The Spectacles Wetlands

The Spectacles Wetlands (Nyungar: Djinining) is a wetland located in the eponymous suburb, 30 kilometres (19 mi) south of the central business district of Perth, the capital of Western Australia. It is part of Beeliar Regional Park. It consists of two distinct swamps, the Large Eye Swamp in the north and the Small Eye Swamp in the south. The wetland is also on the City of Kwinana heritage list. History The area of the Beeliar Regional Park, with its freshwater lakes, was an important camping area and source of food for the Beeliar clan of the Whadjuk people from the Noongar nation. A major trade route connecting the Swan and Murray River passed through the wetlands of what is now Beeliar Regional Park. European records of the Spectacles Wetlands date back to 1841, when the area was first surveyed by Thomas Watson. The Spectacles were part of the Peel Estate post-First World War Group Settlement Scheme but, unlike the other wetlands of the estate, were not drained at the time. The Peel Main Drain runs through the wetland and the supporting Baldivis tramway run to the west of it. The wetland is now part of Beeliar Regional Park, being the southern-most component of the park, and a Bush Forever site. It has an area of 350 hectares (865 acres) and features include a 4.7-kilometre (3 mi) Aboriginal Heritage Trail around the larger, northern, wetland, and the Biara Boardwalk Trail on the western side of it. Public access to the wetlands is through the carpark on McLaughlain Road, on the western side of the Spectacles. The access road on the eastern side, Spectacles Drive, has been closed off. A large part of the wetlands is under private ownership by Alcoa but open to the public. Alcoa purchased the land for industrial purposes and as a dump site but its wetland nature meant it was unsuitable for such a purpose. Through the same evaluation it also became clear that the area was of high conservation value. On 13 May 1998, the Spectacles Wetlands were added to the Town of Kwinana, now City of Kwinana, heritage list. Flora In common with other areas of the regional park, the upland of the Spectacles is an area of low woodland and forest of eucalypts, casuarina and banksia, consisting of jarrah, Corymbia calophylla, candlestick banksia, firewood banksia and western sheoak. In the wetland component of the Spectacles, the vegetation consists of swamp paperbark, stout paperbark, Melaleuca teretifolia and flooded gum. Sedges in the form of Isolepis are also present at the southern wetland of the Spectacles; those are rare.

Little Italy, Melbourne

Little Italy in Victoria, Australia (also referred to as simply Lygon Street), is a Little Italy cultural precinct of the Italian community of Melbourne. It is situated along Lygon Street in the inner-Melbourne suburb of Carlton. According to the 2006 Australian census, Victoria has the largest Italian-Australian population in Australia (around 200,000 statewide), with much of its inner-Melbourne population recorded in the suburbs of Carlton and nearby Brunswick. Lygon Street is home to a large concentration of Italian restaurants, and is the birthplace of Melbourne's "cafe culture". Because of this, Melbourne was named as a sister city to Milan, Italy in 2004. Restaurants The precinct's renowned Italian restaurant district occupies a number of blocks between Queensberry Street in the South, along Lygon Street, to Elgin Street in the north. Restaurants can also be found along the streets intersecting Lygon Street, towards the Carlton Gardens in the East and the University of Melbourne in the West. The Lygon Street Festa is an annual celebration of Italian culture and cuisine and is Melbourne's first and original street festival held in the district each November. Towards the centre of the district, on the corner of Lygon Street and Argyle Place, there is a small Italian-inspired piazza named Piazza Italia - a joint-redevelopment by Melbourne and its sister city, Milan, in Italy. During the annual Australian Grand Prix, the restaurant district is bathed in red and yellow banners in support of the Ferrari Formula One racing team. It was also a major site of Australian celebrations when Italy's national football team won the 1982 FIFA World Cup and 2006 FIFA World Cup. References External links Lygon Street Festa

Little Manly Beach

Little Manly Beach is situated on the northern shore of Sydney Harbour, within Little Manly Cove, which is separated from the larger Manly Cove by Manly Point. History In 1809 surveyor James Meehan drew up two plots of land in the Manly area, one for Richard Chears and one for Gilbert Baker. Richard Chears' land encompassed what we know today as Little Manly. On Meehan’s field book drawing, ‘Little Manly’ is clearly written. In 1879 tenders were called for the construction of two new baths in the Manly Municipality, one for women in Manly Cove and one for men at the western end of Little Manly Cove. The baths were opened in May 1880. Over the years a constant process of renewal of the baths structure has taken place due to storm damage and natural depreciation, though there has continuously been an enclosure since the original construction. There is a concrete boat ramp on the eastern end of the beach, one of the few concrete ramps on the northern shore of Port Jackson. Behind the beach are public toilets and a kiosk. The beach is a popular place for families because of the presence of the baths and a grassed picnic area, as well as a children's playground.

Loch McNess

Loch McNess (Nyungar: Wagardu Lark), also known as Yanchep Lake, is a freshwater lake located near Yanchep in the northern part of the coastal plain of Perth, Western Australia. Loch McNess is part of the Wanneroo wetlands, a chain of lakes, and is part of the Yanchep National Park. Water from the lake was used to refill the underground pools and streams in some of the nearby caves, however the project was ultimately unsuccessful and subsequently discontinued. Description The lake is named after Charles McNess, a wealthy Western Australian philanthropist. Galaxiidae (fish) and gilgies (freshwater crayfish) are endemic to the region. Introduced species include mosquitofish (Gambusia). CSIRO study nutrients and plankton in the lake. The lake is also known as Wagardu Lark by the Nyoongar people and along with the caves is of significant cultural importance. Since European colonisation of the area and specifically with the building of Gloucester Lodge on its shores in 1933 it has traditionally been used for boating outings. There is no longer sufficient water in the lake for boating. See also List of lakes of Australia § Western Australia References

Logan Hyperdome

Logan Hyperdome Shopping Centre in Shailer Park, Queensland, is the largest shopping centre in Logan City and one of the largest single storey shopping centres in Australia. The Queensland Police Service operates a police beat shopfront in the centre. Logan City Council has a library at the far northern end of the Hyperdome and this is a separate, stand alone building. The Logan Hyperdome contains a food court with many outlets. Event Cinemas operate a cinema complex within the centre. Australia Post operates a post office in the centre. History Built after the closure and demolition of Wild Waters water park, the Hyperdome first opened in August 1989. Work at the site began in September 1988 and it was officially opened in July 1989. The centre featured 144 retailers. In 1990 Bob Ell sold it to Dreamworld developer John Longhurst. Longhurst later sold a 50% shareholding to the Queensland Investment Corporation who took full ownership in 2013. It received upgrades in May 1990, October 1997, December 1998, March 2005 and August 2015. The October 1997 upgrade was the largest upgrade when Bi-Lo Mega Frrresh (closed 30 June 2017) was moved from its original location where the now-defunct Crazy Clark's is located and Big W was added along with around 50 specialty stores and a 2-storey carpark. The 2005 upgrade included upgrading the Event Cinemas to 12 (previously 'Pacific 8') and installing a bowling alley (AMF Hyperbowl), another carpark and several restaurants and bars in the newly constructed piazza. The 2015 upgrade cost $17 million and revamped the southern end of the shopping centre, creating a new area called The Market Room. This area features several fresh food retailers and restaurants. The Logan Hyperdome Library opened in 1998 with a major refurbishment in 2014. In January 2019, Myer closed its doors due to lack of customers.
