MARRICK AND CO.

Located in Sydney’s inner west, seven kilometres south-west of Sydney’s CBD, Marrick & Co is the first One Planet Living certified community in NSW. The project, on the former Marrickville Hospital site and delivered in partnership with Inner West Council, comprises residential apartments and terrace homes and the award winning new library named ‘Patyegarang Place’. The library was dedicated by Mirvac to Inner West Council along with four percent of the residential apartments for key worker housing. The development, completed in mid-2019, boasts an abundance of open space including ‘The Common’ where fitness classes are hosted in the mornings, a rooftop deck where a kitchen provides residents with BBQ and pizza oven facilities and kitchen gardens for residents to grow their own produce. Significant elements of the site’s rich history have been retained, including the heritage conversion of the main ward building as the new library and the former nurses’ quarters as luxury, whole floor, boutique terrace dwellings. Since completion, the project has won 16 awards including the Milo Dunphy Award for Sustainable Architecture, Sulman Medal for Public Architecture, NSW Premier’s Prize and Greater Sydney Planning Awards for Development Supported by Infrastructure.
