The Parra metro station construction site has been a bit of a dead zone for a while. Finally filling it will make a massive difference to its CBD.

While there's a case for more offices, if you're going to go with apartments, you may as well go big:

"Four towers of up to 43 storeys will be built above or next to the new Parramatta railway station following the planned opening of the 24-kilometre Metro West line between Sydney CBD and Westmead in 2032.

"The over-station development just north of Parramatta Square will feature 470 apartments – up from 111 outlined in concept plans – and 500 units for student accommodation. It will feature pedestrian laneways and a landscaped park that will form part of a civic link connecting the station to the new Powerhouse Museum and Parramatta River foreshore.

"A 43-storey tower comprising the 470 build-to-rent apartments will be five storeys higher than originally outlined in the concept plans. Subject to planning approval, a 29-storey office building, a 24-level tower for student accommodation and an eight-storey hotel will also be built on the site."

HOW STUPID IS CHRIS MINNS? THE MOST STUPID!
@[email protected] - you created that civil unrest due to your profound ignorance. Riddle me this ... why couldn't he have projected a menorah (Ner Tamid) instead of the genocidal state's flag? Because you're a power tripping idiot! #Auspol #nswpol

Best line: “Alabama on the Yarra” (with that ‘fun in the sun feel) 😎 as in: “Victorian Liberals spent the best part of a quarter-century tearing themselves apart, with much of the past decade given over to Christian fundamentalist entryists trying to seize control and turn the state into Alabama on the Yarra.” ✝️

Thanks for sharing (even tho’ deeply depressing). 🙂🙏🏻

Ohhhh - excellent response to make the point: it’s not the wealthy that die in the fire ‘caused by’ or allowed to happen by the unregulated building developments.

Just see the evidence to the NSW ICAC Operation Rosny for just how callously political wheeler dealers (not even elected! But happy to be brother of elected… I believe it’s called nepotism in some circumstances…) are happy to make money in similar circumstances.

"NSW Premier Cancels Annual Iftar Following Deteriorating Relationship with the Muslim Community

NSW Premier Chris Minns has cancelled the state government’s annual Iftar dinner for the second time in three years, citing “consultation with Muslim community leaders,” amid escalating tensions between the Minns government and sections of the Muslim community. Several leaders say the cancellation reflects a deeper breakdown in trust. Lebanese Muslim Association Secretary Gamel Kheir described the move as “heartbreaking,” adding that under the current climate “no Islamic leaders would have attended anyway.” Liverpool Mayor Ned Mannoun went further, accusing the Premier of having a “fetish” for attacking Muslims. The cancellation of what has traditionally been a symbolic gesture of inclusion during Ramadan has been interpreted by critics as a sign that relations have deteriorated beyond ceremonial repair.

The strained relationship has been building for months, fuelled by the government’s handling of protests in Sydney, the fallout from Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s visit to Australia, and the Premier’s refusal to apologise after police forcibly removed Muslim men praying outside Town Hall during a peaceful protest. Community advocates also point to newly introduced hate speech laws, which they argue disproportionately impact Muslim and pro-Palestine voices under the guise of maintaining public order. While the Minns government maintains its approach is focused on safety and social cohesion, critics say the pattern of rhetoric and policy decisions has created an atmosphere of alienation. As Ramadan unfolds without the state’s official Iftar gathering, many see the cancellation not as a logistical decision, but as a symbol of a relationship that has become increasingly fractured."

Looks like the link for the NSW Parliament inquiry into indoor air quality got truncated; it's https://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/committees/inquiries/Pages/inquiry-details.aspx?pk=3152

A #Nazi rally took place over the weekend in #NSW, approved to take place by NSW #Police, and on this side of it everyone's going "well, *I* didn't know about it, this was clearly a breakdown in communication, we have no idea how this happened" when the easiest answer of "because #cops are #racist" really could just. Be the reason.

Morrison’s decision to reject PEP11 offshore gas exploration licence off the New South Wales coast is set to be overturned as a result of a challenge to Morrison's multiple ministerial appointments.

A decision on the project will then rest with a joint authority made up of both the Commonwealth and NSW govts.

Voters in #Wentworth are strongly opposed to PEP11.

We have campaigned against PEP11 for years & now it looks like we’ll be doing it again
