Revitalising Powerhouse Ultimo
A landmark project to revitalise one of Australia's most revered museums within Sydney's CBD. The NSW’s Government’s $250 million investment in a heritage renewal will reorient the museum’s main entrance and create a new public square and entry via The Goods Line to enable better connection with surrounding precincts and public transport.
