Place Management NSW Board and Placemaking NSW Advisory Committee - Chair and Board Members
Crown Lands and Public Spaces – Sydney NSW
Placemaking NSW creates, manages, and cares for many of Sydney’s unique iconic harbourside locations. Placemaking NSW helps strengthen the connection between these places and the people that share them, generating significant benefits for the people of NSW. Its precincts include The Rocks, Barangaroo, Darling Harbour, Luna Park, Ballast Point Park, waterfront areas in Pyrmont and Bays West, as well as unique venues such as the Chinese Garden of Friendship and major event facilities at the International Convention Centre and White Bay Power Station.
Placemaking NSW is the trading name of Place Management NSW (PMNSW). Its functions are to protect and enhance the natural and cultural heritage of the Sydney foreshore area; promote and secure the orderly and economic development and use of the foreshore area; and promote and conduct cultural, educational, commercial, tourist, recreational, entertainment and transport activities and facilities.
