Under the plan, which will include residential, office and retail space, at least five per cent of homes will be affordable housing and 70 apartments will be set aside for social housing. There will be new community facilities, more trees planted and two new public plazas at Cope Street and Raglan Street.
The Consortium will work closely with local community groups to create a placemaking strategy which supports local community involvement and investment in the future outcomes of the development.

Mirvac's CEO & Managing Director, Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz commented that Waterloo is a "once in a generation" opportunity to drive genuine social renewal, driven by the Government's vision to create a world-class, integrated station development which supports economic development and genuine placemaking outcomes for the broader precinct.
