Barangaroo construction short list announced
In September 2008, the NSW Government announced a short list of companies to be considered to develop and build Sydney’s landmark $2.5 billion Barangaroo project.
The three companies or consortia are:
- Lend Lease and Westpac Corporation
- Brookfield Multiplex
- Mirvac Projects, Leighton Projects, Nakheel PJSC, and Macquarie Property Development and Finance.
These companies were selected after a global search to design and develop the first stage of Barangaroo. They demonstrated the expertise, resources and capability to deliver:
- more than 390,000 square metres of commercial space at the southern end of the site
- a new harbour cove and public open space at the southern end of the site
- a benchmark sustainable precinct that achieves significant reductions in potable water and energy use by 2020.
The three companies are preparing more detailed design and development proposals from which a successful company will be appointed. This company will be given the remarkable opportunity of transforming the site into a vibrant new waterfront precinct for Sydney.
On 25 February 2009, the NSW Government announced that 120,000 square metres of additional commercial floor space will be built at Barangaroo to help ensure Sydney remains a premier commercial centre in the Asia Pacific Region.
A new ferry hub is also planned to provide transport to the more than 22,000 people who will live and work there.
Details of the announcement are available in the Newsroom.
