An urbanist at heart, 2024 AIA Gold Medal Winner Philip Thalis has demonstrated how a higher-density future can also yield a quality public realm and civic opportunity. His design thinking is effective across all scales: from the joy of a light-filled and affordable dwelling interior through to precinct formation and master planning. Under his direction, Hills Thalis has successfully undertaken some of Sydney's most important urban projects, including Sydney2030, the University of NSW Master Plan, Parramatta City Centre DCP and Sydney Olympic Park 2025 Plan, Darling Harbour East and of course, Barangaroo precinct. In this revealing interview, Prof Thalis outlines his ideas for a better designed and much fairer Sydney.

Today we are talking about human rights policy, within a corporate context, with my guest Ro Coroneos.

Which parts of our heritage and childhood form who we are and impact what we do in later life? If you spend your childhood wallpapering your bedroom walls with drawings of Europe's great buildings, are you desisted for a career in built environments?

We're talking with Professor Kate Fullagar about her new book on Bennelong and Phillip. Grab the book here: https://www.simonandschuster.com.au/books/Bennelong-and-Phillip/Kate-Fullagar/9781761108174 This book provides the first joint biography of Bennelong and Governor Arthur Phillip, two pivotal figures in Australian history – the colonised and coloniser – and a bold and innovative new portrait of both. Bennelong and Phillip were leaders of their two sides in the first encounters between Britain and Indigenous Australians, Phillip the colony's first governor, and Bennelong the Yiyura leader. The pair have come to represent the conflict that flared and has never settled. Fullagar's account is also the first full biography of Bennelong of any kind and it challenges many misconceptions, among them that he became alienated from his people and that Phillip was a paragon of Enlightenment benevolence. It tells the story of the men's marriages, including Bennelong's best-known wife, Barangaroo, and Phillip's unusual domestic arrangements, and places the period in the context of the Aboriginal world and the demands of empire. To present this history afresh, Bennelong & Phillip relates events in reverse, moving beyond the limitations of typical Western ways of writing about the past, which have long privileged the coloniser over the colonised. Bennelong's world was hardly linear at all, and in Fullagar's approach his and Phillip's histories now share an equally unfamiliar framing. Kate Fullagar is professor of history at the Institute for Humanities and Social Sciences, in the Australian Catholic University, and co-editor of the journal History Australia. Her book The Warrior, The Voyager and the Artist won the Douglas Stewart Prize for Non-Fiction at the 2021 NSW Premier's Awards.

Analogue Discogue is an esteemed hi-fi, vinyl-only event hosted by house and disco aficionado, Norm De Plume. We were invited to join the line-up for its July event: a sun-kissed Sunday afternoon affair hosted at the exquisite, Japanese-inspired Rekōdo Restaurant & Vinyl Bar at Sydney's Barangaroo. Rekōdo's crystal-clear Klipsch sound system sounded expectedly immaculate right throughout the afternoon's proceedings: the clarity and warmth of the system provided an ambient yet immersive experience for diners and listeners, alike. It was an absolute pleasure. The Fazz @andrewfazzolari and I came prepared, armed and loaded with a couple of boxes of carefully-selected favourites—a concoction of newer burners and some favourites from yesteryear—and did our very best to fly the Attic flag proudly.

This week: Art Basel Hong Kong bounces back. After cancellations, delays and two years of restricted fairs, the fair has returned to something like pre-Covid normality. So, as other Asian art centres like Seoul and Singapore become increasingly influential, what is the atmosphere like in Hong Kong? Gareth Harris, chief contributing editor at The Art Newspaper, joins us to discuss the fair, the M+ museum and more. It is becoming increasingly clear that social media corporations have become self-appointed cultural gatekeepers that decide which works of art can freely circulate, be pushed into the digital margins or even banned. Our live editor, Aimee Dawson, talks to the artist Emma Shapiro and Elizabeth Larison, the Director of the Arts & Culture Advocacy Program at the National Coalition Against Censorship, about the issue and a project to counter this tendency, called Don't Delete Art. And this episode's Work of the Week is Naabami (thou shall/will see): Barangaroo (army of me), a photographic project by Brenda L. Croft, in which she depicts fellow First Nations women and girls. The work is part of The National 4: Australian Art Now, a survey across multiple venues in Sydney.

