Where: Surrounding Macarthur Railway Station, Campbelltown
Council: Campbelltown
Area: 148 ha
What's proposed: Up to 2,400 dwellings, public open space (including Marsden Regional Park), the rehabilitation of Birunji Creek riparian corridors, aged care, medical and commercial facilities.
Our role: We are coordinating three separate projects to capitalise on access to transport, shopping and community facilities around the Campbelltown/Macarthur Regional Centre.
Where it's up to: The Park Central development is in the delivery phase and well advanced. Delivery of the Macarthur Gardens project has begun under a partnering arrangement with Stockland. The University of Western Sydney Campbelltown project, a proposed partnering arrangement between Landcom and the University of Western Sydney, is in the planning phase.
Features: These projects help implement the Macarthur Regional Strategy, set new standards in housing diversity and are a practical demonstration of the government's preferred model for future development across the growth centre.

Where: Above and adjacent to the Green Square Railway Station, Zetland
Council: City of Sydney
Area: 14 ha
What's proposed: 410,000 sqm of mixed-use gross floor area comprising around 2,500 dwellings and 120,000 sqm of commercial and retail area to be built around a series of major public plazas and associated community facilities.
Our role: Landcom resolved the complex planning of the site and infrastructure constraints to unlock the potential of the Town Centre. It is one of Australia's largest and most transforming urban renewal projects.
Where it's up to: We have consolidated government lands, secured private sector investment interest and intend to start construction in 2010.
Features: Green Square Town Centre is identified as a 'planned major centre' in the Metropolitan Strategy and is strategically located at the heart one of the largest redevelopment areas in the country. The development will showcase world-class urban renewal, underpinned by sustainable environmental, social and economic outcomes. It is expected to accommodate 5,500 residents and 7,000 workers, and provide $1.7 billion of direct investment in New South Wales.

Where: Windsor Road, Rouse Hill
Council: Baulkham Hills
Area: 122 ha
What's proposed: Up to 1,800 dwellings, 200,000 sqm of retail and commercial area, community and recreation facilities, and 32 ha of public open space including 27 ha of riparian corridor conservation area.
Our role: Landcom, in a partnership with the Department of Planning, Lend Lease and the GPT Group, is managing the project and has developed its delivery framework.
Where it's up to: Delivery phase. Stage 1 of the Rouse Hill Town Centre, comprising 73,000 sqm of mixed retail, commercial, recreational, civic and residential floor space, was opened on 6 March 2008 by Minister Frank Sartor. The 'Learn2' facility, which provides a gateway to a variety of learning and education opportunities, has also opened in the Town Centre.
Features: This $1.5-billion regional centre will eventually serve a regional population the size of Canberra. Landcom adopted the 'main street' model as the basis for the $470-million Town Centre which is being developed over 12 years to cater for the future demands of Sydney's northwest. Despite its size, the project has a significantly smaller ecological footprint than other similar sized centres.

Where: The Northern Road, Oran Park
Council: Camden
Area: 230 ha (approximately)
What's proposed: Over 2,000 dwellings, commercial town centre, retirement village, public open space, riparian conservation corridors, community and leisure facilities and schools.
Our role: Landcom is partnering with Greenfields Development Corporation to develop the largest landholding within the southwest growth centre. Our role is to deliver the first 2,000 lots in the larger, 8,000 lot Oran Park precinct.
Where it's up to: Planning phase. The first residential lots will be available in early 2010.
Features: This project represents a unique opportunity for Landcom to work with the Growth Centres Commission to coordinate the major infrastructure required for the southwest growth centre. It enables us to set the benchmark on diversity of housing, dwelling density, urban design, infrastructure and town centre delivery for the development that will follow.
