The NSW Department of Planning (the consent authority) has put on exhibition the plans for Central Barangaroo by Infrastructure NSW (the developer – who also happen to be part of the NSW Government).

This is the link - http://majorprojects.planning.nsw.gov.au/index.pl?action=view_job&job_id=6378  Scroll down to the middle of the page, under "Attachments & Resources" - to the "Modification Application" section and click on the "+" sign - 27 documents will be revealed.

Comprising almost two thousand pages of information, it details what we feared – a gross overdevelopment on the doorstep of Sydney’s Old Town, Millers Point – obliterating historic vistas to and from Observatory Hill.

To rub salt into the wound, a gratuitous cash grab residential tower, some 20+ stories on the northern edge of the area eclipsing what has been the tallest building in Millers Point for over 100 years (that’s what the suburb, Barangaroo used to be called) – The Palisade Hotel.  Our Premier doesn’t like Blues Point Tower across the harbour from Millers Point, so why is he allowing his own “Barangaroo Point” Tower?

Tell your friends and family about this. Have them sign the petition. And jump on to our Facebook page if that is also your thing - https://www.facebook.com/groups/dontblocktherocks/about