This week we bring you another evokeAG x Humans of Agriculture collaboration podcast, with Oli Le Lievre. Oli catches up with waste warrior and insect farming pioneer, Olympia Yarger, the CEO and Founder of Goterra, an agritech startup using robotics and black soldier flies to turn food waste into a protein source, used as animal feed and a nutrient-dense fertiliser.Earlier this month, Olympia was announced as the 2023 ACT Australian of the Year for her contributions in dealing with climate change. Goterra's food management system has processed more than 35,000 tonnes of waste and saved more than 66,000 tonnes of carbon emissions. The modular biowaste converters have been a huge success for Sydney's Barangaroo precinct in managing high-volume commercial and retail food waste. The Woolworths Group has also incorporated Goterra's solution into their business model to help achieve zero food waste going to landfill by 2025.Here Olympia shares her story with Oli about how personal tragedy led to her traveling overseas and how those experiences helped shape who she is today and ultimately led to the creation of Goterra.

Fotograf: Elmar Vestner, Berlin Berlin based artist Sabine Hornig is known for her work combining sculpture, photography and installation to produce complex works allowing for new interpretations of conventional histories, memory, perspectives, and the lived environment. Her works explore the tension between surface plane and three-dimensional space, often treating transparent architectural mediums such as glass simultaneously as a surface, subject, and portal. At once rigorously formal and poetic, her works recontextualize familiar places and challenge individual views in the context of societal perspectives. By inverting perspectives and hierarchies, they make visible hidden contexts and communicate the interconnectedness of elements and conditions we usually separate. Her most notable works include La Guardia Vistas, LaGuardia Airport, New York; Shadows, Sydney International Towers, Barangaroo; Double Transparency, Museum Boijmans van Beuningen, Rotterdam; Durchs Fenster, Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich; Room with Large Window, Berlinische Galerie, Berlin; The Second Room, Centro Cultural de Belem, Lisbon; Projects 78, Museum of Modern Art, New York. Hornig is currently working on a commission for a new federal parliament building in Berlin. Her work is also on view at Give and Take. Bilder über Bilder, Hamburger Kunsthalle through August 28.

Noah has some hilarious stories from his time as a chef. Working in a few tough Sydney kitchens grinding away and slogging it out, has helped shaped his world view with a more optimistic mindset. Jumping on the Roots podcast to reflect on his journey, gave him an opportunity to let out all of the entertaining experiences he'd gained along the way. Noah once worked with a chef who was so intense that if Noah was to use his hands to pick garnish from his draws during service, they would get whacked with tongs by the chef beside him while abusing him in Spanish. Fortunately having learned Spanish in university, Noah could understand and make sense of his advice.  Having done his time in restaurants, Noah decided in 2016 to co-open the microgreens business and go for gold. Since then he has gone from a few shelves in a Marrickville unit (which flooded a few times), with Yellow being their first big customer, to a fully decked out work space with a prime location spot in Barangaroo (which coincidently happened to flood also) now serving his recognised produce to the likes of Claire Smyth at Oncore.  It's been a pretty wild ride for Noah Verin and since hospitality opened back up in October 2021, it seems as though he might be back on track with a few prospects in line for the future. You can also now listen to the podcast on the new website over at rootshospitality.com.au where you can explore behind the scenes photos of venues, listen to your favourite podcasts and more. Roots podcast is proudly supported by Sydney Direct Fresh Produce. The fruit and veg supplier led by Luke Kohler, who has provided Sydney with some of the best and local produce since he was 16 years old and still smashing it today. Music by Charlie Fester.If you liked the podcast, go and follow @rootshospitality over on Instagram or sign up to the mailing list on the new website to hear about the latest guest and news for anything hospitality.

