THE PROJECT

The Town Hall House Workplace Project will deliver a comprehensive fit-out guide, asset renewal strategy and design and documentation for upgrade works to create a modern and flexible workplace that matches how we work today and into the future.

Located to the west of Sydney Town Hall on the corner of Kent Street and Druitt Street, Town Hall House is the Citys primary administrative building.

Town Hall House was designed by Archer, Mortlock & Woolley and constructed between 1972 & 1977. The building has undergone progressive upgrades to meet changing operational requirements. This project is the next significant step in upgrading the City's workplace to ensure our staff can continue to do their best work for the community.
