Sydney housing: Debate rages over skinny six-storey housing plan for narrow Alexandria block A skinny multi-storey tower, slated for a narrow block of land roughly the same width as an average carparking space, could be a sign of Sydney’s housing future as development ramps up near the city’s train stations.
Development plans show a six-storey building could soon be added on thin vacant block of land wedged between two other apartment buildings in Alexandria, as part of a $5.8m housing proposal near the new Waterloo Metro station.
However, developer Blueshore Development Group’s plans stated the five-apartment project amounted to “optimal density” for the narrow 271sq m site and argued the project would help address Sydney’s housing needs.
