Construction Update
October 2025
What’s happening?
Bulk excavation completion across the site.
We are expecting our next construction certificate (CC2), early October, that will enable us to start digging lift pits and footings.
Mid-October we will start laying the foundations of the buildings.
What’s been happening?
-
What happened:
Demolition is now complete, a major milestone achieved.
Site team fully mobilised with work progressing rapidly.
Shoring wall over 60% complete.
Bulk excavation largely completed in the north-west section of the site.
What this means for the community:
Fewer disruptions now that demolition is complete.
Truck movements continue for spoil removal and concrete deliveries.
Rozelle Village is steadily taking shape, with foundations well underway.
-
What happened:
Piling completed – a major milestone.
Piling forms the deep foundation supports that hold up the entire building. Completing this means the site is ready for basements and above-ground construction.
Capping beams finished.
These concrete beams lock the piles together, creating a solid base for basement walls.
Shotcrete applied to basement walls.
Spray-on concrete that strengthens and waterproofs the basement.
Bulk excavation continued throughout the month
Digging out the earth to create spaces for basements and foundations.
What this means for the community:
Feature Description Location Site of the former Balmain Leagues Club Development Type Mixed-use community with residential and retail Project Status Currently under construction, with completion expected in 2026
Fewer disruptions now that piling complete.

With foundations nearly in place, it will soon be time for Rozelle Village’s vertical ascent!
-
What happened:
