Exciting to see stage 2 of our other great waterfront promenade - the new 600m-long arc remaking the Lake Burley Griffin’s West Basin lake edge in Canberra - nearing completion.
8.1m wide, matched precisely to the original Griffin geometry, it will bring a civic presence to the City’s lakefront
Project with @janeirwin_landscape & @arupgroup, realised by others

Our #parramattaescarpmentboardwalk in full flood! The embrasures between the panels operating as fountain of spillways! The Boardwalk is designed tough to withstand flood waters several metres higher than these. There are so many dimensions to th e design of these embrasures, combining compliance, construction & design. The embrasures ease the junctions between the precast panels in terms of assembly & allow expansion of the concrete. They allow views down to the water & decrease the solidity of balustrade, catch the sun... & dispel the water! @hillthalisaup with @mcgregorwestlake @janeirwin_landscape @waterloverswim @aaronj_murray Construction @abergeldie_infrastructure for @cityofparramatta #flood #parramattariver #parramatta #floodway #floodwater #spillway #embrasure #promenade #construction #robustconstruction #engineering #infrastructure #publicprogram #publicproject #publicparramatta

Revisiting the open down pipes of our canopy structure (copper lined, sitting within the steel columns) at Pirrama Park in Pyrmont. Sublimely beautiful scene, even if a bit too wet for most people to venture down. The roof water is stored & treated for toilet flushing @HillThalisAUP with @ASPECTLandscape & #cabconsulting for @cityofsydney Team; @waterloverswim @wesgrunsell @benjidriver #libbygallagher #rain #downpipe #waterconservation #copperdownpipe #expressedstructure #canopystructure #pirramaparkpyrmont #pirramapark #pyrmontwaterfront #publicplace #publicspace #publicproject #publicsydney
