Tote Park NSW, Australia (2003)

In the high density suburb of Zetland, green space is at a premium. Tote Park is small but welcoming, and it sits opposite Tote Building – a stylish heritage building that offers meeting and function rooms for special events. In 2003, the City of Sydney developed the park to include a kids playground and a new range of street furniture. Classic Plaza Seats line the pathways, Frame Bin Enclosures keep the park tidy, Bike Stations encourage cyclists to stop and take a break, and a number of Wide Fountains and Cantilever Fountains provide passersby with drinking water.
