A favourite detail in #Gadigalstation in Sydney’s new metro are the timber seats & matching resting rail, which contrast beautifully with the arched white wall panels. Everyday amenity, warmth & tactility - popular too! Bravo @FosterPartners & @COXArchitecture #publicsydney

@MrParchester @historyinmemes No and then!

Who knew ordering food could be so difficult

23% - the % of the homelessness population that is 12-24yrs old. 0 - the # of affordable rental properties for someone on Youth Allowance. 47% - % of 15-24yr olds who come to homelessness services & need long-term housing. Only 4.3% get it. Our youth deserve better. #YHMD2024

I’ve finished my maximum term on the NCGE, and we are looking for 3 new members to join the team. Gender, equity, and diversity are an important and continued focus for our profession as we look to be more representative of the communities we serve.

Dr Michael Zanardo, an architect & urban designer who specialises in affordable and public housing, said Sydney “absolutely needs to build more public housing, soon and at volume”. “When it was completed, Greenway was seen as a real achievement and a sign of progress. Would we build Greenway again quite like this today? Probably not, but there are some excellent lessons there for future projects,” smh.com.au/national/nsw/f… @MichaelZanardo is right - if we are going to fix this problem we need to get our skates on - start now and keep on going. @RoseBJackson #nswpol

Here’s an unbelievably good news story; grand White Bay Powerstation almost ready to open as an Arts Centre. Metro will be at front door. Bravo NSW Govt - Will be a treasure of #publicsydney architectureau.com/articles/dorma…

@PhilipThalis here is the real estate listing Unit 1 realestate.com.au/property/unit-… Unit 2 realestate.com.au/property/unit-…

Or Try pointy end of triangle to the front - this one just nearby in Little Albion St. Then go figure how you get 2 front doors in such a tiny frontage! Look again.. These triangular lots go back to Battle of Surry Hills street grids-Meehan 1811 vs Mitchell 1840’s 2/3

@stukhan Q so what are some of the smallest #sydneyterracehouses -by frontage or land area? Try this pair of triangular ones! Cnr Fitzroy & Waterloo Sts in Surry Hills.. looks tiny on the street front, but tapers to barely 1m wide at rear! Land area just 28.89m2 (NearMaps) 🧵

@PhilipThalis @stukhan wow! 28.89m2!!
