About this event
Cities and transport infrastructure are continually evolving to cater to the needs of the time. Explore the history, politics and background of The Rocks and how these factors influenced the creation of the place and transport within the area.
Starting at the First Fleet Park, form your own view of one of Sydney Harbour’s most iconic precincts on this walking tour led by urban design and public space experts, Diana Griffiths and Kurt Iveson, before retiring to a nearby pub to network.
This tour is open to all in NSW, not just EPN members, providing an inclusive opportunity for anyone with an interest in Sydney's urban design and transport history.
