Functional excellence

Civic Place is to be environmentally sustainable, demonstrating leadership by local government in the planning, design, construction and operation of public buildings. The venues, facilities and public spaces at Civic Place are to be functionally excellent – demonstrating efficient, clever and practical design that clearly responds to the client brief and community needs.

The architecture is to be innovative and iconic – making an outstanding contribution to the public realm and defining clearly the identity of the northern region of Sydney. Above all, Civic Place is to be accessible by all sectors of the community, irrespective of ability, age or financial circumstances.
