In 2008, the NSW Government announced a redevelopment project at Glebe which will see the area incorporate new, increased social housing, innovative affordable housing and new private housing. Since then, considerable planning work has been completed.
Under the project proposal, some of Housing NSW’s ageing apartment buildings located in Glebe will be replaced. The new homes will be designed to suit the needs of older people, families and people seeking affordable housing close to where they work. There will be no loss of social housing on the site as a result of the redevelopment and the new social housing will be managed by a community housing provider.
