REDWatch Note - Sydney University submitted a preliminary proposal to the Department of Planning in 2007 to obtain the Director's Generals Requirements (DGRs) for the redevelopment of the Abercrombie Precinct. This proposal and the DGRs can be found on the DoP under Project Application 07_0158. The latest proposals being developed by the University is for a part of the area covered by the DGR's. The University is looking for community input prior to finalising the plans they will submit for exhibition. Community consultation prior to the formal exhibition is welcomed by REDWatch and we encourage Darlington residents to make the most of this opportunity for feedback.

The University of Sydney to host community information stall at Eveleigh Market

The Abercrombie Precinct will include student accommodation, and increase the Business School’s ability to attract the very best students, teachers and researchers from around the world.

“Keeping the community informed about the progress of the Abercrombie Precinct project is very important to the University of Sydney,” said Greg Robinson, Director of Campus Infrastructure and Services.  

“The feedback we received from the community following public exhibition in May this year was extremely valuable and helped us to refine the design even further.

“In particular, the University has reduced the height of the planned student accommodation building and increased setbacks to better integrate the development with surrounding properties.”

Through consultation activities and meetings with key local community groups, the University of Sydney understands that traffic and parking are important issues for local residents. To minimise these impacts, the revised design includes:

  • fewer car spaces within the site to reduce the number of car movements in and out of the precinct
  • a safe school drop-off zone directly adjacent to the school entrance
  • a focus on pedestrian safety and ease of access through the site, including a pedestrian path to the school that avoids the need to walk past the proposed car park entry on Abercrombie Street.

The University is currently in discussions with the NSW Department of Planning and Infrastructure about the conditions of approval for the project.  

“Subject to approval, we will undertake preliminary work to remove the demountable buildings on Codrington Street later this year,” Mr Robinson said.

“In the meantime, we look forward to continuing discussions with our neighbours and local residents about this leading-edge development.

“I urge everyone who would like to find out more about this exciting project to come and visit us at our information stall at the Eveleigh Market,” said Mr Robinson.

Information on the Abercrombie Precinct is also on display in the foyer of the University’s Services Building, 22 Codrington Street. You can access the foyer between 8.30am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday.
