Brookfield Place, Sydney.
Brookfield Place, Sydney (formerly Wynyard Place).
Valued at approximately $2 billion, Brookfield Place Sydney is a landmark mixed‑use development that has redefined the heart of Sydney’s central business district. Positioned above the newly constructed Transit Hall at Wynyard Station, the project represents one of the most significant urban regeneration undertakings in the city’s recent history—transforming a key transport interchange into a world‑class commercial and civic destination.
Comprising around 75,000 sqm of premium office and retail space, Brookfield Place integrates cutting‑edge workplace design with an activated ground plane rich in retail, dining, and laneway experiences. The development brings together the restored heritage façades of Shell House and 285 George Street with contemporary architectural forms, delivering a seamless blend of old and new that enhances the character and quality of the precinct.
Central to the project is the new state‑of‑the‑art Wynyard Transit Hall, which serves as a major gateway to the CBD, improving commuter flow and connectivity across the city. Generously expanded pedestrian links between George and Carrington Streets have opened previously inaccessible parts of the site, introducing a series of connected retail and hospitality spaces that activate the precinct throughout the day and night. The result is a fully integrated Transit‑Oriented Development (TOD) distinguished by its architectural excellence, improved public domain, and place‑making vibrancy.
Completed in late 2021, Brookfield Place Sydney has emerged as one of Sydney’s most prestigious business addresses and a benchmark for integrated, sustainable, and design‑led urban renewal. Notably, it was also the first project in Sydney to progress from inception to completion through the NSW Government’s Unsolicited Proposal (USP) process, setting a new precedent for private‑public collaboration in large‑scale CBD development.
