At the heart of Sydney’s CBD, rising into the city’s expanding skyline and encapsulating the revitalisation of its civic, cultural and financial district, is the new Sydney Metro Martin Place precinct. 

 

The culmination of more than 10 million hours of work by 10,000 people over six years, the multi-billion-dollar, mixed-use development integrates a key interchange station on the new world-class Sydney Metro network with two state-of-the-art office towers – Macquarie’s new global headquarters at 1 Elizabeth Street (‘1 Elizabeth’) and the 28-storey 39 Martin Place – and a vibrant new quarter of shops, restaurants and public amenities. 

 

Catalysed by the New South Wales (NSW) Government’s announcement of the Sydney Metro project in 2015, Macquarie identified an opportunity to connect capital with community need to make a significant impact on the reinvigoration of Martin Place, which has been its home for more than 25 years, by developing the new Metro station and surrounding precinct. 

 

Applying expertise across complex urban, multi-sector developments, in partnership with the NSW Government, Macquarie has created a modern, future-focused redevelopment that honours both the heritage and character of the location while meeting the future needs and changing expectations for the public domain.
