Update 14 December, 2020. The APA recently participated in a webinar to update the community on the Herbert Street Precinct project (Royal North Shore Hospital). Points of interest: the tower height has been reduced to 45 storeys (from 60 storeys); apartments will be for rent, not for sale; the proposed pedestrian route from the station to the hospital, including new Herbert Street overpass, appears to be uncovered;there is limited green space. WCC has indicated it will identify the following issues in its response to the NSW Government: a positive approach to the treatment of heritage buildings; concern about the scale and height of new buildings; education facility inclusion and reliance on Gore Hill Oval for open space needs.

Update 12 October, 2020. The Artarmon Progress Association strongly objects to the revised plans for the Royal North Shore Hospital site and is concerned about the impact on the immediate and broader community.

The Ministry of Health building, together with the Herbert Street Precinct, removes more than 22 percent of campus land proposed for much needed ambulatory care and clinical support services. With a growing community and ageing population, the NSW Government should be expanding clinical and medical facilities, not reducing them.
