Billbergia is once again making headlines – this time with am ambitious proposal to transform a cluster of underutilised sites in Chatswood CBD into one of the most significant residential projects on Sydney’s North Shore. Â
The development, spanning 849 – 859 Pacific Highway, 2 Wilson Street and 58 Anderson Street, proposes two striking residential towers rising above a podium – a scheme that would bring 429 new apartments, commercial space and community uses. Â
The project carries an indicative gross floor area of 56,500 sqm. Of this, 53,051 sqm is residential and 3,449 sqm is commercial. The residential offering is diverse, with a mix of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments.Â
At its base, an eight-level basement will accommodate car and bicycle parking. Above, a two-storey podium will activate the streetscape with live/work apartments, commercial premises, a childcare centre and resident communal areas. Â
A key enabler for the project is the rezoning completed in May 2023. A site-specific planning proposal amended controls for the land, rezoning it to B4 Mixed Use and increasing height and density. The gazetted amendments included:Â Â
For Billbergia, known for reshaping Rhodes and Wentworth Point, this project is another bold entry into Sydney’s high-density growth story. Â
