As an urban planner, I've spent years thinking about how cities actually work on the ground. What concerns me about this application is that it hasn't adequately demonstrated whether infrastructure in Wickham, Newcastle West and around the Newcastle Interchange can genuinely support a development of this scale.

My main objection is around community infrastructure. The real question here isn't whether a tower can technically be built — it's whether the applicant has shown this will deliver a fair, workable and safe outcome for the area.

The proposed height and scale only reinforce this concern. I believe the application is being pushed through before these fundamental questions have been properly answered.

As a local resident, I strongly object to the development application and accompanying rezoning proposal of the Mixed-use development at 10 Dangar Street, Wickham. Newcastle Council envisages a village lifestyle for the suburb of Wickham and establishing a 152m building is not in keeping with that vision. Should the application be approved, there will be negative impacts to the environment and a loss of community character. The current Wickham Masterplan 2021, adopted in 2022, recognised the opportunity of this piece of land and acknowledged this by seeking to increase the FSR and maximum building size – which was subsequently approved. This proposal, however, seeks to grossly expand upon those concessions. Previous approvals of the site to establish a building at 60m in height are far more in keeping with the area whilst balancing the growing housing, social and economic needs.

After perusing the associated materials and noting the repeated arguments in favour of this project outlined by the developer, I highly suspect this project will be approved despite any opposing submissions. My chief fear however is it will set a precedent for further development in the area, which will allow future development applications to cite this development as justification for erecting buildings of this height or above. This fear is compounded by the fact that every time I read an update of this proposal, there is an incremental increase to the size of the project. Evidence of this includes the pre-development application which describes a 38-storey building approximately 117m tall. This increases in the scoping report to a 39-storey building with a maximum height of 133m and FSR of 13:1, whereas the application increases the sizes again to request a 43-storey building with maximum height of 152m and a FSR of 14.4:1. Whilst the current plans appear to be for a 133m building, I suspect should the application be approved, the building design will be amended to ensure the maximum values are reached, further negatively impacting the area.

The Wickham Masterplan reiterates the area adjoining the proposed development to be of village character and supports this by restricting building heights. It designates the Dangar Street site in the Rail precinct and notes that existing structures in this corridor have benefited from ‘generous development standards’ (Wickham Masterplan 2021, p. 13) and future development will ‘maintain a transition down to integrate with the lower scale Village Hub precinct fronting Bishopsgate Street' (Wickham Masterplan 2021, p. 13). Consequently, approving a structure of this size at this site fails to acknowledge the concessions already made to support growth, and conflicts with these future focused principles.

Approval of this application would greatly increase pedestrian and vehicle traffic which would lead to an accumulation of negative environmental impacts to existing and future residents. These include but are not limited to, increased air, noise, and light pollution, along with reduced natural light and increased wind. This application seeks to more than double the previously approved development application and if approved, would greatly extend construction time, which would further negatively contribute to environmental and noise pollution in the area.

A further reason to justify my opposition to this development and rezoning application is because two of the three frontages are on small residential roads which are of insufficient size to accommodate expected traffic generation. Development will also reduce the parking opportunities for visitors of current residents. It is naïve to assume parking spaces in the proposed building will be sufficient for the number of residents, resident visitors, and expected guests and staff of the hotel and commercial spaces. Increased traffic congestion and inability to secure parking for residents and visitors would negatively contribute to the intended village vibe of the suburb.

I consider the conclusion in the scoping report that a building at least 133m tall – and possibly 152m tall – is in keeping with the permitted or actual skyline to be misleading. Whilst acknowledging this area borders the western end of the Newcastle CBD, the suburb of Wickham is not part of said CBD, and thus it is not suitable to compare the maximum heights of the CBD to this proposal. Contrary to the argument it is in keeping with the size of the currently permissible building heights, when viewed in the opposite direction to the western end of the CBD it is almost four times taller than some of neighbouring buildings which already overshadow existing dwellings of the suburb. Additionally, the Visual Impact Report found the development would have a ‘moderate to severe’ impact on two viewpoints and a ‘severe’ impact from another viewpoint which conflicts with the opinion it will blend in with its surroundings.

