The project reflects a trend to integrate urban life that we can work, live and play in the CBD business community and enjoy a range of high-quality public and private spaces.
Introduction
The project is located in the spectacular harbour area of Sydney. Once a container port, it is now one of the most important urban renewal projects in Sydney. The South District of Barangaroo Port has made Sydney a further step towards the development of convenient transportation, sustainable development and dynamic innovation. In 2008, the Lendlease Group commissioned the international architectural design firm Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners to lead the entire project design consultant team to master the planning of the Barangaroo Harbour South Block.

The South District of Barangaroo offers a range of opportunities to meet, rest and use the space, connecting the urban and coastal areas for the first time and providing a human experience that is in stark contrast to the high density of the Sydney CBD. The entire design creates a new public event space for the city, creating a balance between density and comfort. In keeping with the city's topography and population, the design extends from the urban street network and depicts a more intimate street trail network. Urban transformation is more than just building high-rise buildings. It is more about revitalizing unused areas, strengthening existing communities and creating new communities.
It’s about bringing an unused area back to life, strengthening existing communities and establishing new ones. While Barangaroo South is a vibrant new waterfront financial district with a mix of striking, thoughtfully designed office space, premium residential buildings and vibrant shopping, dining, hotel, hospitality venues, it represents a reimagined green, thriving and connected public space.
Conclusions
The intimate street trail network provides a range of opportunities for people to meet, rest and use the space. The green ecological public space brings vitality to the region. The design cannot ignore the effect of public spaces like streets on the quality of urban life. In addition, the waterfront area, as an important part of the city, is the stage of the city and is the living room of the citizens. The design of the waterfront city should balance the waterfront area with the urban area and strengthen the connection between the two parts.
