Parramatta North set for transformational urban renewal

Parramatta North in Sydney, Australia, is on the cusp of a major transformation—one that will weave together history, culture, and contemporary urban life.

Set to deliver 2,000 homes and a university campus for 25,000 students, this renewal project will reshape the precinct into a vibrant, connected community. ASPECT Studios, alongside Stewart Architecture , City People, and bangawarra, has helped shape a vision that respects the site’s deep historical and cultural significance while creating a thriving future.

As landscape architects, we see this as more than just urban regeneration—it’s about designing spaces that honor Country, celebrate heritage, and support resilient, people-focused places. Through thoughtful landscape interventions, we can help reimagine Parramatta North as a place where past and present coexist, where green spaces enhance community life, and where the river, Country, and culture remain at the heart of the design.
