Parramatta West Trans. Substation

15 Macquarie Street, Parramatta West NSW

Major five-storey electrical substation carefully designed to have minimal impact on the amenity of neighbouring properties and the public domain.

The control building and associated service yard are concealed behind a full height glazed facade screen. Ventilation louvres ensure that crossflow of air is maintained to the building and equipment, whilst providing visual screening.

The use of a glazed shopfront facade and pedestrian awning along the Macquarie Street facade gives the appearance of an active street frontage in accordance with Parramatta City Council objectives for the locality.
