EMBEDDING SUSTAINABILITY INTO EVERYTHING WE DO
PROPERTY: NEW BUILD
CENTRAL PARK 1, SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
The redevelopment of the former Carlton United Brewery site in Chippendale aims to create a people-centred new destination for Sydney and will effectively double Chippendale’s population. This $2 billion project will be across a 5.8 hectare site and comprise a mix of residential, commercial and retail uses, as well as recreational activity in the main area of parkland and other open spaces. The new shops and offi ces will attract new businesses, services and jobs to the area and a new “high street” will be created to accommodate the new offi ce workers. The development will include further features such as a new park of over 5,000m2; several new pocket parks and
an integrated landscape plan for the site; a new urban square next to the retained heritage buildings of the Irving Street Brewery; and the retention and adaptive reuse of 29 heritage items.
Aiming to be Australia’s fi rst 6-star Green Star precinct, Central Park 1 combines world-class social and environmental sustainability initiatives in what will be Sydney’s largest urban regeneration project. WSP Lincolne Scott and its specialist environmental design service, Built Ecology, has been involved since conception and are providing an integrated service with environmentally sustainable design a focus of the development. The services include: mechanical, electrical, hydraulics/plumbing, vertical transportation, fi re safety and fi re protection.
This development aims to be at the forefront of environmental sustainability initiatives across the country by seeking both a 6-star energy and water rating as well as recycling 90% of material from demolition work. It will also be the largest urban development in Australia to introduce on-site tri-generation (known as “green transformers”) for power, heating and cooling and include sustainability principles such as water-sensitive urban design (WSUD). It aims to be water neutral and no potable water will be used for non-potable demands.
Other site initiatives include photovoltaic cells offset for park lighting and solar facade for hot water generation.
