About us

Who we are

The Sydney Development Journal is the definitive source of news and information through the lens of urban renewal projects that continue to create and revive urban centres across Sydney.

We provide facts, data and information. Not assertions or opinions.

As newspeople, we are well-connected, ultra-curious, informed, humble and open-minded. Our work is plain, direct, concise, accessible, free of political or commercial interests, but not simplistic.  

Our Mission

SDJ is united by a mission to inform, engage and empower current and future property professionals to make the most strategic investment decisions possible.

Assume Nothing.

With our well-connected and skilled storytellers, we pursue exclusive urban renewal stories from land rezonings, major projects and planning policy changes. Our focus is to break all important scoops in our core areas, produce deep insight and analysis, and actionable intelligence.
