In the seven years since the Games, Sydney Olympic Park has continued to provide a magnificent asset to the people of NSW and Australia, offering more than 425 hectares of picturesque parklands, state-of-the-art infrastructure and world-class sporting facilities. Since 2002 the Park has witnessed strong and consistent growth in private investment, visitation and events.The Future - Building a New Town Sydney Olympic Park Authority has a 20 year plan "Vision 2025", that involves an evolutionary process of urban change - a bold and exciting vision that will create the criticial mass of residents, workers, students and visitors required to establish a vibrant and economically sustainable township. The next five years will be the "growth phase" at Sydney Olympic Park, in which a significant level of new development will take place across all sectors including residential, retail, office, health, education, food and beverage and hotels. By 2025 it is anticipated that the Park will support a residential population of up to 15,000 and a daily population of up to 15,000 workers and students. The Authority has already generated land sales valued in excess of $100 million, including securing an agreement with Australia's largest hotel group, Accor, to establish a new five-star Sofitel Hotel at the Park. The new hotel follows recent developments at the Park, which will see nearly $200 million spent on new investment in the precinct. These include a new state-of-the-art building for the NSW Institute of Sport and a 23,000m2 building for the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, which will relocate some 1,400 staff to the Park in 2007. The Authority will continue to facilitate land and property sales and private sector investment in the Park, resulting in increased economic and social returns for the NSW Government. These future developments will play a significant role in the promotion of sustainable urban development outcomes, the creation of a healthy community and the generation of social, environmental and economic returns on investment in Sydney Olympic Park. The development of a new township at Sydney Olympic Park is now under way. We are at the cusp of a very exciting process of urban transformation that will create a special Park that retains its Olympic heritage whilst making a unique place for people to live, work, learn and enjoy the amazing leisure assets available at the Park.
