The history of the site dates back as early

as 7,000 years ago known for transporting

goods mainly food from Darling Harbour

along the Parramatta river. The site used

to be in water, only until 1980’s onwards

where Darling Harbour was transformed

into a place for the people of Sydney with

reclamation of land from the existing Cockle

bay into what Tumbalong park is today. For

many years the site hasn’t been used for any

projects other than an open green space for

temporary events.
