Help Save Our City Shops

If the Lord Mayor’s 2028 timeline proceeds, seven historic buildings including the iconic Park House and the Coronation Hotel will be reduced to rubble.

Your local Woolworths and Big W will be gone.

 This act of state-sanctioned vandalism will wipe out over 800 local jobs in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis, stripping the CBD of essential grocery and retail amenities that thousands of residents rely on daily.

We are being asked to sacrifice nearly 80 years of family heritage and a thriving local ecosystem for a $200+ million “white elephant” that the Council’s own experts warn will be a financial disaster. We cannot let them trade our history for a windswept, neglected, unwanted plaza.

The City of Sydney expects us to go quietly. They expect us to accept the destruction of our heritage as "inevitable." They are wrong.

Every signature on our petition, every shared story, and every ratepayer who speaks up is a brick in the wall protecting our city’s soul.
