Landscaping plus stairs and lift access to light rail

Here are a couple of images from the early plans for Harbour Mill, including detail on the landscaping and access to the light rail. Some of the detail may have changed since I was given these.

As shown in this artist's impression, stairs will be built to connect Harbour Mill to Wentworth Park station, with a lift at the side. This connects to the paved area at the front of the building where there is provision for a coffee shop or restaurant. What actually goes into this commercial space will depend on the type of business that takes up the lease. These stairs and lift can be used by anybody, so it improves overall access from Pyrmont to the light rail and across to the fish markets. The paved area faces west so it should be a lovely spot for a coffee in the afternoon and early evening as the sun sets, but will probably be in shade in the morning as the sun is on the other side of the building.

Below, you can also see the garden area at the eastern side of the building (the top on this plan) which will be heavily planted with trees and shrubs. Hopefully, this will shield the building somewhat from the road. The atrium inside the building connects directly with this area making a pleasant and open walk through. Plus there is another garden for residents on the northern side, the left side of this plan.

Although not shown on this plan, there is a third communal area on the roof of the four storey part at the southern side of the building. So that's three communal areas exclusively for tenants, and since they are all on different sides of the building, there will always be somewhere to catch the sun.