You probably know Noma in Copenhagen is officially the world's best restaurant. What you probably didn't know is that its Chief Operating Officer is an Australian called Ben Liebmann, the media guy who brought the acclaimed Noma pop up restaurant to Sydney's Barangaroo six years ago with Tourism Australia. You also probably wouldn't know that Liebmann was handpicked by Elizabeth Murdoch a decade ago to create Shine 360, the commercial arm of her production business, to run rights management, sponsorship, brand integration and consumer products. Shine's Master Chef ended up becoming a $700 million beast from sponsorship deals, consumer products such as pots and pans, book sales events and the rest. At Noma, Liebmann is working with the real master chef in Noma founder René Redzepi, who is eschewing the well-worn path of licensed restaurants or Gordon Ramsay style entertainment shows. Instead, they have built a different kind of media unit, with shows now being picked-up by a global streaming giant. And it may be that Liebmann is heading back to Australia permanently to expand the business. Suffice to say Mi3 listeners are in for a veritable feast of creativity, growth and a hunger for more.

The Other Art Fair provides the opportunity for artists to exhibit all over the world, now established in London, New York, LA, Sydney, Melbourne, Dallas, Toronto and Chicago. Since its launch, the fair has attracted over 250,00 art-loving visitors selling more than 25,000 artworks from emerging artists. We had a ball talking to Ryan, over zoom in London, about showing at the Other Art Fair, putting together a cohesive stand, and the art world in general. Come along to The Other Art Fair, The Cutaway, Barangaroo, 2-5th December and buy some art, Ryan said so...!Thanks Ryan, we appreciate you talking to us. 

Covid kicks off the podcast again this week, unfortunately, but with both Sydney and Melbourne shut down it's the first thing that springs to everyone's  mind. However there are some new talking points – like the surprisingly handy Strata Covid Toolkit produced by the NSW government last weekend, which we highly recommend. Then, just when they've final acquired some Flat Chat Brownie points, the NSW government goes and stuffs it up by issuing Public Health Orders about who can work where, completely ignoring strata and the people who run it. LISTEN HERE The in some non-covid chat (praise be!), we talk about some of the astronomical prices being paid for apartments in the Crown tower at Barangaroo. And we recall spending a night in one of the poshest (and worst laid-out) penthouses in Sydney. Then we discover “zoom rooms”, the new name for that awkward corner of apartments that developers don't know what to do with.  Too small to be a study, too impractical to be anything other than a cupboard, now it's the potential hub of your burgeoning media career. As our picture of US broadcaster Ira Glass (purloined from Medium.com) shows, you don't need a special room – just a wardrobe with a desk and lots of noise-absorbing clothes. Sue also introduces us to once-desirable areas where rents are 30 per cent lower than they were five years ago.  And we get the inside running on the sale of a disgraced League player's Parra pad. That's all in this week's Flat Chat Wrap. TRANSCRIPT IN FULL Jimmy  0:00  I feel like we're in double duty this week, because we were on Amanda Farmer's podcast, where everybody actually got to see us for a change. Sue  0:09   Yes. Amanda looks so glamorous and we both looked like we just got out of bed. Jimmy  0:15  Well, you had! She does look very glamorous. It was interesting and quite challenging, the three of us trying to speak, all at the same time, often. We still managed to get through a fair bit of material. Today, we've got a few things to talk about. We've got the new strata toolkit from the New South Wales Government. I noticed it's branded 'government,' not health and definitely not Fair Trading. We've got some confusing messages coming out in the public health orders and you've got some stories about rents and the sales of fabulous apartments. Sue  0:57  Yes, that's right. Jimmy  0:58  I'm Jimmy Thomson. I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue  1:04  And I'm Sue Williams and I write about property for Domain. Jimmy  1:07  And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. Late on Friday night (which seems to be when they release anything that has to do anything with strata), the New South Wales government released its strata managers and committees COVID-19 handbook. Sue  1:37  Fantastic. Jimmy  1:38  I'm sorry, it's a toolkit. It's not a handbook, it's a toolkit. Sue  1:41  That's great, isn't it? Isn't that the first time they've done very much for strata people? Jimmy  1:47  Well, yeah. It's kind of like they keep forgetting that we exist and keep forgetting that it's a big chunk of the population and issuing all these very specific rules that leave us out, a lot of the time. We've had the whole thing about wearing a mask inside, but your home is being excluded. They didn't define whether that was apartment buildings, or apartments or whateve, so they brought out this toolkit, which I think looks pretty good. Sue  2:17  Great. What kinds of things does it involve? Jimmy  2:20  Well, there are things like the posters for putting up. You download them as PDFs, you print them and you stick them up in your lifts and on your notice boards and on your doors. And, they're quite specific; they're saying you must wear a mask. Sue  2:37   Oh, good. So there's no two ways about it? Jimmy  2:39  Yeah. What they don't have is the thing saying it's a condi...

