Built to Construct $130m Parramatta Square Development

8a1f5304-e129-4dd5-8728-534197bb822a

Australian company Built have been selected to construct the $130 million 5 Parramatta Square following a year-long process by council.

The six-storey building would be the final addition to the new Parramatta Square precinct, a three-hectare mixed-use area in the centre of Parramatta CBD.

Plans for the sharp-tapered building include council chambers, library, exhibition spaces, visitor services, meeting rooms and a cafe.

It was designed by French firm Manuelle Gautrand Architecture and Australian firms DesignInc and Lacoste + Stevenson following an international design competition.

▲ 5 Parramatta Square will be the new home of council chambers and the library.


City of Parramatta lord mayor Bob Dwyer said the building would be the “jewel in the crown” of the world-class Parramatta Square precinct.

“The site of 5 Parramatta Square is challenging and Built has come up with innovative ideas for constructing a multipurpose building with a unique facade.

“The company is already delivering 6 & 8 Parramatta Square, part of Australia’s largest urban regeneration project.”

Located next to Parramatta train station and a future light rail stop on Macquarie Street, the precinct includes 6,000sq m of public domain.

Council anticipates that construction of 5 Parramatta Square will be completed in April 2022, to coincide with the completion of the remaining Parramatta Square precinct.
