1. You oppose the State Government plans to demolish four historic terraces at numbers 9, 7, 5 and 3 on Union Street to make way for a proposed metro train station in Pyrmont...
2. We ask the government to place the railway station either underneath the new Casino complex which has not yet been constructed or on Union Street itself between Pyrmont and Edward Streets which could be permanently closed off at no cost to the State Government. And no loss of jobs in the local community.
We are approaching 500 signatures before I submit our formal proposal to the Planning Department. This threshold provides the necessary leverage for our meeting with the transit authorities next week.
June 20, 2009
The increase in public interest has prompted a formal inquiry from local news outlets regarding the relocation proposals for the metro station. I am currently preparing the documentation to present our alternative site plan to the Department of Planning.

Seriously? The casino has plenty of space. Leave union street alone.

Ridiculous plan. Just put the station under the casino site like everyone with half a brain has suggested. Stop destroying the heritage buildings.

Total waste of money and heritage. Why are we always tearing everything down in this city.

I have lived here for 20 years and its heartbreaking to see them tearing down these terraces. They are beautiful homes not just old brick.

Keep our history. Pyrmont is losing all its character to these massive concrete towers and we dont need another one.

Protect the terraces. Once they are gone you cant get them back. Stop the demolition now.
