The Pemulwuy Project
to renew The Block is an important project for Redfern and the City. It will
create new affordable housing for Aboriginal families and provide child care,
student accommodation, shops and a gallery. It will also improve the public
spaces with public art and a better connection to Redfern Station.
Council is involved
because we have agreed to transfer Eveleigh Lane, the eastern part of Caroline
Lane, and seven pockets of land on Eveleigh Street to enable the development to
take place.
The token sum for
the transfer of land is a sign of our support for a project we believe will
revitalise this community and restore its Aboriginal presence.
Council will make a
final decision on granting owner’s consent at its meeting on Monday night and
there will be more opportunities to have a say once the Development Application
is submitted to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure for approval.
