The idea has already won support from the local indigenous
community with leaders like Mickey Mundine
pledging their support, as revealed in Central last month.
The 2030 plan also calls for a strategy supporting
indigenous businesses, training and cultural facilities.
Most of the plan focuses on the already partially upgraded Redfern Street
precinct and aims to further drive its rebirth though improved street stapes,
roadworks and public spaces.
This would tie in with the recently restored Mum Shirl
Memorial and the upgrade of Redfern Oval now underway.
Mickey Mundine
wants to see an indigenous cultural centre in Redfern.
Some of the indigenous business and cultural opportunities to
be considered will make use of facilities currently under development at the
nearby CarriageWorks site in North Eveleigh.
