City riverfront facelift
Premier Alan Carpenter announced a $300m Perth Waterfront Project to rejuvenate the city foreshore entertainment area. The project follows last week’s announcement that the Government would also build a $1.1 billion outdoor stadium in Subiaco and a $506 million museum at the former East Perth Power Station site. Planning and Infrastructure Minister Alannah MacTiernan said the project would ensure the city’s premier entertainment venue was linked to public transport and a brilliant urban environment. The first phase of development would include cafes, bars, shops and offices for thousands of employees, residential dwellings and housing, Ms MacTiernan said. Sunday Times (Perth), February 17.
