Yarra River Action Alliance

Today on my usual run, I ran past a notice. This is what the Honeywell site looks like now,

and this is what it will soon look like,

and this is what it will look like once the development starts. Please try and help save the Yarra river from the development of the ‘Honeywell’ site, where developers are going to build 3 towers between 8 and 11 stories in height, with 586 apartments, 3 restaurants, cafes, a rooftop beer garden with bowling green, pontoon with marina and boat hire facilities, reaching all the way down to the river, that will destroy the wild life and the surrounding areas, causing irreversible damage, not to mention permanently ruining this tranquil and undisturbed area.

I know I know, I sound like the boring, crazy old hippy, standing, perhaps naked to draw attention, outside the local town hold, holding a flimsy cardboard sign, in hopes that it will save the environment. Seemingly a lost cause. However, by simply signing the petition at http://yarrariveractionalliance.com/, you can help to try and save this beautiful area from the extensive development of this eye sore in the heart of the Yarra. Sign it. Sign it now. or else..
