  • 3.6 Reclamation and Land Consolidation 1825 to 1870S
    277 3.6 Reclamation and Land Consolidation 1825 to 1870s 3.6.1 Introduction Between the 19th and mid-20th century the foreshore of Sydney Harbour was transformed from its natural state by successive phases of waterfront development. Shipping was the primary mode of transport for people and goods for much of the 19th century. Despite the development of better roadways and rail networks, local, intercolonial and international trade was reliant on the connection to the harbours and waterways. Suitable and adequate port facilities were crucial for the city’s economic development and growth. As a main area for early industry and trade activity, the Darling Harbour foreshore was radically altered by numerous land reclamations, initially for maritime infrastructural and later railway development projects. Reclamation can be broadly defined as the process of turning submerged or unusable land into land suitable for a variety of purposes. Reclamation has a long history around the world. In a global context, reclamation prior to industrialisation was primarily undertaken to create and secure land for agriculture. In urban environments, reclamation was undertaken to consolidate city waterfronts, improve defences and turn obsolete landfill sites into habitable land. From the 18th century onwards, the transition to mechanised manufacture and production processes led to extraordinary urban expansion, population growth, and industrial development. During the 19th century reclamation became more associated with the industrialisation and commercial development of urban waterfronts. In Sydney, as with other towns and cities in the industrialised world, it became an integral component of wharf construction. Reclamation also became a necessary process within broader waterway management systems, as wharf construction, reclamation and pollution from the expanding urban centre changed and adversely affected the natural depositional patterns and environment of the harbour and rivers feeding it.
