In 2016, I published an entry on an early scheme for Transport Oriented Development at North Sydney dated 1968.
Recently, I came across an even earlier proposal dating from 1960. The key differences between this and the 1968 scheme is:
- The Hotel was planned to be a hostel.
- The office building (13 Blue Street) was originally planned as a 22 storey apartment tower.
- The 9 storey office building (Zurich Building) appears to be longer.
Anticipated completion was 1962.
