WestWyck News

Rose Read from the Northern Alliance for Greenhouse Action visited Christie Walk last month. She was asked whether she had heard of WestWyck! Rose made the following comparisons and comments and sent through a photograph of a very well vegetated Christie Walk.

‘Similar and yet different; both great practical demonstrations of liveable environments ‘Dare I say I was so impressed by the place and what has been achieved? We were fortunate to have a brief tour and overview from someone who has been living there for some years now. She paid tribute to the vision and enormous commitment of the pioneers. It was interesting to note that while designed for environmental sustainability it was the social connections which have been a powerful unintended consequence, to the point where they've been asked by Adelaide Council to assist a new housing project just up the road, on ways to get people working together.’
