Built’s $350m Low-Carbon Liverpool Tower Approved

Built's proposed plans for an office tower and hotel in the second stage of Liverpool's Civic Place masterplan.

The second stage of Built’s $600-million Civic Place masterplan in Liverpool has been approved. 

The masterplan for the mixed-use precinct was approved in 2020 with the first stage including new council offices, council chambers, a childcare centre, a state-of-the-art city library, the Civic Plaza and an underground public car park.

The Fjmt-designed masterplan for the site at 44 Scott Street was put forward in a joint venture between Built and the Liverpool City Council.

The second stage, or plans B and C of the masterplan, will include a net-zero, fully electrified, 24-storey office tower and a nine-storey 84-key hotel.

It will also include four basement levels with 151 car park spaces.

Built plans to build the project with 50 per cent less embodied carbon and 50 per cent less energy consumption. 

Construction is scheduled to start in 2023.

Built chief executive Brett Mason said the planning approval would encourage tenant interest. 

“This will be a truly transformative project for Liverpool which, along with Liverpool Civic Place and the development of new Western Sydney Airport and Aerotropolis, will attract a new level of economic investment, businesses and residents to Sydney’s third CBD,” Mason said.

Liverpool City Council rezoned 25ha of land in 2018 and in 2020 had approved $1.34-billion worth of development projects in the city area, $96 million of which was for affordable rental housing.

It was the fourth year that the city set a record for approvals.

Liverpool is just east of the multi-billion-dollar, 11,200ha Aerotropolis project, a city of five initial precincts surrounding the Western Sydney Airport. 

Aerotropolis is planned to be Sydney’s third CBD by 2036 with initial stages generating more than 100,000 jobs and 11,400 homes.

The plan was under the purview of then NSW planning minister Anthony Roberts before it was removed from his portfolio to be run from “the centre of government”.

The plan set out Sydney’s CBD as one city, with Parramata the second city and Aerotropolis the third, which follows a similar concept of the Indigenous peoples of the Eora and Darug nations that classified the land around Sydney, Parramatta and Western Sydney into saltwater country, muddy river country and running water country. 

Built recently stepped in to take over from Probuild as the builder on Atlassian and Dexus’ 25 Martin Place project, a similar net-zero, low-carbon tower in Sydney’s CBD.
