I asked about the residential component of the Quay Quarter Redevelopment at the local Australian forum, and apparently, two small highrise buildings and one lowrise building in the block to the west of the AMP office complex will contain the 150 residential units. I mistakenly believed that either a portion of the Quay Quarter Tower was going to be residential or the shorter AMP Building was going to be converted to residential. Here are a couple of renders and a map.

This is such an exciting construction process! Actually the thread title says "prep", but I would call this under construction, many people in the forum is missing out what is going on here because of that.
The forum is not missing out. Some of us have been posting exhaustive, weekly updates on Quay Quarter from April 2018. It's all in the Sydney section of the forum. :)

3 August - looks like there was some sort of incident, as Phillip Street from Bridge and Albert Streets was sectioned off and closed. A number of police cars and ambulances were on site. (I couldn't find anything via Google News)
