CHIWAYLAND recently received endorsement from the city council of Parramatta, New South Wales to more than double the floor space ratio of its development in the city centre.

The Group expects to receive final approval from the state government to sharply increase the floor space ratio of its Bluesky @ Parramatta project from 4.1 to 11.5 by November 2016.

The Bluesky project is benefiting from a policy known as ‘decade of decentralisation’ to move a whopping 100,000 square metres of government office space from downtown Sydney to regional centres by 2021.

This translates into office acreage equivalent to more than 14 football fields.

Parramatta is a suburb in Greater Western Sydney, 23 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district. The second largest business district in the state of New South Wales, Parramatta has been earmarked for the relocation of public service offices from Sydney CBD on the east coast of New South Wales to Western Sydney.

Since 2014, the government has announced the relocation of more than 4,200 public service roles from Sydney CBD to Western Sydney, including more than 1,800 jobs to Parramatta.

The policy has boosted Parramatta’s economy: Coupled with a low interest rate environment, Parramatta housing prices have jumped 76% in the past five years and office building vacancy is the healthiest in Australia at 4.5%.

Bluesky will be built with a height of 138 meters. It is located in the core area of Parramatta CBD, 200 meters away from the local park, 400 meters from the Parramatta train transportation junction, 500 meters from retail centers at Westfield and Chinatown, and only 600 meters from the public primary school.

The Group has a 75% stake in the Bluesky project and expects to complete it in 2019.
