In The Making
Welcome to the second edition of In the Making, Landcom's newsletter for our customers, partners and stakeholders.
Marking 50 years of making homes happen, this edition captures the pace and variety of our work, from new construction approaches to sustainable, community-first design.
In this edition, we share how surplus government land in Tweed Heads could help deliver hundreds of new homes, how a construction pilot at Schofields is helping us test innovative building methods, and how new communities are taking shape in East Lismore, Bomaderry and Orange. We also highlight a new partnership with UNSW Sydney that is encouraging the next generation of architects to tackle real-world housing challenges.
Thank you for following our journey as we continue making homes and communities happen across NSW.
Final-year university students take on Landcom competition
As part of Landcom’s 50th anniversary celebrations, we’re proud to support the next generation of housing leaders.
26 Aug 2026As part of Landcom’s 50th anniversary celebrations, we’re proud to support the next generation of housing leaders.
Landcom’s new design competition with University of New South Wales Sydney, is challenging more than 30 final-year Master of Architecture students to develop housing concepts based on a real Landcom project.
Using The Joinery at Annandale as their case study, students are working with real planning controls, site constraints and community expectations to explore how more homes can be delivered without compromising design quality, affordability or sustainability.
The competition connects academic learning with the realities of housing delivery, giving students practical experience tackling some of the same challenges faced by planners, architects and developers every day.
The initiative reflects our commitment to supporting future industry leaders and encouraging innovative ideas that can help shape better housing outcomes for NSW.

26 Aug 2026At Schofields in Sydney’s north-west, we are exploring how new building approaches could support future housing delivery through a pilot project using Modern Methods of Construction (MMC).
The pilot involves nine terrace homes that have been manufactured in sections within a controlled factory environment before being transported to site for assembly.
Importantly, this is a pilot project. The goal is not simply to build nine homes differently. It is to learn where MMC can add value, where challenges remain and how these methods may contribute to future housing delivery across NSW.
The project is helping Landcom better understand how manufacturing, logistics, quality assurance and construction sequencing can work together.
The homes form part of the broader Burdekin Road community, which will provide a diverse mix of housing options, including affordable housing for key workers.
The lessons gained from Schofields will help inform Landcom’s future approach to innovation in housing delivery.
Major milestone on Bomaderry build-to-rent development
Landcom's build-to-rent development in Bomaderry is one step closer to welcoming its first residents.
26 Aug 2026Landcom's build-to-rent development in Bomaderry is one step closer to welcoming its first residents.
The 60-home development has now topped out, marking the completion of the building's highest structural level. Major concreting works are complete, roofing is underway and façade works will soon begin.,
Once complete, the development will provide a mix of apartment sizes designed to suit different household types, lifestyles and budgets.
At least 20 per cent of the homes will be offered as affordable rental housing for low- to moderate-income households, including key workers such as nurses, teachers, childcare educators and retail workers.
The development will help increase housing choice in the Shoalhaven, where many renting households are experiencing rental stress and vacancy rates remain low.
Located within walking distance of Bomaderry railway station, residents will have convenient access to transport, jobs, education and local services, supporting a well-connected community in a growing region.
The project forms part of the NSW Government's broader build-to-rent program, which is increasing housing choice and providing greater rental security for people who want to live and work in regional NSW.
Redleaf recognised as world-leading project for sustainability

26 Aug 2026A new benchmark for sustainable communities has been set in regional NSW, with Redleaf in Orange becoming the first development in the region to achieve a 6 Star Green Star Communities rating from the Green Building Council of Australia.
Developed in partnership with Orange City Council, Redleaf is creating more than just new homes. The future neighbourhood has been designed to support how people live, move and connect, with a strong focus on sustainability, resilience and community wellbeing.
The 6 Star rating is the highest available under the Green Star Communities framework and recognises excellence across a range of areas, including liveability, environmental performance, governance and economic prosperity.
Landcom’s masterplanning for Redleaf has identified opportunities for around 300 homes, including houses, duplexes and townhouses. The development will transform more than 24 hectares of council-owned land creating more housing choice for the Orange community.
Parks, open spaces and active transport connections will be woven throughout the neighbourhood to help create a connected and walkable place to live.
Features recognised as part of the rating include climate resilience initiatives, biodiversity planning, sustainable construction practices and early community engagement. Together, these elements will help create a community that is designed to respond to both current and future needs.
The recognition places Redleaf alongside some of Australia's leading sustainable communities.
Redleaf will launch its first land release to the market this month, following the official opening of the new sales office in August.

26 Aug 2026Landcom and the NSW Reconstruction Authority have revealed new details for how a site in East Lismore can unlock a new flood resilient community of more than 500 new homes.
The draft masterplan includes a mix of terraces, duplexes, detached homes and relocated buyback homes, creating more housing choice for local residents.
The plan also includes at least 20 per cent affordable housing for very low- to moderate-income households, helping more people access well-located homes in a region experiencing significant housing pressure.
Landcom and the NSW Reconstruction Authority have designed the proposed neighbourhood with resilience in mind. Increased tree canopy, water-sensitive urban design, walkable streets and housing located away from flood-prone areas will help create a sustainable community that responds to the region's environment and climate challenges.
It’s the latest step in addressing housing shortages in the Northern Rivers while supporting long-term recovery following the 2022 floods.
Eligible participants in the Resilient Homes Program will receive priority access to land and homes before any remaining properties are released to the broader market.
To help deliver homes sooner, Landcom is progressing Stage 1 of the development in parallel with planning for the broader 72-hectare community. Stage 1 is expected to deliver around 100 homes, while community feedback on the draft masterplan will help refine the long-term vision for future stages of the neighbourhood.
New homes planned for former Tweed Heads hospital site
Finding housing in Tweed Heads has become increasingly difficult, with one of the lowest rental vacancy rates in NSW.
26 Aug 2021Finding housing in Tweed Heads has become increasingly difficult, with one of the lowest rental vacancy rates in NSW. Landcom is helping address that challenge through plans for around 800 new homes on the former Tweed Hospital site.
Located on the corner of Powell and Florence streets, the site has transferred from NSW Health to Landcom and presents an opportunity to transform surplus government land into much-needed housing for the region. Plans include a mix of housing options, with up to 10 per cent affordable housing proposed as part of the future community.
Beyond new homes, the vision for the site includes improved public access to the waterfront, new walking and cycling connections, increased tree canopy and attractive public spaces designed to strengthen connections with the surrounding neighbourhood.
Landcom has extensive experience transforming former government and institutional land into thriving communities. Planning for the Tweed Heads site is still in its early stages, with technical studies and community consultation helping shape the future vision. A state significant development application is expected to be lodged in early 2027, subject to planning and approvals processes.
