  • The River Torrens—Friend and Foe Part 2
    The River Torrens—friend and foe Part 2: The river as an obstacle to be crossed RICHARD VENUS Richard Venus BTech, BA, GradCertArchaeol, MIE Aust is a retired electrical engineer who now pursues his interest in forensic heritology, researching and writing about South Australia’s engineering heritage. He is Chairman of Engineering Heritage South Australia and Vice President of the History Council of South Australia. His email is [email protected] Beginnings In Part 1 we looked the River Torrens as a friend—a source of water vital to the establishment of the new settlement. However, in common with so many other European settlements, the developing community very quickly polluted its own water supply and another source had to be found. This was still the River Torrens but the water was collected in the Torrens Gorge, about 13 kilometres north-east of the City, and piped down Payneham Road to the Valve House in the East Parklands. Water from this source was first made available in December 1860 as reported in the South Australian Advertiser on 26 December. The significant challenge presented by the Torrens was getting across it. In summer, when the river was little more than a series of pools, you could just walk across. However, there must have been a significant body of water somewhere – probably in the vicinity of today’s weir – because in July 1838 tenders were called ‘For the rent for six months of the small punt on the Torrens for foot passengers, for each of whom a toll of one penny will be authorised to be charged from day-light to dark, and two pence after dark’ (Register 28 July).

  • Adelaide, South Australia... Now Is the Time! Now Is the Time!
    ADELAIDE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA... NOW IS THE TIME! NOW IS THE TIME! Adelaide, South Australia is positioning itself on a global scale for major conventions. The destination is currently undergoing an unprecedented level of infrastructure development and investment, which will further enhance the city’s already renowned ‘ease of use’ functionality and services to the Business Events sector.

Adelaide Convention Bureau CEO Damien Kitto underlines the importance of this commitment; “As we all know, to be successful in the global convention market, a destination must have the right mix, standard and location of core convention infrastructure. By enhancing and growing the Riverbank precinct Adelaide is not only able to service major conventions of 3000+ delegates, but is also creating unique synergies with institutions that will drive and support convention content. Our city has great ambition and intention in this area.” MERCURE

  • Nomenclature of the Streets of Adelaide and North Adelaide
    Nomenclature of the Streets of Adelaide and North Adelaide If outlandish names are to be taken to designate certain spots, then, by all means, let them be at least appropriate. To name rivers, counties or streets after Australian Governors may be pardonable, but the evil is the extent to which it is carried, and the same may be said of all other proper names affixed to places, for surely the inventive genius of the country must be dormant. (Register, 27 September 1861, page 3d) Illustrations of early Adelaide Introduction The following explanation of street nomenclature in Adelaide is taken from The City of Adelaide Year Book, 1939- 1940. When the streets and squares delineated on the first plan of Adelaide were to be named, the duty was entrusted to a competent and influential Committee which introduced a valuable historical element in the performance of its task. Thereafter any person who subdivided a piece of land and established a new street had the privilege of naming the thoroughfare, with the result that, in the absence of official control, the derivation of many of the less important street names is lost in obscurity. The first Governor (Captain John Hindmarsh, RN) and the Resident Commissioner (Mr J.H. Fisher) each claimed as his special prerogative the duty of naming the original streets and squares, and, according to the letters of John Brown (Emigration Agent), the appointment of the Committee represented a compromise between the opposing factions. That body was comprised of Governor Hindmarsh, Sir John Jeffcott (Judge), Mr Robert Gouger (Colonial Secretary), Mr (afterwards Sir) James Hurtle Fisher (Resident Commissioner), Mr John Barton Hack, Mr (afterwards Sir) John Morphett, Mr Edward Stephens (banker), Mr T.

