- Important buildings may be designed as landmark buildings which exhibit high quality design and should be sited at visually prominent locations such as corners and entries.
- Buildings are to be visible from and have a presence to street frontages. Where buildings are not proposed to be built to the street frontage, setbacks are to be minimised. Buildings are also to be designed and located to take advantage of proximity to open space areas, including the adjoining riparian corridor.

- Retail/commercial/residential buildings built to the alignment of internal streets and pedestrian areas must incorporate awnings/verandahs over the footpath areas, irrespective of whether building walls contain windows, doors or other openings.
- Any building two storeys in height or greater must include a verandah or balcony terrace at level 1 above ground level to any internal street or pedestrian area. They must be accessible for use as open space/balcony from the upper level.
- All mixed use buildings should be able to function as part residential use with potential for a mix of retail, business, or residential at first level directly accessible and visible from the ground level.
- The design of buildings should provide flexibility to enable the use of various parts of the building to change over time as necessitated by demand.
- The centre must be provided with parking that provides convenient access and is located in a manner that does not dominate adjoining public domain areas, riparian corridors or streetscapes.
- Building walls, windows, entries, car parks, loading areas and service docks must be designed to enable maximum casual surveillance to be achieved to promote safety and security in the public domain.
