This is such a good news story & exactly the sort of active transport infrastructure that needs to be built across NSW. This directly extends the connectivity just provided by our Parramatta Escarpment Boardwalk Bravo @parracity @ClrDonnaDavis @RobStokesMP #publicparramatta

A diagonal bridge across Parramatta River built in Western Sydney from Australian Steel is a great outcome for @parracity The number of people choosing to walk, jog & cycle is on the rise & this bridge will improve connectivity @atparramatta @ChrisMinnsMP @RobStokesMP @GeoffLeeMP

In light of recent AA Unbuilt Awards and forthcoming symposium on unrealised work @EventualHorizon contemplates a different question - how do architects view their legacy? Consider that it could be more than just the buildings (and designs) left behind...

Architecture awards are an important part of the profession's culture - therefore it's important to consider what they're for and who they're for.... thought-provoking musings from @EventualHorizon https://t.co/TMn0AFBYLj

Late last year I recorded a @BuiltworksMedia Podcast about our Doorzien and Zuster Houses, a pair of semi-detached dwelling projects driven by fantastic clients who understood the value of the architect (amongst many other things). Listen here!

An excellent choice, very glad to see Kathlyn in this role - as NSW APE Convenor I look forward to working with the @A_A_C_A_ in the ongoing transformation of registration and accreditation processes for the Australian #architecture profession and beyond

So I'm on the light rail and the driver is singing very loudly and slightly out of tune 'Smooth Operator' by Sade... #publictransport #sydney #80sclassics