Finally, I would like to include an observation I consider should be of relevance when new developments are being approved within the Newcastle area. There are already a number of empty ground level retail spaces in recently constructed buildings throughout Newcastle including along Honeysuckle and National Park Street. Elsewhere there is high turnover of failed businesses on ground level retail sites including 38 Hannell St, Wickham. Accordingly, there seems little argument for additional retail space to be established if there is already an oversupply in the area.

I am not against development in the area and appreciate the favourable location of this site and the opportunities it can provide. What I am opposed to is the inflated size and scope of this project. Amendments to original planning laws and development applications have already been approved to better serve the community through providing additional housing within this development and these should be retained. The increase in building size associated with this application is not in keeping with the character of the suburb and will have greater negative impacts than positive for the local community.

I am writing to object to the proposed development at 10 Dangar Street, Wickham, currently being assessed under the State Significant Development Housing Diversity and Affordability (HDA) pathway.

As a resident whose east‑facing outlook directly adjoins this site, I will be severely impacted by the scale and nature of this proposal. The original concept for this site was 13 storeys—a height that aligned with the character and planning expectations of the area. The current proposal for 43 storeys is an extreme and unjustified departure from what residents were ever led to believe would be built here.
1. Extreme Height Increase and Departure from Planning Controls
The developer seeks a rezoning to 117m, yet the design shows a tower reaching 145–150m (43 storeys). This is:
- 250% higher than the original 45m limit, and
- 150% higher than the 60m height allowed under the Wickham Masterplan.
This proposal ignores the Masterplan entirely and undermines years of community, Council, and expert planning work.

2. Direct Impact on My Property
A 43‑storey tower immediately east of my home will:
- Remove natural light,
- Dominate and overshadow my outlook,
- Reduce privacy,
- Create a canyon‑like environment,
- Significantly diminish amenity and liveability.
Residents purchased and invested in this area with the understanding that development would follow the Masterplan and the previously approved 13‑storey concept. This proposal fundamentally changes the character and conditions of the neighbourhood.
3. Misuse of Affordable Housing Incentives
Under the HDA pathway, a 30% height uplift is permitted only if 15% affordable housing is provided for 15 years, allowing a maximum height of 78m
This proposal far exceeds that and does not address the City of Newcastle’s requirement for 1% affordable housing in perpetuity**.
Affordable housing should not be used as a loophole to justify extreme height.

Additional Concerns
4. Water Pressure and Essential Services
There is no evidence that Newcastle’s water infrastructure can support a tower of this height, which requires specialised pumps and pressure systems.
5. Inadequate Management of Communal Living
Communal kitchens and shared living areas are proposed without any clear management standards, raising concerns about hygiene, safety, and long‑term maintenance.
6. Emergency Evacuation Risks
There is no explanation of how elderly or mobility‑impaired residents would be evacuated down dozens of flights of stairs during an emergency.
7. No Supporting Infrastructure
The proposal offers no new infrastructure to support the density—no open space, community facilities, or transport upgrades.
8. Segregated Entries
Separate entries for different housing types create a socially divisive “poor door” arrangement.
9. Traffic Impacts
The development will worsen congestion on Hunter Street, Stewart Avenue, Hannell Street, Wharf Road, and the Interchange precinct—already critical arteries for the Hunter Region.
10. Solar and Energy Impacts
A tower of this height will cast extensive shadows over surrounding buildings, reducing solar access and increasing energy consumption.
11. Fire Safety and Response Capacity
There is no evidence that Fire & Rescue NSW has the equipment or reach to respond effectively to a fire in a 43‑storey building.
Conclusion

This roposal is excessive, unsafe, and inconsistent with Newcastle’s planning controls and the Wickham Masterplan. It places developer interests above community wellbeing, liveability, and safety.

I urge the Department to reject the proposal and require any future application to comply with the established planning framework and the expectations set when this site was originally proposed as a 13‑storey development.

Thank you for considering my submission. Please keep me informed of all future updates.

Sincerely,
Dr Kristy Lane

With the additional units that have been popping up over the years in this once quite suburb, it has become congested and the once friendly vibe has cooled to indifference, this tower will be the final nail, there is already enough development here and a tower that size is overkill, the historic roads can't take the capacity, the area is inadequate, biggest mistake was stopping the rail at Wickham, just caused more issues. Dealing with enough here, build it elsewhere.

