TOGA is making great strides in the construction of its latest Macquarie Park apartment project, Macquarie Rise.

The iCIRT-rated builder-developer has installed the first crane on the Herring Road site, which by mid-2027 will home 265 apartments and 5,000 sqm office and retail space across three towers.

Anthony Falas, Head of Sales at TOGA, says Macquarie Park continues to show strong fundamentals for both investors and owner-occupiers, offering a vibrant community and exceptional connectivity.

"The sales success of Macquarie Rise reflects the outstanding design, premium amenities, and prime location of the project," Falas says.

"The strong market demand for our high-quality, flexible apartments underscores the trust in TOGA’s ability to deliver exceptional living spaces."

Over 25 per cent of sales have come from previous purchasers or referrals from those purchasers. Over 100 of the apartments were sold off the plan within weeks of launch last year.

Designed by Turner Studio with interiors by Stack Studio, Macquarie Rise draws inspiration from hospitality design to create homes that are elegant, functional, and adaptable.

Many apartments include a versatile multi-purpose room – an increasingly popular feature as residents seek flexible spaces to accommodate home offices, studios, or nurseries. 

Future residents will enjoy exclusive access to Club Rise, which features a 20-metre rooftop lap pool, a business lounge with bookable meeting rooms, a gym and yoga studio, and even a karaoke and cinema room – all designed to support a balanced and connected lifestyle.

Macquarie Rise is strategically located within walking distance of Macquarie University, Macquarie Centre, and the Metro Station, enabling direct access to Sydney CBD and Barangaroo in under 20 minutes via the newly opened Metro line.

As TOGA advances toward vertical construction, excitement continues to build around the precinct’s contribution to Macquarie Park’s evolution as a thriving urban village. 

The $400 million development – being delivered in partnership with Baptist Union NSW and Morling College – is set for completion in mid-2027.
