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."

‘I didn’t go looking for trouble’: Protester sues NSW after allegedly being punched by police at Herzog rally
Shadid had requested officers to stop advancing as people were on the ground praying.
"Const Daniel Stewart then allegedly dragged Shadid, who had travelled from Parramatta, to the ground and punched him in the face and twisted his wrist. Another officer kneeled on his head"

Research shows the visible presence of long arms in public actually *reduces* both objective and subjective measures of safety.
1. This does not make most people feel more safe.
The visible presence of instruments of death and maiming in a context has measurable and pernicious effects on free speech and even free thought. The visible presence of firearms tends to increase most people's level of stress hormones (adrenaline, cortisol), triggering our fight/flight/freeze response while inhibiting higher order cognitive functions. Even where this effect is mild, across a whole population over time, it makes a cultural difference.
Research also shows people tend to self-censor more while in the presence of firearms, and are less likely to be generous or vulnerable.

Political dissent will ALWAYS be targeted by the state, using the tools they claim they put in place to "protect" the oppressed.
The master's tools...

Chris Minns, NSW Premier: "for the sake of Social Cohesion™, we're inviting a wanted war criminal from a rogue state to visit, granting police extraordinary emergency powers to forcefully suppress the expression of non-approved messages in non-approved locations, and installing extra Social Cohesion™ fences and barriers in the middle of the city. In order to ensure maximum Social Cohesion™ please don't come into the city, and if you do, then disobeying the instructions of one of the 3,000 Social Cohesion™ officers will result in a $5,000 fine. This is for your own good. You will cohere, or else."

CW: A note to non-Australians about Australia Day, 26 January
@futzle Every year, the 26th January sees Invasion Day protest marches and other events mourning genocide and dispossession, celebrating the survival of many of the oldest continuous cultures in the world, and expressing ongoing resistance led by local Indigenous peoples across the continent.
In Gadi (Sydney), most years see tens of thousands of people march from the city to the Yabun festival in Vic Park.
This year will be especially important, given the NSW government's efforts to suppress protest in the name of 'social cohesion' (because denying people a voice has always turned out really well for long-term cohesion, right?). Organisers are planning to march, even if the government extends the anti-protest laws for another two weeks. The more people show up, the less likely it is that the authorities decide to cause trouble.

This has been posted several times on social media. I can't vouch for it, but other sources concur.

Senior police have taken less than a day to deploy anti-protest powers that were rushed into law after the Bondi Beach terror attack.
NSW Police late on Christmas Eve moved to ban protest rallies from key metropolitan areas in Sydney after legislation was passed earlier the same morning to allow the action following declared terrorist incidents.
Meanwhile, Indigenous groups have raised concerns an extension of the police anti-protest designation could render "invasion day" protests on January 26 unlawful.
Mr Minns said the assemblies could take place, although he drew a distinction between static rallies and marches through the city.

Recently there have been several misleading media articles (in reputable sources) regarding pedestrian, cyclist and personal mobility device road deaths deaths in Australia.
Some have “inaccurately suggested that e-scooters and e-bikes played a significant part in the rise in pedestrian deaths”, when “the fatalities were in fact the riders of e-scooters” (ABC Correction)

CW: #NSWPol Women of regional NSW are still waiting for their North Sydney swimming pool.
Another of Scott Morrison monumental stuff ups: the North Sydney heritage-listed pool is still a shambles despite the $10 million pre-election pork bonus diverted from regional women’s sport to get Trent Zimmerman elected.
