Unfortunately the Department of Planning has recently partially approved a 6.5 storey sham hospital for this site. The application failed to address many issues adequately and the approval will have serious impacts on both the property and the surrounding area.
We would encourage you to look at the Application to see just how this enormous hospital will impact on the area. Current Application on Rippon Grange

Elevation Schematics of the first Proposed
Retirement Village In this context, the Group commissioned Martin Pickrell Design Pty Ltd, Chartered Architects of Lane Cove, NSW, to independently prepare a set of site elevation schematics using the information provided in the Development Application but excluding all tree cover. These are now displayed below: "South Elevation Schematic (Billyard Street)" and "North Elevation Schematic (Water Street) The Group considers these elevation schematics are representative of
the likely height, bulk, scale, and density of the proposed retirement
village in
relation to the existing heritage item (Rippon Grange) on Water St, and
the existing houses on Billyard Ave.
