Pyrmont-Ultimo is one of the fastest growing suburbs in Sydney. Over the past century it has demonstrated changes as a result of urban decay and renewal, urban consolidation and most recently spatial exclusion. These urban dynamics are dominant in Pyrmont Ultimo and have contributed to the changing morphology of that area.…
During last week’s research, three testable outcomes were identified: the value will increase if the home is closer to the city, the value will decrease if the home is closer to the city, or there is no direct correlation. Team B hypothesizes that if a property is closer to the city, the value will be higher. It has been determined that the median, mean, minimum, and maximum values should be assessed and examined to determine if this hypothesis is accurate. Team B will be using the mean home prices in group one and two to determine if there is a significant difference in home prices for homes less than 15 miles from the city compared to those equal to or greater than 15 miles from the center of the city. Based on the possible testable outcomes, Team B will use the Null Hypothesis and Alternate hypothesis with the mean prices in group one denoted as µH1 and mean home prices in group two denoted as µH2.…
Sydney is a world city that currently has urban dynamics operating in it. Sydney is located on the coast in the South-East quadrant of Australia. Urban Decay and Renewal is clearly evident in Pyrmont – Ultimo, a suburb located with in a kilometre from the CBD.

Life in Australia at the turn of the century was certainly different from the Australia of today. People lived a much simpler (but necessarily easier) life and from this, we have developed and advanced. The main discussion points which will make up the content of this essay are gender roles and how it affected both men and women; fashion and how it affected status and profession; and transport & technology and how it impacted daily lives.…
Expository texts are designed to present information that encourages us to accept a particular point of view. Normally this information is often fresh and exhilarating, challenging us to analyze aspects of the world in different ways. Advance Australia Where…..? By Hugh Mackay is an expository text which significantly analyses the idea of the renovations that Australia is currently undergoing through the younger generation. An abundant of ideas presented has led me to reject many of his views He presents these ideas throughout the book and in the chapter “Project Australia”. This is achieved through the effective use of techniques of construction such as the use of authority figure, selection of detail and language.…
Australia is a highly urbanised country where over 85% of the population live in cities and large towns. These urban centres are subject to urban growth and decline, which are largely due to a number of socioeconomic factors. One of these centres, the Pyrmont-Ultimo area in Sydney, had experienced such changes over the last century.…
Australia has changed since the days of the early settlers who farmed and cultivated this great brown land, most of which is largely desert and thus, most of Australia’s growing population now reside in the urban cities that fringe the coastline.…
Australia, a country of British colonisation, is, in the modern day, considered a multicultural land which has been heavily influenced by immigrants. Following the two decades post-World War II, Australia’s economy and British orientated culture varied greatly due to many waves of migrations, especially that of Italians, who ventured for a better life and new opportunities, which worked in favour for Australia. Lifestyle skills, values and knowledge, especially regarding agriculture, that the citizens of mainly southern, Italy possessed, were of importance and worth to the Australian Government after World War II in the 1900s as it would assist with expansion and improvement plans whilst remaining within policies and beliefs. It is seen through…
Detailed information about the geographic distribution of the Indigenous population for 2011 is not yet available, but figures from the 2006 Census indicated that the majority of Indigenous people lived in cities and towns [26]. Slightly more than one-half of the Indigenous population lived in areas classified as 'major cities ' or 'inner regional ' areas, compared with almost nine-tenths of the non-Indigenous population. (As well as these two classifications of 'remoteness ' in terms of access to goods and services and opportunities for social interaction, the Australian Standard Geographical Classification (ASGC) has four other categories: 'outer regional ', 'remote ', 'very remote ', and 'migratory ' [27].) Almost one-quarter of Indigenous people lived in areas classified as 'remote ' or 'very remote ' in relation to having 'very little access to goods, services and opportunities for social interaction ' ([28], p.3). Less than 2% of non-Indigenous people lived in 'remote ' or 'very remote ' areas [26].…
The journey of the crazy chicken began on the roadside of Mexico’s Pacific Coast in a small town of Guasave in 1975 by a man named Juan Francisco Ochoa and now El Pollo Loco has its headquarters in Costa Mesa, CA. The mesmerizing aroma of the fresh chicken cooking on the open grill is how El Pollo Loco became the local’s favorite spot in Guasave. Their chicken stand featured an authentic family recipe for their fresh chicken marinated in special herbs, spices, garlic and fruit juices and finished off with a perfection of fire-grilled chicken.…
