New student housing & upgraded parking
We want your feedback on new development plans at Kensington campus!
Published on the 21 October 2025
UNSW is planning two major upgrades for the Kensington campus and we want your thoughts!
We’re proposing:
- New student accommodation on Barker Street
- An upgraded parking station to improve safety and access.
These projects aim to make campus life better for students, visitors, staff and the surrounding community.
We're looking to get student feedback before submitting the proposals in January 2026. Join an upcoming pop-up engagement session and help shape the future of UNSW.
