The architects for the Aspire tower are Bates Smart. They won a Design competition which consisted of Fender Katsalidis, DBI Design and PTW Architects which was selected from a group of Parramatta City jury.

This development application has been submitted to council for 72 floors however there is a second DA (development application) which has been submitted along with it whih consists of the exact same tower and architecture but is 20 floors higher at 92 floors and is ~300m in height. It is unlikely that this application will be approved as it exceeds the CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) maximum height in the Sydney metro area of 243mRL.

It is expected the Aspire Tower will be completed in the year 2020. This is the same year the entire Parramatta Square development will be completed, it is expected that Parramatta Square 8 is the last development to be completed in the complex.
