Breaking away from the concrete jungles of the Inner City, Penrith will become one of the most liveable places in Metropolitan Sydney and beyond.
Regatta Park
Council is embarking on the $24 million Regatta Park project which will upgrade the existing park for events and active play, with better access to the beautiful Nepean River. The upgrade will be jointly funded, with $15 million coming from the Australian and NSW Governments and $9 million from Council.

Soper Place
The new development goes far beyond parking; the design includes open green spaces, restaurants, a rooftop venue and even a basketball court. The tower will have commercial space and 600+ new parking spaces, bringing the total to 820 spots, while the low rise section will have space for play, performance, markets and music.

City Park
This $12 million project has been an aspiration of the Penrith community since 2006. A 7,500sqm pocket of land on the corner of Henry and Station Streets is set to be transformed into a central urban green space, right in the heart of our City Centre.
Creating a green heart for the community to relax and enjoy will encourage vitality, increased amenity and unlock the potential of our City Centre.
