Penrith is undergoing some exciting changes as it evolves into a world-class city and destination. Extensive planning and work are underway for city-shaping projects in our eastern city centre, such as the Sydney Metro – Western Sydney Airport rail link, which will start in St Marys. The St Marys Central Park project is an integral part of Council’s aspirations to support a heart for the Town Centre as identified in the St Marys Town Centre Structure Plan.
The new park will be the civic green heart of St Marys, attracting residents and visitors into the Town Centre to meet, socialise, enjoy passive and active recreation, and enjoy events and performances, with a key feature of the design an entertainment area for people to enjoy local and regional talent. The new central park will also feature a new children’s playspace including water play, lawn area, trees, pathways, lighting, and more.
This project will help stimulate the local economy and create an important connection between Queen Street, Coachmans Park, Ripples, local shopping precincts, facilities, and infrastructure.
The St Marys Central Park project is funded through the NSW Government’s Western Sydney Infrastructure Grants Program ($21 million) and Council.
