island and to achieve environmentally sustainable forms of water, energy and waste management. Most people will arrive by public transport and will primarily get about the island by foot or bicycle.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   With its mix of uses and activities the island's revival will continue to contribute to the cultural life of the community. The adaptive re-use of buildings will provide an economically sustainable solution for their ongoing conservation.

The outcomes are summarised in Figures 26, 28, 31, 34 and 36.

Design Outcomes
This plan aims to retain the island's diversity, which is derived from its incremental development over a long period of time. In accordance with the conservation policies, the emphasis is on retaining and adapting existing buildings; however some buildings or parts of buildings may be demolished and new buildings and structures may be required to fulfill the primary objectives for the island. The scale, form, materials, finishes and interface with the public domain of new buildings must be sympathetic to the heritage values of the island and its buildings and fixtures, as well as assisting with the interpretation of heritage buildings or fixtures that have previously been removed. In the maritime precinct the areas identified as suitable for possible new structures tend to be located within predominantly industrial areas of the island. This industrial scale and form will need to be retained in the design of any purpose-built structures. The robustness and continual changes in use over the history of the island will need to be portrayed in the design of new buildings.
Potential design outcomes for the whole island are illustrated at Figure 26.

Design of the Public Domain
Public access will be through the sequence of spaces already provided by the pattern of existing development on the island- see Figure 27. They already present the ingredients for a memorable and distinctive public domain. Modifications of, or additions to the public domain need to reflect and respond to the established character and palette of materials of the island, its spaces and buildings.
Within these spaces, paths will be given definition only where necessary, to define areas where access is limited due to operational and safety requirements, or areas used for events and outdoor dining or other activities. The definition of the pathways within spaces should not detract from the scale and overall form and character of the spaces themselves.
New pathways will recognise new opportunities to experience the island, such as the cliff-top walk that reveals the granaries and connects a number of vantage points overlooking the operational areas of the southern apron, the docks, the major public spaces of the eastern apron, and across the water to the city. Access will also be provided to the vantage
