Waterfront Brisbane

Waterfront Brisbane is the $2.5 billion transformation of the former Eagle Street Pier and Waterfront Place precinct. The approved masterplan includes two premium office towers with approximately 130,000 m² of office space, delivered in stages, together with a riverfront retail and dining precinct and expanded public space. The project will strengthen the connection between the CBD and the Brisbane River, creating a destination designed for workers, visitors and the wider community.

Public access and movement along the river are central to the project. The new Riverwalk replaces a constrained section of the former route with a promenade at least six metres wide and up to 14 metres wide, improving conditions for people walking, running and cycling.

A 250-metre section reopened in February 2026 following a $42 million transformation delivered through the partnership between Dexus and Brisbane City Council. The wider precinct will provide approximately one hectare of public realm, alongside new moorings and a future CityCat terminal.

Building the delivery pathway

RCP was engaged at project inception to provide strategic project management and specialist programming services through planning, design development and contractor procurement. Our work helped establish the delivery framework, coordinate design and approval milestones, and support the procurement of a contractor capable of delivering the project’s complex engineering, public realm and sustainability requirements.

RCP has supported Waterfront Brisbane from its earliest planning and procurement stages and is now acting as Independent Certifier for the project.
