The Planning Process

Amara Cremorne by Pathways received State Significant Development Application (SSDA) approval for a high-quality seniors living and residential aged care residence at 50–88 Parraween Street and 59–67 Gerard Streete in April 2025.

The approved development includes:

• 58 independent living units across three four-storey buildings and one seven-storey building

• A 41-bed residential aged care facility

• Active street frontages designed to complement and enhance the surrounding neighbourhood

• A landscaped pedestrian link providing public access through the site

• Two levels of basement parking for residents, staff and visitors

• Retention and adaptive reuse of six heritage-listed cottages on Parraween Street

The final approved project design responded to community feedback received throughout the SSDA process including:

• retention of the cottages from 78-88 Parraween Street

• removal of rooftop terraces from all buildings to protect privacy of our neighbours

• reduction fo the height of the building on Gerard Street from 8 storeys to 7 storeys

• reconfiguration of the green space to improve accessibility.

We are pleased to have secured project approval for a high quality design that is integrated with the local neighbourhood and will add value to the local community.