Submission regarding SSD89869959 at 10 Dangar Street Wickham
I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed development located at 10 Dangar Street Wickham. As a resident of Bishopsgate Street living in the immediate vicinity of the site, I witness the daily consequences of overdevelopment in our neighbourhood. Our community is already struggling with narrow roads, damaged footpaths, poor drainage, severe traffic congestion, illegal parking, graffiti, anti-social behaviour, and dropping water pressure. This application does not represent a reasonable affordable housing initiative. Instead, it introduces an extreme high rise tower to a small suburb that cannot sustain it. The proposal outlines a massive 43-storey mixed-use development containing roughly 200 dwellings including 42 affordable housing units, alongside 99 co-living units, minimal parking facilities, retail spaces, hotel rooms, and a public plaza. This is an immense structure that does not belong here.

The scale is inappropriate for Wickham:
The City of Newcastle has highlighted major concerns regarding how heavily this proposal departs from the Newcastle LEP and the Wickham Masterplan. Local planning strategies designed building heights to decrease as they transition into the suburb and the Village Hub, rather than spiking upward with an isolated tower. The developer is requesting a height of 133 meters, which completely dwarfs the current 60 meter height limit and the 7 to 1 floor space ratio. Under normal circumstances without incentives, this site is restricted to 45 meters and a 6 to 1 floor space ratio. This massive departure contradicts the strategic vision for the Wickham Masterplan and fails to justify the requested density. A building of this size will overwhelm Bishopsgate Street, Grey Street, Charles Street, and Station Street. Wickham is already struggling to absorb major redevelopments like The Store and Dairy Farmers Corner, and it cannot handle another massive high rise project.

Local roads are unsafe:
The current traffic volumes on Bishopsgate Street, Grey Street, Charles Street, and Station Street are already unmanageable. Some of these roads are narrow one way streets. Motorists frequently drive the wrong way down Bishopsgate and Grey Streets just to escape gridlock. Traffic regularly backs up toward Hannell Street while drivers attempt to exit safely. Access to the Interchange is already compromised. We constantly deal with double parking, poor compliance with traffic laws, delivery vans, rideshare vehicles, taxis, and commuter drop offs on narrow residential roads. Adding hundreds of new residents, hotel patrons, co living occupants, visitors, and commercial vehicles will worsen these conditions.
Footpaths along Bishopsgate Street are narrow and uneven. Many residents are forced to walk on the road because the pathways are too uneven to navigate safely. A project of this magnitude should never be approved until functional footpaths, proper drainage, street lighting, pedestrian crossings, and accessibility upgrades are fully implemented.

Utility services are already compromised:
Before granting any approval, the Department must demand independent verification that the water, sewerage, and firefighting networks can handle this development alongside all other approved and pending local projects. Hunter Water guidelines require a pressure and flow statement to confirm network capacity, and servicing strategies must account for neighboring developments. Current households should not suffer from degraded utility services just because developers are permitted to overload local infrastructure.

Social impacts and safety needs to be addressed:
While I support well planned and genuinely integrated affordable housing, I cannot support concentrating affordable housing, co living spaces, hotel units, and high density apartments into a single tower without matching social infrastructure. Newcastle is already experiencing a shortage of support services for mental health, homelessness, and domestic violence, and we see people sleeping rough on nearby streets. Introducing a large transient population of co living occupants and short term hotel guests raises safety concerns regarding neighborhood cohesion, noise, anti social behavior, and safety for women and children. A single building manager is completely inadequate for a complex of this size. The social impacts of this project need to be recognised and planned for.

Community benefits versus developer's gain:
The Wickham Community Infrastructure Plan requires that increases in height and floor space must be balanced by tangible community contributions. Council has noted that any planning agreement must reflect the massive uplift in height and floor space ratio being requested. A tiny laneway or a token public plaza is not enough for a tower of this scale. If the developer stands to make massive financial gains, Wickham must receive significant lasting infrastructure upgrades including advanced drainage, upgraded footpaths, better lighting, green spaces, traffic calming measures, and genuine community hubs.

Technical risks remain unaddressed:
Council has rightly recommended that this proposal requires extensive independent studies covering stormwater management, water cycle impacts, flood risks, social impacts, crime prevention through environmental design, accessibility, acoustics, wind tunnel effects, visual impacts, and traffic flow. These are critical safety evaluations that directly affect the lives of current residents.