The Star Entertainment group has proposed a $12 billion merger with James Packer’s Crown Resorts. Star thinks its track record of operating casinos in Sydney, Brisbane and The Gold Coast puts it in a great position to help Crown out of its regulatory woes. In February, Crown was found unfit to operate its new casino at Sydney’s Barangaroo after evidence of money-laundering in its casinos and other probity failures emerged in the long-running Bergin inquiry. Today on Please Explain, Tory Maguire speaks with business columnist Elizabeth Knight about what a Star-Crown merger could mean for James Packer’s beleaguered casino group.

If you have a hankering for the high life and have a lazy $22 million lying around, you could score an apartment in the huge Crown tower above James Packer’s (currently non-functioning) casino. If that’s too rich for your blood, how much would you expect to pay for a two-bed, two-bath pad on a lower floor? All is revealed in our Flat Chat Wrap podcast this week. But before we get to that, there’s the small matter of how data mining is going to lead to a trebling of the number of apartment blocks under construction that will fall under the critical glare of NSW Building Commissioner David Chandler. Listen Here As this story explains, Fair Trading is planning to dig into its accumulated data to find out which certifiers have historically signed off on the most problematic buildings, then reverse engineer that to find out which buildings under construction those certifiers are now connected with. That will trigger a visit from someone from the Building Commissioner’s office who will start tapping tiles and probing plaster to see how well or badly this building has been constructed. Then we get to the issue of the high cost of buying into Sydney’s tallest apartment block, the Crown Tower at Barangaroo. Yes, an apartment changed hands for $22m recently but there are others there that are a lot cheaper … okay, a bit cheaper. The we look at the new 899-unit apartment complex proposed for Campbelltown and discuss the issues confronting owners in separate strata schemes that are also part of a larger scheme sharing some facilities. And finally, Jimmy answers a question asked by Sue last week – will the big insurers ever come back and cover the construction of apartment block over three storeys high. That’s all in this week’s Flat Chat Wrap. Transcript In Full Jimmy 0:00Big news on the defects front, Sue? Sue 0:02Yes, absolutely. The New South Wales Government is acting to start auditing a lot more buildings than they usually do (and they have been doing over the last six months). Jimmy 0:11Okay, because we saw that report last week about how a huge percentage of defective buildings were certified by like, six different certifiers. Sue 0:23That's right; about a third of risky buildings, by the same six repeat-offending certifiers. Jimmy 0:30We're going to be talking about that; we're going to be talking about a big new development and I'm going to be answering a question that Sue asked last week (and I went off-track, and answered a completely different one). I'm Jimmy Thomson, I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue 0:50And I'm Sue Williams and I write about property for Domain. Jimmy 1:09And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. [MUSIC] JimmyJust as we were about to sit down and record this podcast, a press release came in from New South Wales Fair Trading, Sue, and it's big news. Sue 1:20That's right. Kevin Anderson, the Minister for Better Regulation, has launched a data-led audit regime to target the state's high-risk building certifiers and triple the number of buildings to come under scrutiny by the building regulator. Jimmy 1:34What sort of numbers are we talking about? Sue 1:36Well, at the moment, there's a pre-occupational certificate audit regime, and they target around 50 site-based audits every six months. But, with this new regime of audits, they're expecting to be able to audit an additional 100 to 150 buildings every six months, which more than triples the regulator's compliance and enforcement efforts on residential apartments. Jimmy 2:00Wow. Sue 2:01So, that's a big jump. Jimmy 2:02It's huge. So, they're basing this on certain new data or analyzing data they already have? Sue 2:11Well, they've got apparently, new digital tools, where they can analyze the data really effectively, because apparently, they've got so much data coming in; they've got something like 170 million lines of data to look at certifi...

