Parramatta. 'Discover Parramatta' online soon

Parramatta City Council’s Discover Parramatta website is expected to be operational in January. The site will feature information about cultural and sporting events, restaurants and art galleries as well as the many historic locations and buildings around Parramatta. On the latter, council ignored the historical value of George Street as a suggested route in its “Walk Parramatta – Discover Parramatta on Foot”, pamphlet. George Street has a building or location of note every 200 metres or so, yet “walkers” would leave Parramatta without knowing that it is the city’s most historic thoroughfare.
