    Zoning at the site

    Zone Z9 - DEV PLAN 2022-2028

    G5 — Open space and amenity

    Z9: Amenity/Open Space Lands/Green Network: To preserve, provide and improve recreational amenity, open space and ecosystem services.

    Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.

    M1 — Metro / rail economic corridor

    Z10: Inner Suburban and inner City Sustainable Mixed-Uses: To consolidate and facilitate the development of inner city and inner suburban sites for mixed-uses.

    A high-density mixed-use employment corridor tied to a rail or metro line. Expect the tallest buildings in the area here.
