The Sydney Harbour Federation Trust is revitalising Cockatoo Island, and it will soon become home to a vibrant mix of enterprises, organisations and fascinating public and interpretive spaces. Combining stunning views, proximity to the CBD and a wealth of remnants from its penal and industrial past, this wonderful place combines tranquillity and the lustre of a rare opportunity. The Trust now invites businesses, service providers, groups and individuals to consider the advantages of leasing space in this landmark location. Facilities range from expansive workshops to quirky studios; from functional office space to historic former residences; from dramatic exhibition space to valuable marine facilities; from gritty hardstand to waterfront grassland. For a unique place to conduct a business or enterprise, Cockatoo Island is hard to beat.
The Details
The Vision for Cockatoo Island
Maritime and related industry will be re-established, while new uses such as cultural events, studios, workshops for creative industries and visitor accommodation will be introduced. Balancing this activity, there will be a diversity of public open spaces, vantage points and quiet places for reflection. Existing buildings and structures will be adaptively reused, and heritage sites will be conserved and interpreted as an important element of the island’s attractions. While the revitalisation of the island will draw from the past phases of its history, a distinctly new phase will be created, characterised by the island’s openness to, and occupation by, the public, to which it has been closed for the last 165 years.

Buildings and Facilities For LeaseIn keeping with tradition, existing buildings and structures on Cockatoo Island will be adaptively re-used.
