Celebrating Barangaroo South
Barangaroo South is complete, but its story is just beginning.
After 15 years of vision, collaboration and transformation, 2025 marks the completion of one of Australia’s most ambitious urban regeneration projects.
From a disused container terminal to a vibrant, carbon-neutral waterfront precinct, Barangaroo South has redefined what’s possible. It’s a place where sustainability, design excellence and community come together, and where people live, work, and connect every day.
But Barangaroo South was never designed to stand still. It was built to evolve, with its people, with the city, and with the future.
CONNECTED TO COUNTRY
Barangaroo, like the other Cammeraygal fisherwomen with her, moved across the harbour, playing a vital role in providing for her family and community.
Today her legacy as a proud representative of First Nation’s peoples is celebrated across the CBD foreshore precinct that bears her name.

SO STYLISH, SO SYDNEY
Rising above Sydney CBD’s harbour shoreline, Barangaroo South’s buildings are spectacular and sustainable.
Designed by a talented group of local and international architects and placemakers, Barangaroo South’s bold buildings and imaginative public spaces are authentically Sydney.

PARTNERING FOR SUCCESS
From a fenced-off container port to a buzzing harbourside destination, Barangaroo South was made possible through the power of partnership.
The inspiration came from the NSW Government’s bold vision to return the harbour foreshore to the people of Sydney.

BLUEPRINT FOR RESPONSIBLE DEVELOPMENT
From vision to reality, sustainability has always been a core operating principle for Sydney CBD’s new waterside precinct. Sustainability at Barangaroo South is about the environment but, importantly, it’s also about people.
The precinct’s approach features environmental and social sustainability.

AN URBAN FAIRYTALE
From ugly duckling to sleek waterside beauty, the story of Barangaroo South involves more than the rise of a new precinct.
It’s about the transformation of an almost forgotten part of Sydney into one of the world’s most ambitious urban renewal projects.

Bold, dynamic and welcoming, the recently completed Barangaroo South precinct is enhancing Sydney’s role as a global city.
Authentically Sydney, the new commercial, residential and hospitality precinct on the CBD’s western harbourfront is attracting locals, visitors, residents, workers and businesses.
