EXISTING IMPROVEMENTS

Existing development on the site is illustrated by the plan below and comprises:

the original heritage listed 1848 Scottish Hospital Building with frontage to Cooper Street and its associated heritage gardens and terraces;
a modern four (4) storey extension to the Scottish Hospital Building with frontage to Stephen Street and comprising operating theatres; and
a four (4) storey aged care building providing 88 nursing home and hostel beds with frontage to Brown Street.

The only building currently operational on the site is the aged care building, which is operated by Presbyterian Aged Care NSW & ACT (PAC).

The redevelopment of the site will not result in the relocation or displacement of any of the existing aged care residents. It is intended that the project would be advanced as a staged development with the first stage of work being the construction of a new aged care building and a portion of the seniors' independent living accommodation.
