DEXUS Property Group has unveiled the first stage development of the Gateway Sydney dining precinct on Alfred Street Circular Quay.
Developed by Dexus Property Group on behalf of Dexus Wholesale Property Fund (DWPF), the $80 million will introduce 25 new dining venues to Circular Quay and the reimagining of the Jessie Street Gardens.
Dexus CEO Darren Steinberg said that the redevelopment of Gateway’s retail precinct will not only enhance the experience of the 2,700 customers within the office tower, it will deliver improved amenity to the Circular Quay precinct.
“The new dining experience will enhance the vibrancy of one of Sydney’s most significant precincts. As the gateway to Sydney Harbour and the CBD, people will be able to enjoy a fantastic selection of dining options on a day/night basis during the week and on weekends,” Steinberg said.
Gateway Sydney also marks the first full concept Sydney CBD locations for Zumbo, Gelato Messina and Four Frogs Creperie, which will be joined by fast growing brand favourites Rolld, Mad Mex, Oporto and Schnitz.
Stage one will be followed by the launch of two further dining floors from mid-September through to October, with Burger Project by Neil Perry, Chat Thai and new Japanese BBQ concept from David Loh, Tokyo Laundry, on level one. An expansive new Hurricanes Grill will feature on level two alongside one of Sydney’s best named laksa houses Jimmy’s Recipe, while a fusion of Italian, Turkish, and Argentinian cuisines will be found at Popina, a co-production from Salt Meats Cheese and North Bondi’s Shuk, which will open as a two-level restaurant and rooftop terrace.
The development of Gateway Sydney also includes the ongoing refurbishment of heritage venues Ship Inn and Paragon Hotel, two of Sydney’s oldest and original hotels. In total the precinct will deliver over 25 new venues to Circular Quay.