Conclusion:
This development application should be rejected in its current form because it is simply too large and dense for Wickham. It will severely worsen traffic congestion, pedestrian hazards, flooding, parking shortages, water pressure issues, and community stress. It ignores the strategic direction of the Wickham Masterplan and forces existing residents to bear the costs of overdevelopment. At the very least, the height and density must be drastically reduced or just utilise the existing approved DA. No approval should be considered until utility capacity, stormwater systems, traffic management, and social support services are independently proven and fully funded.

I write to formally object to the proposed development at 10 Dangar Street, Wickham.
My objection is not to development, urban renewal, or appropriate residential growth within Wickham. Growth is an important part of Newcastle's future, and well-designed development can contribute positively to the community. However, this particular proposal represents an extreme level of density and intensity that is disproportionate to the site, surrounding area, and existing community infrastructure.
The application repeatedly refers to community benefits and positive urban outcomes. However, upon review, the overwhelming beneficiary of this proposal appears to be the developer rather than the existing or future community. The scale of the project suggests a focus on maximising residential yield and financial return rather than creating a balanced, sustainable and liveable environment.
The density proposed for this site is excessive. Regardless of broader planning objectives, there must be a point at which density becomes unreasonable and begins to undermine the very outcomes that development is intended to achieve. This proposal crosses that threshold.
A development of this scale will introduce an extraordinary concentration of residents into a relatively small footprint. The result will be increased pressure on local streets, public spaces, transport networks, parking availability and community facilities. While the application presents density as a positive planning outcome, it fails to adequately acknowledge the cumulative impacts of concentrating such a large number of people within a confined area.
The proposal also appears inconsistent with the concept of creating a healthy and connected community. Healthy communities are not simply measured by the number of dwellings delivered. They are created through thoughtful design, appropriate population levels, access to infrastructure, adequate open space, manageable traffic volumes, and environments where residents can enjoy a reasonable quality of life.
This proposal instead risks creating an environment characterised by overcrowding, congestion and declining amenity.
Of particular concern is the impact on local streets and public spaces. Wickham is already experiencing significant pressure from population growth and increased residential activity. The introduction of such a large number of additional residents in a single development will inevitably intensify existing issues relating to traffic, parking demand, noise and overcrowding.
Parking availability throughout the area is already limited. Residents frequently compete for available spaces and surrounding streets are often congested. The addition of a development of this magnitude is likely to further increase parking pressures, regardless of whether minimum planning requirements are technically satisfied. The lived reality for residents often differs significantly from modelling assumptions presented in development applications.
The proposal also raises concerns regarding noise and community amenity. The sheer number of residents proposed within one structure will inevitably increase activity levels, vehicle movements, deliveries, visitors and general impacts on surrounding properties. These impacts should not be dismissed simply because they are difficult to quantify.
Importantly, the development's scale appears fundamentally disconnected from the character and capacity of the surrounding area. It is not the existence of a residential building that is problematic; it is the extraordinary intensity with which this site is being developed. The proposal seeks to accommodate an exceptionally large population within a single structure, creating a built form that feels driven by maximising development potential rather than integrating appropriately into the existing community.
The application promotes concepts such as community, connectivity and activation. However, there is little evidence that the development will genuinely strengthen the Wickham community. Community is not created through density alone. Community is created through balanced growth, quality public spaces, manageable population levels, social cohesion and a built environment that supports resident wellbeing.
This proposal risks achieving the opposite outcome. Rather than enhancing community, it may contribute to increased congestion, competition for limited resources, reduced amenity and a diminished sense of place.
The development also sets a concerning precedent for future proposals. If a development of this scale and density is considered acceptable on this site, it sends a message that there are effectively no meaningful limits on the intensity of development that can be pursued within Wickham. Planning controls exist to ensure growth occurs in a way that balances economic outcomes with community interests. In this case, that balance appears to have been lost.
Ultimately, this proposal asks the community to absorb the impacts of an extraordinarily dense development while offering limited tangible benefits in return. The primary outcome appears to be the creation of a highly profitable development rather than a project that meaningfully improves the lives of existing residents or contributes positively to the long-term future of Wickham.
For these reasons, I respectfully request that Council refuse the application. The scale, density and intensity of the proposed development are excessive, inconsistent with the creation of a healthy and sustainable community, and place private development interests ahead of broader community outcomes.
Yours faithfully

I'm concerned this application hasn't adequately demonstrated that a building of this scale can be built without causing serious problems for the area, the Newcastle Interchange precinct, and Newcastle West more broadly.

