An Australian Park Has Been Named Most Innovative In The World

The 2020 Architizer A+ Awards are in and an Australian park has been named one of the most innovative in the world!

Environmental Protection

Sydney Park, which borders St Peters, Newtown, Alexandria and Erskineville, and is 40 hectares of glorious green spaces, rolling hills, wetlands, and ponds has been recognised as one of the most innovative parks in the 2020 Architizer A+ Awards. Thanks to its contributions to the community and the environment through Sydney Park's intricate water scheme that channels around 85 million litres of stormwater for treatment and re-use every year, the park has taken out the Jury Award in the Architecture + Water category - go Sydney!

Award-Winning Sydney Park

Sydney Park is no stranger to awards. The super cool Sydney Park Bike Track also took out the gold medal in the landscape design category at the DRIVENxDESIGN 2020 Sydney Design Awards earlier this year. 

A Visit To Sydney Park

If you haven't already taken the kids for a day out at Sydney Park, you don't know what you're missing! Along with being incredibly pleasing on the eyes with all that greenery, Sydney Park has family facilities in abundance. Sydney Park has a cycling centre with a fantastic bike track, large open areas for walking, cycling and ball games as well as an off-leash dog park. There is a cafe on site, toilets, waterways and lots of bushlands to explore. Children will love the playground with a large slide hill, a wall of swings, rope bridge, elevated sandpits and a tactile garden to stimulate the senses.
