The Concept Plan for Barangaroo was first
approved by the NSW Minister for Planning in February 2007 and
covers urban design and policy initiatives. The Concept Plan
is the statutory master planning instrument which guides the
redevelopment of Barangaroo.
In February 2009, the NSW Government announced
that 120,000 square metres of additional commercial floor space
would be built at Barangaroo to help ensure Sydney remains a global
headquarters in the Asia Pacific. In November 2009 further
amendments were made to refine planning for the Headland Park and
Northern Cove.
In December 2010, the Minister for Planning
approved an amendment to the Concept Plan, allowing additional
floor space, additional height and a landmark hotel on a public
pier.
There have been four amendments to the Concept
Plan since the original in 2007. Links to the applications
and approvals can be found below.
