Abstract

Regardless of your views on his politics, it can easily be argued that Winston Churchill was a ‘Renaissance Man’ and, therefore, it is fitting that I begin this chapter by quoting him: ‘We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us’. I do so because there is little doubt that this is even more relevant to the cities in which we now live, particularly those in the midst of, or striving towards, an era of renaissance and revival. This new renaissance focuses on the assimilation of academia, art, culture, innovation, science and technology in the context of urban entrepreneurship. As such, I will focus specifically on the renaissance of the City of Sydney (the City), rather than the vast, politically fragmented, suburban expanse that is loosely labelled Sydney.
