About the Coal Loader
The Coal Loader Centre for Sustainability (the Coal Loader) is the face of sustainability at North Sydney Council.
Located on the Waverton waterfront, the Coal Loader is a place to relax, be inspired, grab a coffee or lunch, and learn.
It is a platform for the delivery of a wide range of sustainability programs and a location where people can visit to be inspired to make change for sustainability in their lives.
It is a community meeting point and hub for Council's extensive range of environmental and sustainability programs and a site with an interesting history as an ex-industrial coal bunkering site on Sydney Harbour.
It has been transformed into a place which displays best-practice sustainable technology, community gardens, native bush nursery, food gardens, regenerated parklands and a fascinating history.Photo: General Manager Ken Gouldthorp, Mayor Jilly Gibson, Council’s Landscape Architect/Project Manager David Banbury and Council Director of Open Space and Environmental Services Robert Emerson with the Parks and Leisure Australia ‘Park of the Year’ award and another award the Coal Loader picked up this week – the 2018 Sustainable Cities award for Heritage and Culture – on the Coal Loader Platform.