The corporate cleanup is underway at Crown Resorts Back in 2012, Eliza was covering NSW politics for ABC News. At the same time, James Packer approached NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell with a proposal to build a casino, luxury hotel and entertainment complex at Barangaroo. The Labor Opposition supported the project which created loads of jobs and Sydney's second casino became a fait accompli. Almost a decade later, the casino has been build, but Crown Resorts has been deemed unsuitable to operate it because of poor corporate governance and the company's links to organised crime. It's a huge corporate scandal. Also this week, Geraldine falls in love with Sicily. And Eliza starts Season 3 of the French drama "The Bureau". Thanks for listening!

Join us in part two for our Barangaroo delivery podcast where Tim continues his tour with us of the Barangaroo Reserve. To catch up on our tour through Barangaroo gardens in Sydney, please go back to part one of our podcast, https://eattmag.com/podcasts/how-to-get-to-barangaroo-gardens-in-sydney/  Tim tells us how there are over 75,000 plants, trees, and shrubs at Barangaroo gardens. One of his favorite trees is called the Casuarina in which he describes its protective nature and characteristics.

Along with the Partners Landscape Architecture (PWP), in association with Sydney-based Johnson Pilton Walker Architects and Landscape Architects, they delivered the design project as a collaborative effort. Barangaroo from the air Photo: Infrastructure NSW, Barangaroo from the air in this early Aerial 2015 Moving through the gardens, we come across the Burrawang steps which are positioned at one of the entrances. Burrawang is the aboriginal name for a local Cycad plant which was known as a poisonous plant known to the local people who knew how to extract the poison.  The plant was used to make starch which involved soaking it in saltwater directly before eating. This process possibly took up to two days. Le Bokeh Dianella Shot at ƒ/8 Photo: Cullen Pope,  ƒ/8    1/640   90mm   ISO3200 In the gardens of Barangaroo beautiful flowers abound throughout the year signalling various times to harvest: such as when certain species of fish are ripe for the gathering.  Plants and trees also provide both shelter and shade for these activities. This bokeh image grasps the full extent of its beauty. When Cullen asks about the kinds of visitors to the reserve, Tim replies "We've had lots of schools, we've had lots of corporates, and we've had a few VIP days - we've had all types. Mainly locals, but we cater for everyone. We are part of the school curriculum. So we cover the curriculum from K from kindergarten to year 12.   Salmon Flush Hues of Salmon A rainbow of color sequences from yellows and purples to mossy greens transition down to the sea line and become a feature of the unique human-made tessellations. Such an unexpected vision is a photographer's delight against the blue of the sea.

