Alexandria, Sydney Park, pond

Sydney Park is a former brickworks that has been transformed into 44 hectares of parkland, in the inner city suburb of Alexandria. This storm water retention pond, with a weir, stores rainwater for the connected ponds and wetland areas in the park.

  3. I always love it when cities make a beautiful park out of a utilitarian area. We have visited several such areas for the lovely water and terrific birdwatching it brings.

  9. Great reflections. It always heartens me when I hear that parklands are being made istead of using it for high density living.
