| 25 February 2010 | We applaud the Sydney Morning Herald's somewhat changed position on Barangaroo in several articles on 24 and 25 February. It is encouraging to see some "reporting" of different views rather than attempts to create debate with extraordinary statements without resorting to fact.
The debate about Barangaroo's future should be balanced and based on accurate information. We will continue to publish accurate images and much more information about Barangaroo at www.barangaroo.com. Detailed information is also open for all at The Barangaroo Display on Wednesdays and Saturdays in the Old Ports Building (47-51 Hickson Road, Millers Point). more |

The plan for Barangaroo absolutely addresses this issue as a major focus. 50% public open space, 2.7 hectares of Northern Cove and new harbour water area, a new Southern Cove, shade on the public promenade and the trees and soft-scaping with the Lend Lease plan all address this issue. Barangaroo will be carbon neutral, water positive and generate zero waste, playing a significant part in addressing climate change for all of Sydney. more |