Excavating the cove uncovered a lot of artifacts. Többi Sandstone in time Sandstone glistens and gleams when wet and worn wonderfully by the elements of earth, wind, and water which reveals the remnants of time over 200 million years ago.  Cratered and weather-worn these structures evoke notions of histories and peoples who have walked across this ancient rockscape. Photo: Cullen Pope,  550D ƒ/8 1/4000 90mm ISO3200   Tim adds, "Part of the colonial history also discovered, was when they even dug up the first boat launching slipway in Australian history. So you can actually see 1827 concrete. And that's where the boat launching was happening.  It's called Munns slipway." Nectarous Some sandstone blocks almost look like the Eastern dessert, halva, with its layered sediment lines sweeping through the structures. Brilliant browns, deep reds, and fiery Ochre - hues that have been created over time by the wind. Photo: Cullen Pope,   ƒ/8  1/2500   55mm   ISO3200 "Entering the cutaway, we learn of its 18,000 square meters in area, including 6,500 meters of floor space. 93% of the sandstone we can see at the reserve came from underneath here that appears around the park. And there's two levels of car parking - 300 car park spaces and another level of a storage water tank, and a basement system, which recycles water from as caught from the 90,000-liter rain tanks of each of those towers." Opening Day Photo:  Infrastructure NSW, Barangaroo Reserve Opening Day 2015   Later on during our tour of Barangaroo Reserve Tim also alludes to the shared paths for the bikes and scooters. Barangaroo fast become known as another great place to exercise and is now one of Sydney's favorite outdoor exercise parks for sports enthusiasts. The unmatched views of Sydney from this angle make Barangaroo Reserve a great place to enjoy outdoor space close to the city but away from the crowds to get your body moving.  For students looking for a great place to get some exercise we have outlined a few points to remember  Photo: Infrastructure NSW Studies show regular exercise can increase student's self-esteem and can make you feel happier.    The importance of exercise for students during study breaks:  After a good 12 weeks of long, hard study, the summer break is a great time to improve your mental and physical health. During the semester, it is a real challenge to get an intensive exercise program going with upcoming exams; however, the study break is a great time to get back in shape and get moving with or without the help of your devices. Sandstone at Barangaroo Reserve Photo:  Infrastructure NSW, Sandstone at Barangaroo Reserve   Exercise can also help prevent excess weight gain that may have occurred during the semester or help maintain weight loss. Remember, however, when you engage in most physical activities, you burn calories, and this also helps you to clear your mind and improve your cognitive functions. Physical movement also helps to boost your energy levels, and regular exercise can improve your muscle strength and increase your endurance. Exercise and training deliver oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. Overall activity is an excellent way to get in shape and also get your mind and energy levels ready for the next semester. Studies show regular exercise can increase student's self-esteem and can make you feel happier.  Dukes Pier and Nawi Cove Photo:  Infrastructure NSW, Dukes Pier and Nawi Cove at Barangaroo Reserve   Exercise has been shown to improve your mood and decrease feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress. It produces changes in the parts of the brain that regulate stress and anxiety. It can also increase brain sensitivity to the hormones serotonin and norepinephrine, which relieve feelings of depression.  Additionally, exercise can increase the production of endorphins, which are known to help produce positive feelings and reduce the perception of pain. Furthermore, exercise has been shown to reduce symptoms in people suffering from anxiety. It can also help them to be more aware of their mental state and act as a distraction from their fears. Bridge Lawn at Barangaroo Reserve Photo:  Infrastructure NSW,  looking out from Bridge Lawn at Barangaroo Reserve   Interestingly, it doesn't matter how intense your workout is. It seems that your mood can benefit from exercise no matter the intensity of the physical activity.  This can be evidenced in a study by Elizabeth Anderson and Geetha Shivakumar On the Effects of Exercise and Physical Activity on Anxiety https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3632802/   Where can students get more exercise tips Students have many great resources to get exercise tips. If you want to start gymming, then having a great gym app is the right place to start. Here is a list of some great apps to get started. https://www.tomsguide.com/us/pictures-story/702-best-workout-apps.html Barangaroo Reserve Aeria Photo:  Infrastructure NSW Barangaroo Aerial 2015 looking out across the piers, Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House and North Sydney towards the heads As you can see for the photographs, Barangaroo is a perfect place to go for a run, stroll, or a bike ride.   Join teams or clubs If you don't want to exercise alone or don't have a structured exercise plan, then joining a club or sports team is a great way to meet people and bond with them. Team sports lead to great stories and social interaction—from bowling to rugby, you'll meet and work together with 10 or more people. Team sports also will have you committing to a whole season of exercise and physical activity. Pick a game that's right for you, check out local community centers, and find yourself a team to play for.

Some 6,500 blocks were placed to create the foreshore. More than 42,000 tonnes of rough stone and a further 30,000 tonnes of crushed stone was also used during the construction of the park. Additionally, some 75,000 native trees, plants and shrubs have been used to landscape Barangaroo Reserve. A selection 84 species were chosen, 79 of which are native to Sydney Harbour. Many of the species are not to be found in commercial nurseries, so seeds and cuttings were collected from wild sites around Sydney Harbour and the Hawkesbury River. http://www.bundanoonsandstone.com.au/pdfjs/web/LAM_11Nov2016_Barangaroo_Peter_Walkers_Point.pdf    Sydney Metro Maximus The International Towers Photo: Cullen Pope,   ƒ/8  1/500    55mm   ISO3200 The pop-art effect of the intensely bright colors in this image blast shocks of light that ricochet off the metallic rust-colored reds of the iron curvations: all the while looking out into the Warhol infused halo of the International Towers of an international city.

