After the earlier plans for the MFP fell out of favour, the site at The Levels was taken on by the property developer Delfin (now Lend Lease Communities). The first land being released in 1998. Today, it includes Technology Park, the Mawson Lakes campus of the University of South Australia, Endeavour College, as well as growing residential and commercial zones. It also contains the public transport hub Mawson Interchange, which is expected to become one of the five busiest stations in Adelaide.
