Canberra Brickworks

Canberra Brickworks Precinct

It has been more than 40 years since the kilns were fired one final time in this century-old site. Home to the iconic ‘Canberra Reds’ bricks used throughout the city’s world-renowned architecture, this site is set to be revitalised while refurbishing and celebrating key historical sites.

The Canberra Brickworks Delivery Strategy, managed by Suburban Land Agency, has saved one of Canberra’s most historic sites from further degradation. The prized site is set to be a thriving and environmentally connected place to call home in the heart of Canberra, while bringing new life to historic elements throughout the site.

A two-stage public tender process was undertaken during 2016/2017, with Doma Group announced as the successful developers on 11 April 2017. 

“The redevelopment of the Canberra Brickworks Precinct is an iconic opportunity to engage in placemaking and storytelling to bring this much-loved precinct to life again,” John Dietz, CEO of Suburban Land Agency. 

SLA received the Place Process Commendation for the Canberra Brickworks Delivery Strategy at the 2019 Place Leaders Awards.

Management of the precinct has been transferred to Doma Group. For more information and to register your interest, visit www.brickworksyarralumla.com.au.

A community-led development

The ACT Government has worked closely with the community over many years to refine plans for redevelopment of the Canberra Brickworks.  This informed the decision announced in late August 2015 to reduce the redevelopment area and focus on transforming the Brickworks and surrounding sites into a vibrant showcase of sustainable urbanism, benefiting Canberrans for generations to come.

SLA began working with a project-specific community panel in late 2015 to establish the Precinct Objectives and place vision for the 16-ha historic site. They panel has worked closely with DOMA to prioritise a considered balance between development and adaptive re-use of key historic materials and sites. 

Protecting a historic site

Conserving historic materials, sites and the environment has underpinned the multi-year planning of Canberra Brickworks Precinct. Discover the Conservation Management Plan below for more information.
