Sydney Fish Market

@mish3091 @hughriminton Our current site unfortunately doesn’t use solar power, but our new home is being built as we speak! For information on the project, visit the iNSW website: newsydneyfishmarket.insw.com/insw/new-sydne…

@SydFishMarket @hughriminton How much electricity do you generate via rooftop solar? And what is the shortfall to your requirement?

Diesel generators at #SydneyFishMarket doing their best to darken a perfect blue winter sky 🤨

#Exclusive: The @SydFishMarket is undergoing a major facelift, with millions of litres of seawater being drained in what is being hailed as an engineering marvel.

Tenancies are now available at the NSW government’s new waterfront @SydFishMarket, which is part of the revitalisation of Blackwattle Bay. ow.ly/lhSr50PapKB

@LochelGary @hughriminton Hi Gary - your first suggestion is correct: this is a temporary emergency measure due to power grid issues impacting the site. Hope that assuages any concerns!

@hughriminton Is there an emergency power need or is this a everyday occurrence??

@hughriminton The generator itself is also a temporary measure due to power grid issues that have been impacting the site; these issues are also due to be fixed very shortly. We hope that assuages any concerns you may have!

@hughriminton Hi Hugh. Many of the replies to your tweet are correct in saying that these fumes are not normal and were a result of a maintenance issue (fuel filters requiring changing), which was rectified this morning.

@TerryDwyerSyd @AtrocityAntip @Lid05 HA!

@AtrocityAntip @Lid05 That's true. Maybe the walrus or blue whale themed uniforms would be more suitable for those gentlemen

@Doodledido @ABCaustralia We can't wait for the new site - it's going to be so amazing for tourists and locals alike!

@SydFishMarket @ABCaustralia Oops! Didn’t mean to offend by calling it ‘crappy’ but I just hate the site of all that bitumen. At least it’s in the car park, unlike other markets. Markets here are very inauspicious, compared to OS. Great to see the new $750million fish market is due for completion in 2024.

@ABCaustralia hard to believe that the crappy Sydney fish markets are the biggest in the Southern Hemisphere as claimed in the ABC - please explain!!!

@rosiebatts @Richardvines That is the ideal way to visit the Market - you know your stuff!

@Richardvines We had a great lunch at Sydney fish market last month, pick a fish monger - they cook the fish / seafood for you, grab a bottle of wine and enjoy the sea view. Wallet friendly super fresh seafood.

I'm planning a trip to Australia. Does anyone have Sydney or Brisbane restaurant recommendations, please?

@redruby17 It was actually 100 tonnes of prawns :) What can we say, Aussies love their seafood!

Today I ate some cheese and hommous, and that was plenty. I dont think we ever did the whole Sydney fish market cray cray for cray dance. I just saw on the news they sold 10 ton of prawns- how? Who? Why?

sunriseon7: It wouldn't be Good Friday in Australia without seafood, and people hit seafood stores like the @SydFishMarket early to stock up on the freshest supplies. Start with Sunrise | weekdays from 5:30am on @Channel7 and streaming live on @7plus.

@sizer_brad Love you too!

Australian prawns have been feeding and breeding at a “higher rate” than usual amid the flooding the country has faced in the past two years – resulting in “high-quality” prawns “bringing the price down”, says Sydney Fish Markets’ Alex Stollznow. skynews.com.au/business/austr…

Preparations are already underway for the big Easter feast, with the Sydney fish market expecting more than 50,000 customers this weekend. @SarahStewart_9 #9News

@cba1967 @RobStokesMP We're both a wholesale auction and one of Sydney's most popular tourist attractions, making the plans very much fit for purpose! Hope that helps!

@RobStokesMP @SydFishMarket Does fit for purpose mean the little fishies can swim into it? Rather than looking like a concert hall on the water, surely a non-waterfront generic warehouse could achieve the same at a 10th of the cost.

We’ve just overcome a major engineering hurdle in construction of the new @SydFishMarket. 100 million litres of water has been drained from Blackwattle Bay.

@banksiaaa Yay!

yay! new sydney fish market ☺️

@FrancesWilmore Very! To quote Rob Stokes: "This is an engineering feat that has enabled the creation of a new public boardwalk along the foreshore four football fields in length and 15 metres wide where people can walk, ride and linger after a long lunch at Sydney Fish Market." Hope that helps!

@squidjum @abcnews Sorry Julia ☹️

@HBangwaller @WesternWilson9 @9NewsSyd Incorrect info - so sorry!

@SydFishMarket @WesternWilson9 @9NewsSyd We were told by the Police to find parking in the street

The Christmas rush has well and truly started at the @SydFishMarket this morning. 350 tonnes of seafood is expected to be sold over the next 36 hours. Plenty of customer already getting in early. @9NewsSyd #9News
