Locomotive Workshop
As South Eveleigh is reimagined for the future, our carefully considered plans for the adaptive re-use of the Locomotive Workshop will deliver a unique cultural and innovation hub for Sydney that will preserve and celebrate its rich history whilst making it accessible for everyone to enjoy.
Architecturally striking inside and out, the space features a suspended steel mezzanine floor which offers horizontal and vertical lines of sight. These complement the building's generous voids, further emphasising the character of this heritage structure. The revitalisation plans enable a collection of unique workplaces. Through modern design and technology in conjunction with the historical backdrop of South Eveleigh, the Locomotive Workshop will deliver a fully modernised, light filled workplace designed to inspire collaboration and creativity.

The Belltower
Constructed in 1887, the heritage-listed building will soon add another chapter to its history once its refurbishment is underway.
Affectionately known as The Belltower in reference to its historic use as the timekeeper’s office for the Eveleigh rail yards’ Locomotive Workshop. The building’s bell tower once sounded to indicate when workers’ shifts started and ended. The two-storey property, owned and managed by Centuria, has development approval to be refurbished into more modern office accommodation to meet the needs of today’s tenants. The works will maintain the heritage and authenticity of the building.
