Mulpha wins approval to redevelop Norwest Marketown Shopping Centre site

Mulpha Australia , the parent developer of Norwest Business Park , has received unanimous approval from The Hills Shire Council to redevelop the Marketown Shopping Centre site , situated at 4-6 Century Circuit , Norwest , adjacent to Norwest Boulevarde and the Norwest Metro Station .
The Norwest Marketown Planning Proposal aims to facilitate the long-planned transformation of 46,455m2 of land currently comprising Norwest Marketown Shopping Centre and adjoining lands including the Carlile Swimming Centre . The development will take over 15 years to deliver , ultimately building homes for over 850 families , workspace for over 3,000 workers and providing a vibrant place for shopping , dining , recreation , and entertainment , attracting locals and visitors to the new urban centre for Norwest .
In redeveloping Norwest Marketown , Mulpha ’ s vision is to create a dynamic and vibrant urban centre at the heart of Norwest , comprising a rich mix of retail , commercial , residential , hotel accommodation and community spaces that are interwoven with activated pedestrian walkways , expansive green spaces , and civic public places .
Mulpha ’ s proposal includes reserving more than 50 percent of the overall site for dedication as publicly accessible space ( including approximately 6,000sqm of waterfront parkland with direct frontage to Norwest Lake ) and more than half of the balance of the site dedicated to commercial and workplace-related uses , consistent with and to further enhance the employment focus of Norwest .
Education and collaboration facilities are also a primary focus of the redevelopment proposal , with plans to include a Community Facility storeys high . and Library , Education and Innovation Hub to provide a contemporary , flexible and collaborative workspace for students , business and the local community .
Norwest Marketown will elevate Norwest ’ s position as a key central business district to the rest of Sydney and be the gateway to the thriving Norwest community .

Community , connectivity , creativity and sustainability are at the heart of our vision for Norwest .
