It looks like a park to me Caroline

and on any given night there are dodgy goings on by drunk people stumbling up from mooseheads….

not that I would know anything about that….

*cough*

Glebe Park doesn’t feel like a park – it feels like “Glebe Gardens” being walled ‘n all. Unfortunately “Glebe Park” is long gone – since Canberra’s “anti-history, anti-gardens” government got hold of it some 15 years ago.

Cross the traffic lights at the intersection of London Circuit and Northbourne Ave!

… which is a long way from the cluster of government buildings between Farrell Pl and Gordon St…

Then we just declare Caroline Le Couteur, Greens Planning spokesperson is not an MLA. that should fix the problem quickly.

You’d be surprised how many people are up there having lunch, doing bootcamp, sitting in the sun, on a nice day.

I think the Wikipedia article summarises quite well:

The park is centrally located and well-known, but it is rarely visited as it is away from shops and public areas and is difficult to access because it is surrounded by a major road.

Cross the traffic lights at the intersection of London Circuit and Northbourne Ave!

now if there was only an easy way to actually get to city hill (without dicing with death in the traffic) – it would become a nicer place to hang out. As a former city west worker, it was but a stones throw from our glassed edifice, and not a bad place to hang. Maybe whoever builds on Section 63 will be so kind as to provide a skybridge…
