High-rise residential development proposals in NSW

Overview

New South Wales is seeing significant proposals for high-density residential developments aimed at increasing housing supply. In Sydney’s eastern suburbs, the state government has unveiled a 20-year plan to add 9,400 homes through high-rise towers of up to 34 storeys, particularly near transport hubs like Edgecliff. This plan faces opposition from the Woollahra Council, which has proposed a smaller alternative of 3,600 units.

In Wollongong, developer Level 33 has proposed a separate major apartment complex featuring five towers reaching up to 36 storeys. The project aims to house approximately 2,400 people and includes 190 affordable units. To facilitate the project, the developer is seeking rezoning through the NSW Major Projects process, as the proposed heights exceed current local limits.
