We recently handed over two projects to City of Ryde: Wilga Park and Coulter Street upgrade. Both projects feature sustainable design, unique public artwork and smart technology to provide safe, modern and vibrant new community space. 

Wilga Park bursts to life

The Wilga Park upgrade is part of City of Ryde’s vision to connect parkland and open space along the Shrimptons Creek Corridor, and align with the precinct activation strategy to enhance the area for everyone that lives, visits and works in Macquarie Park.

Glascott redeveloped the existing park into an event location and relaxing recreation space with a terraced amphitheatre, new amenities, fitness equipment and improved pedestrian connections.

New lighting provides safe and accessible spaces while highlighting the soft landscaping and vibrant new public artwork – ‘Burst’ – a landmark sculpture, and the exercise Mandala known as ‘Flower, Sun, Moon, Head’ – born out of the Public Art Strategy for Macquarie Park and created by ARTSCAPE.

Over on Coulter Street

City of Ryde is committed to creating neighbourhoods that thrive and grow through sustainable design and planning, and the Coulter Street upgrade showcases this promise.

Once a stark and service-driven laneway in Gladesville, Coulter Street has been transformed into a viable and attractive pedestrian link.
