The government has released proposed new planning controls for the existing Sydney Fish Market and claims it has listened to the community by allocating a mix of residential and commercial space. But people would be speechless at the wall of towers along the harbour with heights reaching 45 storeys, overshadowing the public foreshore and blocking the water from the rest of Pyrmont – exactly what the community has long opposed.