My main concern centres on wind impacts. The wind tunnel testing has flagged significant safety issues on the upper-level balconies, and the mitigation strategy still needs verification. I don't think it's reasonable to ask the community to accept this kind of impact without much stronger evidence that it can actually be managed.

Newcastle's harbour edge is almost fully built, and the few sites still to be decided will shape the city's waterfront for generations. The land at 10 Dangar Street is one of them, and a proposal for a site of that consequence deserves to be held to a high standard. This one does not meet it. I write as a resident who would welcome more housing in Newcastle, including on this site. My objection is not to development, but to a building that asks for a significant exception to the rules every other project on this waterfront must observe, and justifies that exception with reasons that do not bear weight.

A decision the city will live with for a long time

Whatever is approved here will stand for the rest of our lifetimes and well beyond, and it will set the reference point for every application that follows on the surrounding land. A building permitted to exceed the agreed height on this block becomes the argument the next developer uses to exceed it on theirs. Decisions of this kind are where a city either keeps faith with the plan it has set for itself or surrenders it in increments. That is why the scale of this proposal matters well beyond the boundaries of the site.

A height the controls do not permit

The planning controls for this part of Wickham set a clear ceiling on building height, and the proposal stands well above it at roughly 38 to 40 storeys. The site was previously approved at a far lower scale. A departure of this magnitude is not a minor variation to be waved through on the strength of housing numbers. It is a wholesale change to what the area was planned to accommodate, and the onus rests on the applicant to show it is warranted. That case has not been made in its EIS statements - and the case for substantially higher density is weakened heavily by the new honeysuckle HQ .


The benchmark across the road

The State Government has just announced Newcastle Quay, the redevelopment of the Honeysuckle HQ land immediately to the north. It is a masterplanned precinct expected to deliver around 1000 homes, a hotel and substantial public space, and it achieves this while keeping its buildings within the waterfront's height limits, lowering them towards the water and holding open deliberate view corridors through the site. The Government's own flagship project therefore demonstrates that this waterfront can absorb very large quantities of housing without exceeding the agreed scale. If 1000 homes can be delivered next door within the rules, the argument that this single tower must break them to make its far smaller contribution does not survive. The additional height is not the price of delivering housing but additional saleable floor area, and the public is being asked to absorb the cost of it in overshadowing, in lost outlook, and in the precedent it leaves behind.

Sunlight taken from homes that already exist

The applicant's own environmental impact statement makes the most immediate harm plain. The shadow study prepared for the application shows the tower casting shadow across a number of residential buildings immediately to its south, through the morning hours. In examining the EIS the study is modelled on the spring equinox, the midpoint of the solar year. The impact will be worse through winter, when the sun sits lowest and direct light is most valued,

A form that gives little back to the street

The design compounds these problems rather than easing them. The proposal is a single very large cylindrical tower that makes little concession to the lower scale and heritage character of Wickham, or to the buildings already established around it. Set against the Newcastle Quay approach, which breaks its bulk into separate buildings and steps them down at the sensitive edges, the contrast is not a flattering one. Newcastle is assembling a new skyline in real time, and the buildings that compose it should be judged on what they contribute to the city, not on the floor area they extract from a site.

Affordable housing, and what it is being used to justify

I recognise that affordable housing forms part of the case for the additional height, and more affordable housing in Newcastle is something I strongly support. The difficulty is one of proportion. The affordable component is modest measured against the size of the building, yet it is being used as the lever to unlock a height the controls would otherwise refuse. If the genuine objective is more affordable housing on the harbour, this is an inefficient way to secure a small amount of it

Conclusion

I am asking for a building that observes the same controls as every other project on this waterfront, designed with proper regard for sunlight, outlook and the character of the area. A building of that kind would still bring new homes to Wickham. It would do so without taking light from the homes beside it, and without establishing that the height limits on Newcastle's harbour are available to any developer willing to ask for more. I ask that the application be refused in its current form, or amended substantially so that it sits within the controls that govern the rest of this waterfront.

