Is There a Future for the Sydney Harbour Highline?
Is there a future for the Sydney Harbour HighLine? A comparative study of opportunities and limitations in re-vitalisation of elevated railway corridors. ALICJA BATOROWICZ August 2019 Diploma in Local Government Management University of Technology Sydney TABLE OF CONTENTS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 3 Chapter 1. HIGH-LINES AS AN OPEN SPACE STRATEGY 5 Chapter 2. SYDNEY HARBOUR HIGHLINE: THE NEXT GREEN OPEN SPACE OF SYDNEY 9 Chapter 3. COMPARATIVE METHODOLOGY 15 Chapter 4. PARKS OF THE HIGH LINE 17 Promenade Plantée and Viaduc des Arts 18 New York City High Line 23 Analysis 28 Chapter 5. ANALYSIS 30 Conclusion 35 REFERNCES 36 pg. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The objective of this dissertation is a research of existing examples of former urban railway corridors defined as high lines, successfully reclaimed and transformed to become a recreational open space. Through detailed analysis of two prime examples including Parisian Promenade Plantée and New York City High Line, the aim is to investigate and define the best model for the successful delivery of recently proposed Sydney Harbour HighLine. The aim is to establish a theory that adopted urban high lines are drivers behind economic growth, provide countless benefits to the society and work in harmony with the environment and cultural heritage. This dissertation seeks answers to the following questions: Is there a future for the Sydney Harbour HighLine? Will the revitalisation of Lavender Bay railway line become an elevated challenge or an opportunity? This dissertation has been presented in five chapters. The first chapter begins with an exploration of the unsustainable rate of rapid urbanization and its impact on the environment we live in.

Minutes of the Previous Meeting Following introductions of the committee members, the minutes of the meeting held on Wednesday 4 November 2020 were accepted as a proper record of the meeting. MC moved and KH seconded the adoption of the minutes. MC noted that COVID meeting practice had been adopted and additionally all attendees had had their temperatures checked. 2. Development applications The Chair reported the following Development Application information from NSC: • DA 13/21 – Noakes. 6 John St, McMahons Point. Use of existing building as a caretaker's unit and DA 11/21, Noakes 6 John St, McMahons Point. Use of the relocatable shed contained within boat repair facility. These were discussed together. MC gave an overview of the DAs, disclosing she lives next door to the site. The meeting noted that the DA was missing vital information and is quite confusing. This makes it difficult for the community to make an assessment of the proposals. The DAs also appear to be misleading as they assume the buildings are legal, however members of the precinct believe they are unlawful, and these DAs might be a way of getting retrospective approvals for the buildings.
