Transforming 23 Kiora Road Miranda
A collaboration between
Artist’s impression
The Salvation Army is collaborating with experienced property developer Formus to redevelop their site at 23 Kiora Road and 2-6 Willock Avenue, Miranda.
The Salvos have been serving the Miranda community from this site for more than 55 years. While the site has a proud history of service, the facilities are now showing their age and are struggling to keep pace with the growing needs of the community.
The proposed plan is to renew the site through the delivery of a high-quality, mixed-use residential and community development that will include:
· demolishing the existing buildings; and
· constructing a new 17-storey building comprising:
o approximately 1,500m² of fit-for-purpose community space on the ground floor for The Salvation Army to deliver services for the local community; and
o approximately 116 apartments, including a component for affordable housing.
The final area and number of apartments may change slightly as they are subject to planning approval.
Project status
The Miranda Renewal project has been selected by the NSW Housing Delivery Authority as being a well-planned, high-quality project that will add to housing supply and improve affordability.
As part of that process, the project has been designated a State Significant Development by the NSW Government, which requires the application to address any impacts on matters such as traffic, parking, local services, environment, heritage and the community.
The State Significant Development Application will be lodged with the NSW Government later this year.
Ahead of lodgement, the project team is engaging with the local community and key stakeholders about the plans. This includes information sessions on 1 October 2025 (register here) and through a survey, which is open until 15 October 2025.