My concerns re SSD - 89869959
1. Administrative Errors & Careless Work
The developer's documentation contains clear errors that indicate generic copy-pasting from old templates without proper local context:
Appendix D (Mitigation Measures): Lists Sydney Water as the responsible authority for wastewater instead of Hunter Water (10 Dangar ... p. 2).
Appendix EE (NABERS Form): Lists Sydney as the town/city instead of Newcastle (10 Dangar ... p. 3).
Appendix H (Engagement Report): Claims the engagement ran from September 2026 – February 2026, which is an impossible, backwards timeline (10 Dangar ... p. 4).

2. Lack of Detail on NDIS Accommodation
The Issue: Appendix MM (Social Impact Assessment) notes that 15 two-bedroom units will be for NDIS accommodation, alongside 1 one-bedroom unit for overnight assistance (10 Dangar ... p. 5).
The Critique: Despite these figures, there is no clear design integration or structural details showing how these units satisfy physical accessibility. Appendix WW (Accessibility Compliance Report) reads more like a "list of things to do" rather than a binding, detailed promise or strategy (10 Dangar ... p. 9).

3. Inadequate Construction Complaint Mechanisms
The Issue: While Appendix U (PCTMP) promises that nearby residents will get regular updates and a phone number for the site manager, it provides no clear framework for accountability (10 Dangar ... p. 8).
The Critique: There are no formal, transparent protocols or escalation pathways detailed for when the developer breaches their strict consent conditions, such as blocking external street access, storing items off-site, or ignoring delivery time limits (10 Dangar ... p. 8).

4. Specific Critiques of the Requested Appendices
Appendix AA (Landscape Design Report): Implies a bike thoroughfare through public ground levels, but lacks detail on how high density and pedestrian safety will interact (10 Dangar ... p. 2).
Appendix D (Ongoing Mitigation Measures): Demonstrates careless work by naming the wrong water utility provider (Sydney Water) (10 Dangar ... p. 2).
Appendix E (DCP Assessment Table): Highlights massive density over-saturation with 245 apartments, 99 co-living units, and 177 hotel rooms crammed onto the site (10 Dangar ... p. 3).
Appendix EE (NABERS Embodied Emissions): Erroneously identifies the city location as Sydney (10 Dangar ... p. 3).
Appendix G (Community Housing Provider Letter): Relies on MyLife Community Housing. While registered, CHPs can lose registration for insolvency or mismanagement, risking affordable housing operations (10 Dangar ... p. 3).
Appendix I (Pre-DA Meeting Advice): City of Newcastle officers explicitly stated the building is not supported due to extensive, fundamental, and structural issues with height and safety (10 Dangar ... p. 4).
Appendix K1 (SDRP Advice Meeting 1): The State Design Review Panel made numerous critical suggestions on the developer's earlier structural layout (10 Dangar ... p. 4).
Appendix K2 (SDRP Advice Meeting 2): The panel noted that the ground plane, colonnade, and landscape must be further developed to handle the proposed density safely (10 Dangar ... p. 5).
Appendix KK (CDWMP): Shows the developer is only committing to the 15% affordable housing layout for a minimum of 15 years, rather than a permanent community benefit (10 Dangar ... p. 5).
Appendix MM (Social Impact Assessment): Reveals highly elevated population statistics and fails to fully resolve community concerns raised during early feedback rounds (10 Dangar ... p. 5).
Appendix N (Connecting with Country Report): Admits that Awabakal Traditional Custodian engagement is still "currently being developed," showing minimal initial input (10 Dangar ... p. 5).
Appendix OO (CPTED Report): Concludes with three full pages of security recommendations, proving the current design inherently invites high crime risks (10 Dangar ... p. 6).
Appendix S (Transport Impact Assessment): Outlines a massive traffic generation of 213.2 vehicles per hour in AM peaks. Notes that a high water table prevents building extra basement parking (10 Dangar ... p. 7).
Appendix U (PCTMP): Admits the building is built-to-boundary, meaning trucks cannot load inside the site and must block parts of the Charles Street frontage compound (10 Dangar ... p. 8).
Appendix WW (Accessibility Compliance Report): Fails to provide concrete, binding spatial layouts for disabled access, functioning purely as a generic checklist (10 Dangar ... p. 9).
