DA-2014/103 for 544 Pacific Highway proposes demolition of an existing commercial building (gas centre, Payless carpets?) and construction of a new mixed-use development comprising three level basement car park, bulky goods retail at ground level and six (6) levels of shop top housing comprising 35 apartments and associated landscaping.

It isn’t clear, but this development might be one storey higher than other approved developments in the area.

From past experience, it is likely that residents in Bowen St will be affected to varying degrees.
