Berrys Bay
Berrys Bay forms a ‘missing link’ in publicly accessible foreshore open space on the Peninsula, sitting between Carradah Park to its north and Balls Head Reserve to its south. Berrys Bay will be returned to the community for public open space after it is no longer required for construction of the Western Harbour Tunnel. CONTEXT has developed a Landscape Masterplan that shapes the vision for the future of Berrys Bay as a public space.
The Masterplan aims to heal Country, converting grey infrastructure to green and blue, and bringing Indigenous histories and stories to life, as well as reflecting the multiple layers of history that such a site brings with it. Environmental repair through the reintroduction of habitat and rehabilitating of existing ecologies will drive landscape interventions and design solutions.

Open spaces and parklands allow for flexibility in responding to evolving needs of the local community and broader Sydney public.
Continuous, publicly accessible connections to the harbour foreshore are a priority, revealing a variety of experiences of the water’s edge throughout the site.
