  • Corridor Estates
    Corridor Estates In the 1970s, the Commission also developed a number of smaller estates along the Liverpool – Campbelltown corridor at suburbs including Macquarie Fields, Airds, Minto and Claymore. The development of these so called ‘corridor estates’ coincided with a general move away from developing the large-scale, low density estates that typified the 1950s and 60s; focus was placed instead on the development of medium density suburbs utilising the townhouses typology first used at Mount Druitt. Figure 97 – Proposals for the Macquarie Fields ‘corridor estate’, dated 1970-71 Source: The Housing Commission of New South Wales Annual Report, 1970-71, p. 24. These estates, the first being Macquarie Fields, were characterised by a smaller overall area of development, a high percentage of townhouses, and the use of the ‘Radburn’ style layout. During this time, townhouses in the ‘Radburn’ layout were also incorporated into some of the older neighbourhood estates, including Windale. URBIS SSP_WATERLOOMETROQUARTER_HERITAGEIMPACTSTATEMENT_FINAL APPENDICES (UPDATED) Micro-Estates The 1980s saw further evolution of the ‘public housing estate’ as conceived and developed from the 1940s onwards, with the Commission deciding in 1975, for the first time, to redevelop parts of its own housing stock. The principal example of this was the introduction of a micro-estate in to the established public housing at Villawood/East Fairfield; a number of earlier fibro cottages were demolished to make way for a ‘micro-estate’ planned in the ‘Radburn’ style. The cottages set on a conventional street grid were replaced with townhouses and maisonettes that faced away from the streets, had common driveways, and small private streets.

Anon: Aboriginal girl camping in one of the Victoria Street houses (above Rowena Place) who died in a fire set by developer Frank Theeman’s heavies in late 1974. Art & the Green Bans (1971-1984) Joseph Szabo, Stan Rapotec, Peter Upward, Ian Milliss and others lived on or near Victoria Street. In 1973, Szabo organized them into an exhibition fundraiser at The Stables (demolished.) The contemporaneous battle material is urgent, cheap and ephemeral, the most durable being Margaret Grafton’s two-colour poster ‘BLF Green Ban Tree’ (1973, attrib.) Brenda Humble, a member of ROW, made an artist’s book, Save the 'Loo Now (1977.) Later, big bright Earthworks Posters from the Tin Sheds appear, notably by Chips Mackinolty (Mick Fowler’s Jazz send-off, 1979 with crochet by Francis Budden); for Pat Fiske’s film of the BLF, ‘Rocking the Foundations’, 1985) and Jan Mackay (‘Remember Juanita’, 1975.) Margel Hinder’s sculpture, ‘Aphrodite’, a bronze memorial fountain in Denis Winston Place (1981) celebrates their achievement. Apologies to those omitted. Please contact us! Art & Woolloomooloo Unofficial Murals Murals are a feature in the Loo. Matron Olive O’Neill, age 86 probably put up the first banner: Hands off! THIS COULD BE YOUR HOUSE!
