4 Many of the submissions to the Draft Master Plan proposed much higher heights than envisaged by the master plan. This page illustrates the variety of heights proposed from 95 storeys (Billbergia), to 70 storeys (Site 1668), to 45 storeys (Dunnet), to 25–35 storeys (GPT), to 20–30 storeys (YMCI). It is clear that the end result of these proposals would be a much more dynamic and dramatic profile to the centre than the existing masterplan. The City of Parramatta in their submission questioned even the proposed 45 storey heights on the basis that in a hierarchy of centres that Parramatta should dominate. We disagree with this approach on the basis that a new and emerging centre like Sydney Olympic Park should demonstrate its own energy as part of the future growth of Metropolitan Sydney. The spirit of Sydney Olympic Park following the successful Sydney Olympic Games is about record setting and about new innovative directions.
