The development of Parliament Square that would see several 20th Century buildings demolished, including the 1960s office block 10 Murray Street, and the 1950s Art Deco former Government Printing Offices has been rejected. RMPAT (the Resource Management Planning Tribunal) refused the application for development.

About the project
Join me (Thomas Ryan Photography) on a photographic project documenting Tasmanian 20th Century Modernism from the 1930's to the 1980's. The entire project gallery of 1000+ images and counting can be viewed on my website www.tryanphotos.com under art projects. I have been undertaking this project for over a decade.
My portfolio of commercial and art projects can be seen on my website www.tryanphotos.com and I can be contacted here as well. All photographs are copyright of Thomas Ryan Photography. Unauthorised use is prohibited. Contact me for all enquires
Good news - while I can't say I am particularly in love with the look of 10 Murray St, it seemed incredibly wasteful to knock down a building that is perfectly functional.
ReplyDeleteAlso, every time I heard/read the words whole "Federation Square-style development" I couldn't help but cringe...
Great angle, by the way.
