Any buildings located within City Hill Precinct must be subsidiary to the permitted use as a park and must be designed, sited and of a scale that complements the landscape character.

4.6.5 Detailed conditions of planning, design and development

General
New or altered buildings must ensure that:
       * Sunlight access to open space within the City Hill Precinct and major pedestrian areas is maintained.
       * The vista to City Hill Park is framed and enhanced by new development.
       * Predominantly active frontages are provided at ground floor level for building elements fronting London Circuit and the Main Avenues that radiate from City Hill.
Subdivision patterns should be designed to minimise amalgamation of land and achieve a mix of development scales including fine urban grain.
New buildings are encouraged to be delivered through design competitions in order to encourage innovation and design excellence.
The symbolic importance of the City Hill Precinct should be reinforced in the design treatment of the streetscape and public places.
Public art and art spaces in new development should be encouraged.
Landscape and streetscape treatments are to be of a high quality emphasising the geometry and formality of the Main Avenues.
New development should exemplify sustainability principles and demonstrate excellence in urban design, landscape and architecture.

City Hill Park as a central open space
City Hill Park should be retained and enhanced as an enclosed central park serving a functional role within an urban built form.
The topography of City Hill Park may need to be modified to create an urban park, accommodate pedestrian desire lines and integrate with Vernon Circle.
City Hill Park is the primary public space for the Precinct. Any buildings located on City Hill Park must be ancillary to this purpose and be designed, sited and of a scale that complements the landscape character.
New public spaces created within the Precinct must complement and not diminish the pre‑eminence of City Hill Park.

Building height
Building heights of up to 25 metres (generally six to eight storeys) above adjacent kerb levels of London Circuit, Vernon Circle and Northbourne, Edinburgh, Constitution and Commonwealth Avenues are permissible in all areas of City Hill Precinct.
Landmark buildings up to RL617 (generally 14 to 18 storeys) will be restricted to the locations identified in Figure 42, generally being the
