While planning progresses for the Blackwattle Bay Precinct, the Bank Street Pop-up Park has been built on the public land of the future Bank Street Park, to give the local community early access to the precinct.
The temporary park provides locals and visitors with a place to play, exercise and relax. It is the first part of public open space made accessible to the public as part of the Blackwattle Bay revitalisation project.

The Pop-up Park is located within the portion of public land where the future Bank Street Park will be located, at 5-19 Bank Street, Pyrmont. It measures approximately 19m wide along Bank St, and 43.5m along the western boundary adjacent to the existing Blackwattle Bay Marina building.
The temporary park opened in October 2023 and will remain available for the wider community to enjoy while the Bank Street Park project progresses.
We recognise the next steps to progress the Bank Street Park through to construction will take time, with further community consultation to take place later this year, and Design Excellence and State planning processes to be completed before the procurement of a construction contractor.
The Pop-up Park provides extra public open space to be used by the community while this occurs.
The park is open for community use.
