Opera House. 
The projects combined are expected to represent about $2.8 billion of investment when completed and create more than 1,500 long-term jobs.
The chairman of Yuhu Group Australia, Xiangmo Huang said the Circular Quay project was an important part of a multibillion dollar rejuvenation plan for the Sydney CBD and waterfront.
“This is a transformational period for Sydney and we are very proud to be in a position to make a positive contribution to the urban renewal process through the highest quality of design and construction,” he said.
"These are investments for the future so our vision can be summed up as ‘built to last’ rather than ‘built to sell’,” he said. 
AWH director Jimmy Huang said the projects would set an extremely high benchmark. 
“These are outstanding development sites and there is a lot of anticipation about what we can deliver to realise their enormous potential,” he said. 
Yuhu Group CEO Nick Tobin said the acquisitions marked the beginning of an exciting new period for the company.

Yuhu says Australian projects will be ‘built to last’

There's been a fire at One Circular Quay, the Dalian Wanda development near the Sydney Harbour.
The fire, described as "really bad" by onlookers, broke out earlier this morning.
"There were workers on the scaffold," one woman wrote on Facebook. She suggested she heard three explosions.
More than 60 fire fighters across 16 fire crews are attempting to subdue the fire.
The site, as well as some nearby office buildings, have been evacuated, as well as the Circular Quay train station. Regular service has been resumed at the station.
Nobody was badly injured. A number of people were treated for minor smoke inhalation.
The site of Gold Fields House, which dates back to 1966, was one of Sydney's first high rise buildings. 
Late last month it was announced that Dalian Wanda sold the project to Sydney developer Yuhu Group.

Late last year Wanda begun marketing the apartments in the development.
They described the Sydney building as Australia's most prestigious residential development (below).
The flagship $1 billion project was officially launched at the Museum of Contemporary Art in April.
The 57 storey tower will comprise 184 apartments and a 179 room hotel.
<div class="cq-article-content-paras section">
"The Circular Quay site remains under the management of Wanda, as the transfer process continues," a Yuhu spokesman told Fairfax Media.
</div>
<div class="related-quotes section">Part payment for the sale is due on March 15.</div>
<div class="cq-article-content-paras section">
Police say the remains of the building, which was undergoing demolition, has sustained significant damage.
"Officers attached to Sydney City Local Area Command will investigate the circumstances surrounding the blaze. It is not known if there are any suspicious circumstances; inquiries are continuing," police reports say.

Fire at luxury Wanda apartment development in Sydney's Circular Quay

<html><body>
<div class="cq-article-content-paras section">
The Sydney developer Yuhu Group has been confirmed as the buyer of the two Australian property jewels being developed by the Chinese conglomerate Dalian Wanda.
The company have paid a reported $1.13 billion for the Sydney and Gold Coast residential and hotel mixed-used projects.
Yuhu struck its deal in Hong Kong on January 18.
"Yuhu has faith that these two projects will inject new employment and boost the local economy," Yuhu founder and chairman Huang Xiangmo told Fairfax Media, where two reporters claimed to have broken the news exclusively.
Yuhu was the reported buyer in The Australian two weeks ago.
Yuhu is a local developer which is committed to investing in real estate and other developments in Australia, the group confirmed overnight.

<div class="cq-article-content-media section"> </div>
<div class="cq-article-content-media section">The purchase price for the two highly desirable real estate assets is made up of a cash component of $315 million alo with the presumed debt of $815 million.</div>
<div class="cq-article-content-paras section">
Forty-five per cent of the Gold Coast project Jewel was owned by Chinese-backed group Ridong. It has also sold its interests in the sale to Yuhu.
An independent valuation of the two projects put them at a total value of $1.12 billion, Dalian Wanda said in a release to the Hong Kong Exchange on Monday night.
Dalian Wanda came under pressure by the Chinese government to crimp its overseas investments.

<div class="cq-article-content-paras section">
Forty per cent of the Jewel apartments have sold, with the joint venture struggling to achieve similar sales rates achieved by many developers during the housing boom in the past five years, according to the Australian Financial Review 
Yuhu is in no rush to complete the sales of apartments.
<div class="cq-article-content-media section">The company has extensive developments and investments in Sydney.</div>
<div class="cq-article-content-media section"> </div>
<div class="cq-article-content-media section">They include the Eastwood shopping centre, which it has plans to redevelop.</div>
<div class="cq-article-content-media section">There is also the North Sydney residential tower, The Miller, which it is developing, and the Bakehouse Quarter in Sydney's inner west which it bought for $380 million last year. </div>
<div class="cq-article-content-paras section">
Mr Huang says the residential market in Sydney continues to show strong fundamentals.
It also advised its plans to retain the penthouse atop the Circular Quay residential tower, which Dalian Wanda was said to have received an expression-of-interest offer of $100 million.
As a local company Yuhu did not require Foreign Investment Review Board approval.
Yuhu is controlled by Mr Huang - an Australian permanent resident - and his family members, who are Australian citizens.
