The City Precinct: A closer look
Delivered through a long term partnership with Plenary, the City Precinct activates Bradfield City’s early streets, public spaces, and economic engine, setting the tone for how the city will grow.
The City Precinct will make a significant contribution to addressing affordable housing needs with support from federal affordable housing initiatives. This development is the first step towards the creation of 1,400 new homes, with a guarantee that at least 10% are specifically designated as affordable housing.
Designed with liveability in mind, the project will integrate nearby abundant social amenities and open spaces, creating vibrant areas for recreation and fostering a strong sense of community. This holistic approach will ensure not only quality housing, but also an enhanced lifestyle for all future residents.
A great city has life between the buildings. Bradfield City’s retail and hospitality services will create the energy that keeps the precinct active day and night.
Ground-floor precincts will bring together food, lifestyle, and essential services, with flexible lease options for early tenants.
Retail at Bradfield City is not just a convenience. It is part of the city’s identity and culture.
Set across an impressive 1,500 square metres, our destinational food and beverage venue will offer sweeping views over Central Park and is poised to become a vibrant meeting place that will help activate Bradfield City.

With ambitions to lodge the State Significant Development Application (SSDA) in 2026, our development partner will be actively seeking a leading local Food and Beverage operator to bring their expertise and creativity to the project.
