Macquarie Park Place Strategy plans seven new neighbourhoods with up to 7,650 homes

The NSW Minister for Planning and Public Spaces Rob Stokes has placed the Macquarie Park Place Strategy on public exhibition until 10 August 2021.  

The Macquarie Park Place Strategy plans for seven new neighbourhoods, delivered in stages, with up to 7,650 homes.

There will be more than 14 hectares of new parks, squares, plazas, cycleways, linear parks and 2.7 hectares of enhanced open space.

The Macquarie Park Place Strategy plans for 20,000 new jobs in the neighbourhood with the new 20-year strategy.

“We’ve worked closely with the Greater Sydney Commission (GSC) and City of Ryde Council to deliver a dynamic vision for the future of Macquarie Park through to 2041 and beyond.”

The three Sydney Metro stations delivered in 2019 at Macquarie University, Macquarie Park and North Ryde have laid the foundations for growth in the early stages of the precinct’s construction.

“The infrastructure being built across the Ryde electorate will support the continued growth of Macquarie Park as a health, education and technology jobs precinct," Member for Ryde Victor Dominello.

After earlier rezonings, Macquarie Park is a hive of apartment development activity with new projects including Prime, by JQZ at 101-107 Waterloo Road, Macquarie Park.

The Prime project consists of four high-rise buildings, each with 23 levels. The project features 680 residences with multi-layered public and private spaces, offering one, two, three and four-bedroom residences and penthouses with private rooftop gardens and sunrooms, secure parking and lift access.
