Save the Powerhouse

Sydney's Powerhouse Museum is an iconic public institution. But the Liberal government is proposing to sell-off our Powerhouse to developers for yet more high rise apartments. 

Over 3,000 people have signed our petition calling on the Premier to stop the sell-off - add your name. 

------

Dear Premier,

I am writing to strongly protest against the sale of the Powerhouse building in Ultimo to property developers. This building is an integral part of Sydney’s unique landscape and should be kept for the public to enjoy.

The Powerhouse Museum is an important part of the city’s cultural life, and to see the building converted into apartments and taken away from the community is a disaster for all Australians.

Nationally significant buildings should be kept in public hands to ensure their preservation and long-term public use, rather than sold off to the highest bidder.
