Residents of Green Square in Sydney now have a new recreational destination with the recent opening of the Gunyama Park Aquatic & Recreation Centre in the Epsom Park precinct.
The latest addition to the City of Sydney’s recreational assets, the 7,475-square-metre facility is the result of a design collaboration between Andrew Burges Architects, international practice Grimshaw and landscape architects Taylor Cullity Lethlean. The design team was chosen from an international pool of over 150 entries in 2014.
Consisting of an impressive aquatic centre comprising four pools and extensive fitness and wellness facilities, the $106.5-million Gunyama Park Aquatic & Recreation Centre was conceptualised to provide a much needed social recreation space to the growing population of Green Square, which is nearly 40,000 today but is expected to cross 60,000 as the precinct reaches its full development potential.

Let’s be quite clear. A pool is not a beach. A beach is given by nature. A public swimming pool is a major investment of time and effort purely for the health and solace of others. As such, it’s a primary marker of civilisation.
Few pleasures compare with that of a gentle 10-minute stroll, a few outdoor laps, and a walk home. For me, at least, this is prime locational criterion. So I’ve always been mystified that we, with the perfect climate and culture for it, have so few public pools. More mysterious still is that we concentrate those few pools on demographics already aquatically blessed – with private pools, ocean pools and beaches.