Tim is our knowledgeable guide with Infrastructure NSW guiding us on our way across the ancient sandstone structures that form the Barangaroo garden Reserve. Colorful stories abound and come to life in the seaside gardens here at Barangaroo reserve located on the north-western edge of the Sydney CBD. TAKE A BREAK TO BARANGAROO SYDNEY: Barangaroo is the land of the Gadigal people who were the traditional owners of the area who used it for fishing and hunting. In the podcast today, we have Tim Gray. Tim is our knowledgeable guide with the Barangaroo Delivery AuthorityInfrastructure NSW. Tim acknowledges the Gadigal people and their land. Tim's tribes are Gumbaynggirr and Wiradjuri and Bidgigal. Along with Cullen Pope, our podcast host and the editor of the EATT Magazine travel podcast. As Tim says, Barangaroo is right next to Sydney's CBD', however, it provides a considerable contrast to the bustling city center. Which can be found at Barangaroo is a beautiful, peaceful park with wildlife, an abundance of sandstone and 75,000 native plants, trees and shrubs. So if you are looking for a great place to relax, take an Aboriginal cultural tour or enjoy Sydney's exceptionally curated food precinct. Furthermore, you can enjoy a spot of shopping, or wander through the Reserve and soak up the beautiful Sydney Harbour. THE HISTORY OF BARANGAROO: The Reserve of Barangaroo dates back to the early 1800s, not long after the settlers had first arrived to discover the sandstone headland. A quarry was established at the headland to mine the sandstone resources. Buildings were constructed with the characterful sandstone which is now identified as unique to the historic ‘Rocks' precinct at circular quay. In those early years, Barangaroo was a place where ships would dock and, thus, created the central hub for commercial activity. From 1880 to 1900 specialization of the area occurred. Shipyards closed down, and in their place, more substantial storage facilities were built. Larger wharves were created to accommodate modernized container ships that had larger cargo loads.     Barangaroo remained commercial until 2003 “where the government decided that they wanted to do something with the land, give it back to the people because it was no longer a shipping container.” This is where the redevelopment of Barangaroo Sydney started. By referring to watercolor paintings of the area, discovered from the 1800s, reshaping of the headlands to its original form began. In addition, the Hedland was raised to its original height in a mission to recreate the historical aspect of the headland. PLACES TO SEE AT BARANGAROO: Stargazer's Lawn: Tim describes this lawn as ‘a great fate of engineering where, instead of landfill, they've actually created a road bridge technology.' The ‘Cutaway.' The cutaway is used as a performance and art space where diverse events are run every month or so for the public. The cutaway hosts a variety of exhibitions from the Sydney Festival to Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal art exhibitions. Open 24 hours a day, and the Stargazer Lawn is thus named as it is where visitors can sit in the grass at night and watch the stars. At all times, it can be a great place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. You can also see the Sydney observatory tower not far from there. It is also, interestingly, named after the local stargazer fish. Tim describes the fish as having ‘eyes at the top of its head, and it lies at the bottom of the harbor, and it's the same color as the sand. So it camouflages itself from its unsuspecting victims.' You can even buy it at the fish market. WHAT TO DO AT BARANGAROO? If you are a student, taking a study break to Barangaroo Sydney will be a fantastic experience, especially if you are an international student. Barangaroo is a great place to learn more about Aboriginal culture and take a Barangaroo Aboriginal Culture tour. The tour explores the site's rich Aboriginal history and cultural significance. The tours provide an in-depth explanation of the Aboriginal history of Sydney Harbour and its surrounds. This site has significance to Aboriginal Australians. The guides also share the stories of Australia's First Nations People and, in particular, the clans of the Eora Nation. You can also partake in other fun government-run activities, such as a donut baking experience where participants are provided with a unique hands-on experience that will have you rolling, proofing, frying, and glazing some delicious donut creations.
