to the primacy of the geometry of Constitution Avenue and the Russell apex of the National Triangle with building form emphasising the alignments of Constitution Avenue, Kings Avenue and Parkes Way.
   2.       Reinforce the city's three‑dimensional structure based on its topography and the landscape containment of the Inner Hills.
   3.        Develop Constitution Avenue (generally east of Anzac Parade) as a prestigious setting for national capital uses, related employment and amenities.
   4.       Reduce the barrier created by Parkes Way and its high speed intersections along its length by changing the character of Parkes Way to become a boulevard addressed with prestigious buildings, at grade pedestrian crossings and appropriately scaled road reserves and intersections.
   5.        Provide a mix of land uses that contributes to the creation of a 24 hour community with dynamic activity patterns including retail, restaurants, residential and hotels close to public transport, employment areas, cultural attractions and the parklands of Lake Burley Griffin.
   6.         Integrate public transport priority in the design of Constitution Avenue including provision for future light rail.
   7.        Development should include a high level of access to a diversity of uses and activities, have cohesion and diversity in design character and detail, and be able to respond to changes over time.
   8.       Provide a transition in building scale and use to protect the amenity of adjoining residential areas.
   9.          Ensure conveniently located parking in a manner that does not dominate the public domain. All basement and service vehicle entries are to be located from secondary street frontages.
  10.          Create an open and legible network of paths and streets that extends and connects City Hill and the adjoining suburbs of Reid and Campbell to Constitution Avenue, Kings and Commonwealth Parks and Lake Burley Griffin.
  11.        Create a public domain that forms a linked sequence of spaces that are accessible, safe, comfortable, and pedestrian‑scaled, that promotes walking and use of public transport and minimises reliance on cars.
  12.          Integrate perimeter security, if required, with streetscape elements that enhance the public domain.
  13.     Architectural character should develop a contemporary palette of styles and materials, reflecting the varied land uses and providing activity and interest, particularly at street level. Particular attention should be paid to building form and roof profiles in areas of high visibility.
  14.       Design proposals should be site responsive, taking maximum advantage of varying characteristics and features of each site, complementing adjoining development – both existing and proposed – and expressing physical and environmental features.
  15.       The street network, building form and facilities should be inherently flexible to accommodate changing uses and demands across the site and within buildings over time.
  16.       Development should command high standards of urban design, sustainability, architecture and social inclusion reflecting the
