Sydney to build 340 apartments on disused WestConnex motorway land
NSW will convert disused WestConnex land in Haberfield into 340 homes. About 30 per cent will be social housing.
Four concrete slabs beside Parramatta Road in Haberfield will become four apartment blocks up to seven storeys high. The blocks were used for motorway work until 2023, then left empty.
About 30 per cent of the 340 homes will be social housing. The site sits on a bus route, near shops, schools and a supermarket.
