Defend Sydney Park - Stop the 15-storey development

A property developer wants to build 700 apartments in towers up to 15 storeys high on the edge of Sydney Park. Help us stop this massive development and reclaim the land for public green space.

Developer Besgate is proposing five residential buildings at 205–225 Euston Road, Alexandria, on the former FedEx site.

This is a dramatic increase on the development approved in 2022, which allowed around 350 apartments in buildings up to seven storeys high.

Sydney Park is one of the most important green spaces in Sydney's inner south. The community has already lost 1.4 hectares of the park to WestConnex.

There is a better alternative.

In 1982, the Sydney Park Plan of Management, commissioned by the NSW Government, recommended purchasing the remaining land within the Sydney Park block and incorporating it into the park. This included the former FedEx site.

We are calling on the NSW Government to reject this massive development, buy the land and expand Sydney Park as permanent public green space.
