The suburban centres of Sydney are MUST SEE TV!

- Masterful urban integration between indoor/outdoor space
- Small retail units for street activation & entrepreneurship
- Centered on fast & frequent suburban rail

We’ve got much to learn from Australia…

The baby ferry to Blackwattle Bay. It's a lot smaller than the big ferries to Manly or Parramatta.

Small green and yellow ferry on a cloudy day with the Sydney skyline in the background. Looking out the rear of the small ferry. Looking towards the front of the small ferry. There is a row of seats down the middle of the boat.

Parramatta Square on a weekday afternoon...

#parramatta #nsw #australia #urbanism #city #cities #streetphotography
Parramatta's famous chrome bus statue. It commemorates the time that Parramatta Stadium was burned down in a rugby league grand final celebration that went too far. As a result, the Parramatta Eels held all their team meetings in a bus. A crowd of people in front of Australia's oldest continually used church. People walking across the square or eating lunch under a tree. Groups of people talking as they walk.

Some more photos from Parramatta Lanes on Saturday.

Parramatta Square was absolutely packed with people and food trucks. Parramatta Town Hall transformed into an Aperol bar. A funky band plays on the main stage near the Leigh Memorial Church. Philippino barbeque stand.

Waiting for a boat at Parramatta Quay...

#photo #photography #parramatta #nsw #australia #ferry
The turning basin for the Parramatta RiverCat ferry service. On the left is a concrete seating area underneath a wooden structure. A wharf, where passengers embark and disembark, floats on the water. A tall apartment skyscraper towers overhead. The sky is very blue, reflected in the water. There's trees on the riverbank in the distance. The same scene as before, shot further around the turning basin. The reflection of the tall apartment skyscraper is now clearly visible in the blue river water. Some more office buildings are now visible to the left of the wooden seating structure. Looking at the Quay from the opposite side, slightly downriver. The sun looks white in this photo against a very blue sky. The water is teal, reflecting a mix of trees and sky. More office buildings are visible on the horizon. A seating area near Parramatta Quay. It's a fairly new and highly varnished wooden structure that looks a bit like a stadium grandstand. Underneath are several rows of concrete bleachers.

A ride on the F3 Parramatta RiverCat ferry, part one. (By the way, this is just a regular part of our public transport system.)

#ferry #boat #travel #urbanism #publictransport #parramatta #photography #nsw #australia
The tall towers of the Parramatta CBD skyline drift away on the horizon as we go around the bend. The sky is blue, and so is the water, with white ripples from the boat's engine. There are thick green bushes on both banks of the river. The sky is blue, but this patch of the river is shady. We pass a yellow, blue, and red apartment block on the left. The city skyline is now barely visible on the horizon. There's a couple of small white clouds in an otherwise blue sky. The mangrove bushes on the river banks are tall and green. Families gather for picnics and children play in a local park on one of the river banks. We're looking sideways, so the water is very calm. The reflections of trees are visible in the water.

One of the best parts of the Parramatta RiverCat is seeing the Sydney Harbour bridges. Plural.

#rivercat #parramatta #nsw #australia #photography #architecture
Pedestrian bridge near Tramway Avenue, just outside the Parramatta CBD. It has a simple arch, and is a lot smaller than its more famous cousin. The sky in this photo is blue, the river is greyish blue with lots of foam from the engines. The Parramatta skyline is visible in the distance. The old rail bridge that connects Rhodes to Meadowbank. It's more of a box-girder design. The sky is still blue, and the sun is big and golden as it approaches the waterline. Some apartment towers in Rhodes are visible on the left. The Drummoyne Bridge. It's a large arch, with the road surface on top rather than suspended below. There are few scattered lavender clouds in the blue sky. The sun is glowing orange. The Parramatta River has broadened out to Sydney Harbour. The water is a deep teal, with white foam from the boat's engine.

Chinese immigrants went to Australia looking for gold.
The first Chinese person recorded in Australia was Mak Sai Ying ( known as John Shying), who arrived as a free settler in Sydney in 1818. Born in Guangzhou, he became a successful entrepreneur, owning land and a publican license in Parramatta

if i had a dollar every time a government planned to transform parramatta road i could probably buy several kilos of beads from one of those weird little bead shops on parramatta road.

My losers from Round 1 of the 2025 #NRL season?

Cowboys, Roosters and Parramatta all shipped a ton of points. My good friend @taxingchimp.bsky.social over in Australia these days said it looked as if NQ wanted their coach sacked based off of that.

NZ Warriors were underwhelming in Vegas also.

Built in 1799, Old Government House in Parramatta is one of Australia's oldest surviving colonial structures. It was home to the then-colony's first 10 governors, including Arthur Philip, Lachlan Macquarie, and William Bligh. #history #australia #nsw
The grand living room, which includes a chandelier, red drapes, and timber floors. The building, as viewed from down the hill. The formal dining room, with red upholstered timber chairs. Portraits of the governors who lived here line the corridor.

“In 2007 Parramatta Eels fans threw coins at departing player Jamie Lyon. Thankfully for [Dylan] Brown Australia has since become a mainly cashless society...

The challenge [is also] confronting the double standard placed upon athletes that expects loyalty in a system designed to control”
