The $591.5 million mixed-use tower would include 265 hotel suites, 279 build-to-rent apartments, offices, and ground floor retail outlets.
Inner-city churchgoers have mobilised against a proposed 50-storey tower that would contain a hotel and 279 apartments because the building would cast a shadow over the heritage-listed church’s stained-glass windows for most of the year.
In its submission, Greaton conceded its building would cast a shadow over the heritage-listed property but supplied analysis that found the shadow would “not affect morning services or High Mass on Sundays, as natural light from ornate stained-glass windows remain accessible” and that the “overshadowing is deemed acceptable given the church’s inner-city location”.
David Stark, who had been part of the church since 1982, wrote the tower would be a new “Nimrod/Trump Tower” and “most inappropriate for the area”. Other objectors to the proposal argued the submission did not propose any mitigations to the shadowing of the building, noise created by heavy construction work, traffic and parking issues that would be exacerbated by the project, and potential structural damage indirectly caused by construction work.contacted Greaton for comment on Tuesday afternoon, its representatives requested the story not be published until it could arrange a meeting with the City of Sydney to discuss the application.
