The place is a designed cultural landscape; an integrated lake waters and landscape system with designed vistas within the central area of the National Capital of Australia. The lake's water is impounded by Scrivener Dam and its water source is primarily the Molonglo River and Jerrabomberra Creek. The lake waters interface with the suburbs of Fyshwick, Kingston, Barton, Parkes, Acton and Yarralumla. There is no formal, nor all-encompassing, heritage protection for Lake Burley Griffin and Lakeshore Landscape because of the complex heritage legislation, dual planning systems and fragmented management regime for central Canberra, demonstrated by the multiple different heritage listings noted under Associated heritage records, Section 9. The lack of all-encompassing heritage protection has led to the proposed encroachment of major apartment proposal onto lakeshore landscape involving the infilling of 2ha of lake waters.
