| Abstract: | The 2000 Olympic Games were a conduit for change in Sydney, including the construction of a super‐yacht marina in Rozelle Bay. Using this marina as an entry point, notions of landscape/waterscape and environmental history (including the discourses of planning for the Olympic Games and maintaining a ‘working harbour’) are developed to explain what environmental changes have occurred, been rejected and why. |
