    Are Sydney residents ever anything BUT in a froth of outrage at some tweaking of their hyper-sensitive NIMBYist nerve?https://twitter.com/7NewsSydney/status/1008991754605846529 …

    Residents are outraged at plans to knock down historic buildings in Parramatta to make way for a building that helps preserve history the Power House Museum. One set to be bulldozed is an old hospital named 'Willow Grove' and it's more than 100 years old. @campricenews #7News pic.twitter.com/PjoMHbnZrl

        Given the state's cavalier approach to heritage I think this outrage is worthy.

        Bernard, it has always seemed sensible to demolish heritage listed buildings in Australia’s second oldest settlement to build a museum with a 50 storey tower on top of it. Doesn’t it?

        We're just a bit upset about what's left of our history being destroyed, not against progress.

        Agreed. Why ITF would a govt want to knock that down? Other than for back room mates’ deals. Sorry Bernard; modern day Visigoths.

        Hopefully will continue to be so Bernard; some of us to value our heritage and do object to needless bulldozing of the environment for crass commercial/political reasons.

        Ah yes. We need another "multipurpose precinct" aka a museum with apartments and a shopping centre on top. Heritage? Who needs it?

        1. The business case for moving the powerhouse doesnt add up - especially in ticket prices 2. Why the fuck is there a need to knock down heritage buildings to build it?
