This unique elevated park has seen a disused rail corridor running from Railway Square to Darling Harbour reimagined as a leafy, energised civic spine in the heart of Sydney’s most densely populated area. Beyond its primary connectivity function, The Goods Line is filled with ‘social infrastructure’ from bleachers, bench seats and an amphitheatre to fully-enabled wifi, a children’s play area, table tennis tables and raised lawns. This new platform for public engagement provides a transformative social and environmental role in the precinct. The space also serves as a powerful metaphor for the city’s move from an industrial past to a modern knowledge economy.
Bespoke concrete formal seating and fixtures hark back to The Goods Line’s industrial past while the blurred boundaries along its length are designed for programmed pop-up events and festivals, injecting a sense of community into a previously disused urban expanse. The intentionally non-linear design shifts as it moves along the line to create rich, sub-spaces for different usages. It is a designed to promote opportunities for pausing, occupying and using the corridor in ways beyond merely passing through.
