Global developer, Poly (Australia) Real Estate Development Pty Ltd has celebrated the start of construction of its landmark $344 million Poly Horizon project in Epping.
The ground-breaking comes on the back of the project achieving strong sales results with 70% of all apartments released to date now sold, equating to more than $206 million.
The project comprises 501 apartments across three residential towers, including a 21-storey tower, a 22-storey tower and a seven-storey tower. Poly received DA approval from the North Sydney Joint Regional Planning Panel (JRPP) in February 2016. The approval also includes 1,000sqm of ground level retail and over 3,500sqm of community and park space.
Poly Managing Director Arthur Wang said since acquiring the site in January 2015, Poly has worked closely with Hornsby Council to ensure that the development is delivered to the highest standards and will meet the needs of Epping’s growing population.
“We will continue to work closely with the City of Parramatta Council with the change in local government area boundaries,” Mr Wang said.
“Through the delivery of Poly Horizon, Poly’s vision is to contribute to the long-term transformation and revitalisation of Epping as one of Sydney’s key growth suburbs.”
