  • Urban Parks, Urban Icons? the Case of Bicentennial Park in Sydney

The case of Bicentennial Park in Sydney Catherine Evans Faculty of the Built Environment, UNSW [email protected] This paper explores the question of how urban parks function as urban icons. It examines Bicentennial Park in Homebush Bay, 12 km west of the Sydney Central Business District (CBD) as a case study. Bicentennial Park was planned and designed between 1983 and 1988, a time when Australia, and its cities in particular, grappled with tensions between celebrating achievements of two hundred years of European settlement and redressing the cultural and ecological harm wrought by those achievements. The research focuses on a review of material related to the design and promotion of the park, and early reviews of the park. The discussion explores the influence of specific ideas about the city and ecology on the transformations of use, materiality, and physical form of the land that became Bicentennial Park. Findings reveal that Bicentennial Park at Homebush Bay was conceived as an awkwardly scripted design, which in turn reflects a convergence of urban planning initiatives, intensifying environmental awareness and ideological tensions within the then nascent Australian- based profession of landscape architecture.

  • Site Analysis
    SITE ANALYSIS Site location + local context The Haymarket takes its name from the local neighbourhood. It sits entirely within an urban context and is bounded by the Pier Street flyover to the north, Harbour and Hay Streets, mixed, low-level commercial streets to the east and south respectively, and the light rail corridor to the west. The site is currently occupied by the Sydney Entertainment Centre in the east and a large multi-storey car park to the west. The raised Sydney monorail, which runs along its western, southern and eastern perimeter and includes the Paddy’s Market station, is to be closed and dismantled in June 2013. The local streets provide good connections into the city and university precincts and wider connections to Central Station. Connectivity to the west has historically been poor, after the introduction of a goods line segregated Ultimo and Pyrmont from the city. Pedestrian access is limited to the heavily trafficked Pier Street with stairs and ramps providing access to grade, and a footbridge from the Powerhouse Museum crossing Darling Drive and connecting with Paddy’s Market monorail station on the south- west corner of the site. SHFA is managing the creation of a new pedestrian corridor called the Goods Line (formerly known as the Ultimo Pedestrian Network or UPN). This project seeks to turn a disused goods line into a linear park supporting a range of activities – similar to the High Line in New York. This new corridor will land at the south-western corner of the site. The existing facilities to the north of the site within SICEEP will be redeveloped in a programme of regeneration to be completed by 2016.

    Issue 8 of 2020 (October 2020) ISSN 1836-599X PAINTED RIVER PROJECT By Asa Wahlquist The year six students at Forest Lodge have a tradition of leaving a gift for the students who follow them. The plan this year is for a mural featuring Johnstons Creek, but it is being thwarted by City of Sydney’s demand for $735 to lodge a Development Application. Forest Lodge principal Stephen Reed said the students wanted to do something on regeneration and sustainability. It is an ongoing theme, with a previous year instituting Waste-free Wednesdays. Mr Reed said the students were interested in regeneration in the wake of the summer bushfires, and the renaturalisation of Johnstons Creek caught their attention. Sydney Water is naturalising the Forest Lodge school students at work on the Painted River project (photo: Creek, replacing the concrete Asa Wahlquist) banks with sandstone set at different levels along the sides to create varied habitats, establishing a wetland, expanding the salt marsh and increasing the number and diversity of native plants along the sides. The students’ project is called The Painted River. Work began during Science Week, when the 36 students gathered by the Creek to study a display of water life put together by water ecologist Ian Wright and to paint what they saw under the guidance of artist Leo Robba. Dr Wright set up a table of samples collected from an undisturbed creek in Pittwater. The display included the stonefly, which he said is ‘supersensitive to changes in water quality.’ While he admits we will never know what Johnstons Creek was like before settlement, he thinks ‘some of these things could be brought back through naturalisation.’ Each of the students also completed a painted canvas.
