Broadmeadow Master Plan
Artefact served as the Historical and Aboriginal Heritage Consultant to inform the development of the historic Broadmeadow Locomotive Depot precinct.
The project
Location: Broadmeadow, Newcastle NSW on Awabakal Country
The Broadmeadow Locomotive Depot Precinct has been identified in numerous State and local strategic land use and development plans for its potential future use as residential, commercial and/or employment land.
With the decision to relocate all heritage rolling stock to a more suitable facility at the Chullora Heritage Hub, the site has become surplus to requirements and is available for re-purposing to support the transformation of the Broadmeadow Catalyst Areas.
