    NEWS RICHARD JOHNSON BUILDINGS APPROVED

    In another leap forward for the precinct, Frasers has now received planning approval for the second residential stage of Central Park.

    The NSW Planning Minister, the Hon Tony Kelly, has now granted planning approval for two buildings designed by Richard Johnson of Johnson Pilton Walker.

    The Richard Johnson-designed buildings (as yet un-named) are situated along the eastern edge of Central Park’s main park and have an end value of approximately $310 million.

    Richard Johnson is a multi-award winning Sydney-based architect who has designed public monuments such as the Canberra National Portrait Gallery and the Asian wing of the Art Gallery of NSW.

    The newly-approved buildings feature theatrical facades and abundant landscape on both horizontal and vertical surfaces. The unique facades are composed of sliding glass screens of various sizes, colours and textures – presenting a lively and ever-changing face to the park, and concealing functional loggias spaces.

    The Richard Johnson buildings will be released for sale in the second quarter of 2011.
