A walking tour from McMahons And yet Lawson, too, spent much of his time in Point to Balls Head Sydney – and North Sydney. He lived in numerous dwellings between 1885, when he Distance: Approx. 3 Km stayed with Mrs Emma Brooks in East Crescent Approximate time: 2.5 hours Street, and 1920. You will pass by some of his Grading: High (there are residences on this walk. Other dwellings and several sets of places of significance include: Strathmere, Lord steep inclines and Street in 1899; rooms above the Coffee Palace stairs to negotiate) in Miller Street run by Mrs Isabel Byers who would care for Lawson for many years after this; Chaplin Cottage, Charles Street where Lawson’s second child Bertha was born in 1900; and Dind’s Hotel at the bottom of Alfred Street Milsons Point – the subject of the very funny poem ‘Dinds Hotel’ – … We hurried out of Campbell Street, and round to Dind’s hotel Where after two long beers apiece, we found the world “orright”… Curiously while Australia’s rural landscape was being well-interpreted and mythologised in poetry and prose, the communities around Sydney’s by-then famous Harbour were rarely explored in writing.

    MISREPORTING BY CENTENNIAL COAL… Nature Conservation Council (NCC) investigative team found a major coal company in NSW, Centennial Coal, massively underestimated carbon emissions from its mines for at least 10 years. Last month, Centennial Coal applied to open a new mine near Lithgow called Angus Place. The company claims its mine will generate 0.36 million tonnes of carbon pollution a year, but the true number is 10 million tonnes a year. The company under-reported its emissions by 97%! Digging deeper, NCC discovered this was not the first time Centennial Coal has made such a colossal “mistake”. Documents show the company has massively under-estimated carbon emissions in relation to several of its coal mines dating back to 2010. NCC passed this information on to the Sun Herald, and the findings were published on page 3 of their 10 May 2020 edition – see https://www.smh.com.au/environment/climate-change/we- stuffed-up-coal-miner-admits-to-submitting-wrong-emissions-data-20200508-p54r6i.html NCC also asked the NSW Planning Department to investigate and prosecute Centennial Coal if it has broken any laws. Coal mining and coal-fired power generation contribute to devastating bushfires, floods and heat waves like those we saw last summer. We must do everything we can to switch from dirty fossil fuels to clean wind, solar and storage to prevent the climate heating to dangerous levels. … AND THE TRUE IMPACT OF USE OF WATER BY COAL MINING INDUSTRY The Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) has released a new report that brings us closer to understanding the true impact the coal industry has on our water across this dry continent of ours.

  • 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.

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.
