The project was delivered through a design construct process. To ensure that the client and community expectations of design quality were achieved, Tract was commissioned as Peter Walker Partners’ site representative,

with responsibility for review and troubleshooting of site issues during the construction phase, ensuring that the final implementation achieved the design and quality expectations.

Site-sourced sandstone was sustainably re-used and placed as an abstraction of the former sandstone foreshore. Soil and vegetation have been designed as one integrated natural system.

These elements have been brought together in a simple and refined manner to create a unique and delightful experience for pedestrians moving along the winding foreshore.

The design team has created a place where the people of Sydney, Australia and the world can marvel at the city, experience the ecology, play, relax, climb, cycle, learn about the past landscape, and experience firsthand the amazing contribution that landscape architects can make to the urban environment.
