    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    Attended the Waterfront for All zoom yesterday and they shared a excerpt of the 2015 Aecom Report for Porter's suggested 200m expansion to the west. Even with this shorter extension, the water cyling of the inner harbour (apparently water generally enters through the west and exits through the...

    With regards to the Convention Island, this would be my guess for where the infill would go. Relatively shallow and underused marina that sits between Exhibition Ground and Billy Bishop. With greening of the current yacht club pier it can potentially become a nice waterfront boardwalk connection...
