The Department of Planning, Industry and Environment is welcoming feedback from the community on a new Bates Smart designed 39-storey residential tower above the Sydney Metro Pitt Street Station.

The proposed Pitt Street South tower will provide new opportunities for international students, professionals, young families and down-sizers.

A consortium of Oxford Properties , CPB Contractors and Grocon will deliver the new station and two new buildings above to form a vibrant new commercial and residential hub around Pitt and Bathurst Streets.

The Department’s Executive Director of Key Sites and Industry Assessments, Anthea Sargeant, said community input is a vital part of the assessment process and encouraged everyone to have their say on the Modification Application to the approved Stage 1 Concept and the Stage 2 State Significant Development (SSD) Application.

“If approved, the new 39-storey residential tower and retail space will be constructed above the station’s south entrance,” Ms Sargeant said.

“Our role is to assess the applications in consultation with the local community, government agencies and stakeholders so we are encouraging the community to share their views on this over station residential project.”

The development application for the apartment tower will be on public exhibition until 1 July.
