The Elizabeth, together with the Rum Store, Engineers’ store and Engineers’ Workshop, form the Boiler House precinct of the former CSR site in Pyrmont. Apartments have been incorporated within and above the historic buildings and the original façade of the old Boiler House has been retained.
New elements have been added to complement and reinforce the character of the existing face brickwork. Public access is provided through the site from Harris Street to the Mount Street Walk on the western side of the precinct. A central landscape courtyard is flanked by the Elizabeth and other buildings providing significant amenity for the development. Commercial space lines the public areas at the waterfront promenade level and public access-ways link key precincts.
