The New South Wales government has overruled North Sydney Council, allowing a Crows Nest mixed-use tower to rise 18 storeys in an area currently gazetted for heights of up to 10 metres. At 18 storeys, the concept design will be about 60m higher, or seven times, than what is currently allowed. A planning proposal for the development on the single lot of sq m was first lodged with the council in December , and called for four levels of basement parking, beneath a three-level retail and commercial podium with 42 two and three-bedroom apartments in 14 upper residential floors.

While Council supports and encourages strategically located growth to deliver sufficient and diverse housing for its growing community, the proposed changes do not strategically locate capacity for growth and will potentially result in overdevelopment. Council is also concerned that the proposal will reduce the quality of development outcomes; the proposal includes various non-refusal standards that will override stricter Council controls. On 15 February Council held an online information session to help explain the potential impacts of the reforms in Willoughby.
