We were inspired to see the transformation of this small pocket of inner Sydney from harsh, hot, grey bitumen and brick into a cool, earthy, leafy, green and inviting urban environment. The positive psychological effect on the community must be enormous. We particularly love the idea of community compost bins being used to maintain and nourish the gardens. We are definitely going to push this idea with our own local Sustainability Groups.
