Sydney will get its first new inner city suburb – known as Bays West – in decades, giving public waterfront access to Glebe Island for the first time in more than 100 years alongside 8,500 new homes.
The New South Wales government on Tuesday announced that a long-awaited overhaul of the government-owned land, directly above the under-construction Bays Metro station and near the western end of the Anzac Bridge, will go ahead.
It means Sydneysiders will farewell Glebe Island’s distinctive 1970s industrial silos as part of the “city-shaping” transformation, which will open up the long-underused site, stretching from Rozelle Bay to White Bay, 2km from the CBD.

The bulk of operations at Sydney Harbour’s last working port will be scrapped to make way for up to 8500 homes built around a metro train station, in a dramatic reshaping of the city’s foreshore that will provide public access to the waterfront for the first time in a century.
In the Bays West precinct near Rozelle, Sydney’s newest suburb will be connected to the CBD by a metro line and ferry services, as well as the long-awaited revamp of the Glebe Island Bridge for a bike and pedestrian route, under a transformation of underutilised government-owned port land.

Where Sydney will get 8500 new waterfront homes within six years
Sydney will get up to 8500 new harbourside homes after the NSW Labor government announced it would move bulk port operations off Glebe Island to make way for a major new housing development.
The precinct two kilometres west of the CBD will include the new Bays West metro station, along with 7000 to 8500 homes – at least 10 per cent of which will be reserved for affordable and essential worker housing – and a minimum of 25 per cent open space. The White Bay Power Station will be used as the hub of a creative precinct.