  • The Creation of the Torrens : a History of Adelaide's River to 1881
    The Creation of the Torrens: A History of Adelaide's River to 1881 by Sharyn Clarke This is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in History School of Social Sciences University of Adelaide CONTENTS List of Paintings and Maps Introduction 1 Chapter One: Conceiving the Torrens t4 Chapter Two: Black and White 4t Chapter Three: The Destruction of the Torrens 76 Chapter Four: Meeting the Demand for Progress 105 Chapter Five: The Torrens Lake 130 Conclusion 157 Bilbiography ABSTRACT The River Torrens in Adelaide is a fragile watercourse with variable seasonal flows which was transformed in the nineteenth century into an artificial lake on a European scale. This thesis presents the reasons behind the changes which took place. The creation of the Torrens covers both physical changes and altering conceptions of the river from a society which, on the whole, desired a European river and acted as though the Torrens was one. The period of study ranges from the Kaurna people's life, which adapted around the river they called Karrawirraparri, to the damming of the river in 1881, Being the major river forthe city, the relatively higher population density meant huge environmental pressure, an inability to assess its limits lead to it being heavily polluted and degraded only a decade after white settlement. Distinct stages in the use of the river can be observed and a variety of both positive and negative responses towards it were recorded. By studying the interactions with, and attitudes towards, the River Torrens, and the changes it has undergone, we learn much about the societies that inhabited the river and their values towards a specific and crucial part of the natural environment.

  • FINAL Adelaide Park Lands Heritage Assessment 190122
    Heritage Assessment – Adelaide Park Lands and City Squares Issue Date: 17-May-2018 HERITAGE ASSESSMENT REPORT NAME: Adelaide Park Lands, Squares and PLACE: 13717 City Layout ADDRESS: Park Lands, Adelaide, South Australia APPROACH DASH Architects was engaged by the State Heritage Unit of the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources (DEWNR) to undertake a Heritage Assessment of the ‘Adelaide Park Lands and City Squares’ for the consideration of the South Australian Heritage Council. Two nominations were received for the Adelaide Park Lands and City Squares in 2009: • ‘Adelaide Park Lands and City Squares’; and • ‘Adelaide Park Lands, City Squares and Gardens’. This Heritage Assessment (report) has considered to the two State heritage nominations, as well as the 2008 National Heritage Listing for the ‘Adelaide Park Lands and City Layout’. There are many individual places that have already been identified as being of State Heritage significance in their own right within the study area of this report. The scope of this assessment is not to review these, encompass them in a single listing or identify potential additional places. Rather, the scope of this assessment is to consider the nominations ‘as a whole of place’, rather than a collection of elements. DRAFT The Authors of this report have determined that it is not possible to consider the potential heritage significance of the Adelaide Park Lands and Squares without considering their historical and physical context within both Edward Wakefield’s theories for the colonial settlement of the State of South Australia, and Colonel William Light’s subsequent plan for its capital. For this reason, this Heritage Assessment has been extended beyond the nominations to consider the potential heritage significance of the City Layout, as represented in Light’s 1837 plan.

  • COMMENTARY Hello Everyone
    COMMENTARY Hello everyone. Welcome to The Popeye. We will be departing here from Elder Park, travelling down to the Torrens Weir where we will turn around and travel back up towards to Adelaide Zoo and then back to Elder Park. The trip should take approximately 45 minutes. We are now travelling along the Torrens river or Karrawirra Parri. The Popeye Launches acknowledges that the land and the river on which its site is located is the Traditional lands for the Kaurna people and that we respect their spiritual relationship with their country. We also acknowledge the Kaurna people as the custodians of the greater Adelaide region and that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today. At its 1836 discovery an inland bend was chosen as the site of the Adelaide city centre and North Adelaide. The river is named after Colonel Robert Torrens, chairman of the colonial commissioners and a significant figure in the city's founding. We are now passing the Adelaide Festival Centre which is undergoing a $90 million upgrade and celebrated it’s 40th anniversary in 2014. Built in 1973 under the Dunstan government, 3 months before the Sydney Opera House, it is Australia’s first capital city arts venue and hosts more than one million people annually. It is home to world class arts companies and festivals such as the Adelaide Festival, the Adelaide Fringe and the famous Adelaide Cabaret festival. To our left we are now passing the Adelaide Convention Centre, the 1st purpose built in Australia and opened in June 1987.
