Thirdi and Toohey Miller have won approval for their North Sydney AU$650-million (US$460 million) commercial tower, Warada on Walker. Informed by the 2019 bushfires and ensuing Covid-19 pandemic, Thirdi co-founder Luke Berry said the premium office tower would lead the renewal of the North Sydney CBD alongside Lendlease’s over-station Victoria Cross development. Berry said North Sydney was on the cusp of a boom.
It will be one of the largest commercial office spaces in the North Sydney CBD with more than 27,000 square meters of net lettable area and typical floorplates spanning 1,150 square meters.
Berry said JLL would handle the leasing for the 22-story premium office tower with the bottom third dedicated to flexible working, and that were talks underway with media, advertising, and telecommunications groups for the remainder of the building.
