TAKE a look inside Barangaroo. In the first sneak peak, the Streets of Barangaroo were opened to the public at 8am today.

The corridors of steel towers lead from Hickson Rd to a waterfront walkway with sweeping views of Darling Harbour.

What was once a shipping container yard has almost been completely transformed.

The middle tower of the three marquee towers was officially opened today, as Westpac and St George staff were shown through their new, lavish offices — which includes a ground floor Toby’s Estate coffee bar.

The final product for an iconic project to carry Sydney forward, started with the opening of tower two.

The $6 billion project will be made up of three zones: Baranagroo South, Barangaroo Central and Barangaroo Point — all three are still under construction.

Barangaroo Central will contain low-rise residential, commercial and civic buildings — this area will also contain the Crown Casino.

There will also be a 6 hectare park called Barangaroo Point.

Open public space and new water areas will cover 50 per cent of the 22 hectare site.

Residential, retail and commercial buildings will eventually cater for up to 23,000 workers and 2000 residents.

Today was the first time in 100 years that Sydneysiders were able to access the area.

And they took full advantage, with hundreds of passersby strolling through to take in a view seen by very few in the past century.

Barangaroo South

A hub for the financial services sector this major new extension of the city centre will also include apartments, a major hotel, shops, cafes, restaurants and cultural venues. A pedestrian link will connect Barangaroo South with public transport at Wynyard and the city centre.

Significant sustainability standards, such as efficient energy use have been set for 300,000 square metres of dedicated office space within the precinct.

Barangaroo Central

Commercial spaces are expected to sit alongside public facilities like parks and public spaces in the last part of the Barangaroo development that is still being defined. Community spaces could include areas for festivals, entertainment and arts and culture.

The development brief for Barangaroo Central is evolving to take into account its surrounding areas — including the overall development of the Barangaroo site.

Headland Park

The foreshore park at the northern end of Barangaroo where the site meets Millers Point will cover 6 hectares of sprawling space open to the public. Headland Park will become a new destination for locals and visitors to enjoy a slice of Sydney Harbour.

Tidal rock pools will be carved out of sandstone from the site with bush walks, grass areas and cycling paths meandering through the park.

A new cultural venue will also be built with a floor area of between 10,000 to 20,000 square metres. The venue will include an underground car park with 300 spaces.
