National Trust Heritage Awards - Ingleburn Weir CM+ Heritage received a High Commendation Award for the Heritage Impact Statement prepared for Ingleburn Weir in collaboration with Campbelltown City Council and the Department of Primary Industries (Fisheries), at the 2008 Energy Australia National Trust Heritage Awards. The awards judges comments included: 'This project recognises that there can be conflicts between the natural and the built environment. In this instance allowing the historic weir to be changed was important to restore the passage of fish upstream.' Woollahra Conservation Award - Rose Bay Promenade Rose Bay Promenade was awarded the Woollahra Conservation Award 2008 'Overall Winner', at an awards ceremony at Woollahra Council on 1 December 2008. Nominated by the Woollahra History and Heritage Society on behalf of the people of NSW, the award recognises the importance of this urban regeneration initiative and the quality of professional design advice provided by CM+. The citation reads: 'The conservation and restoration work done by Woollahra Council on this very difficult and contentious site achieved a result that has been universally praised and recognised as the best possible outcome in the circumstances.

The Rose Bay Promenade deserves to be the exemplar for similar developments and restorations of our coastal and harbour foreshores.' |
