Vision
With overarching themes of interaction, sustainability and community, Green Square Town Centre has been envisioned as a planned major centre for residential, commercial and cultural activities. Comprising approximately 410,000sqm of mixed use floor space, it will accommodate some 7,000 workers and 5,500 residents.
Mixing thriving green spaces with plazas and piazzas, it will become a social hub for residents. Green Square Town Centre will be a place for living, working and entertainment. It embodies the Lord Mayor’s vision for Sydney as a ‘City of Villages’ promoting interaction within a vibrant, urban community.
A new civic plaza will be created as a venue for markets, events and community gatherings. Piazzas will become places to pause, relax and absorb the ambience and passing scenes. Adjacent parklands will provide open spaces to play, picnic or relax outdoors.
Green Square Town Centre is also conceived as a model of transport-oriented development, driven by its connection to Green Square Railway Station and proximity to other forms of transport.
Environmental imperatives have driven the vision of Green Square, which features progressive environmental initiatives to conserve water and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It will set new standards in sustainability and will be showcased as one of the nation’s leading eco-villages, setting new benchmarks for design and architectural excellence.
