Parramatta River Transformation

Stewart Street Reserve Escarpment Lookout

With construction anticipated to begin in April 2024, City of Parramatta is excited to be delivering a unique scenic and cultural destination for our community to enjoy.

Stewart Street Reserve, at the heart of the Parramatta River foreshore, will be redesigned to provide a cantilevered viewing platform – a dramatic vantage point from which to enjoy ever-changing views of the Parramatta River.

The $1M project is being jointly funded by the NSW Department of Planning and Environment’s 'Places to Roam' Program ($500k) with the City of Parramatta investing a further $500K in the project to create a vibrant and engaging public space.

The escarpment lookout presents an opportunity for a new gathering space for relaxation, celebration, reflection and enjoyment that is safe and accessible for all users. The plan includes a cantilevered platform structure that would offer views directly over Parramatta River, new paths, seating, feature tree planting and bushland planting.
