Sydney Olympic Park

Aboriginal people have been associated with the Homebush Bay area for many thousands of years. When Europeans arrived in 1788, the Homebush Bay area formed part of the traditional lands of the Wanngal clan. The lands of the Wanngal clan extended along the southern shore of the Parramatta River between about Leichhardt and Auburn. The Wanngal clan would have had access rights to the resources of the Homebush Bay area, but would have routinely interacted with neighbouring clan groups.

Shortly after the British colonisation of Sydney several smallpox epidemics ravaged the local Aboriginal population, leaving many of the clans seriously depleted. By way of adaptation, members of neighbouring clan groups are known to have joined to ensure their survival. Aboriginal people were still using the Homebush Bay area in the early 1800s even after their lands were granted to Europeans. Several encounters and conflicts between Europeans and Aboriginal people are documented for the Homebush Bay area throughout the 1790s, and in the early 1800s Aboriginal people (perhaps of the Wanngal clan) were working for and supplying fish to Europeans in the area.Cameo, 2002: 46 No references have yet been located which describe Aboriginal people living in the Homebush Bay area for the period after the 1810s; however, this is the subject of ongoing research through the Aboriginal History & Connections Program, a long-term program aimed at documenting Aboriginal connections to the Homebush Bay area before and after the arrival of Europeans launched by the Sydney Olympic Park Authority in April 2002.

Today the Homebush Bay area is within the asserted traditional cultural boundary of the Darug language group, of which the Wanngal clan is said to have belonged. The descendants of Darug traditional owners of the Sydney area play a custodial role in the preservation of Aboriginal cultural heritage and are actively involved with archaeological and historical research in and around the Homebush Bay area. The area also falls within the administrative boundary of the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council which also plays a major role in the investigation and preservation of Aboriginal culture and heritage.

The Sydney Olympic Park locality was first known to Europeans as "The Flats", as described by Lieutenant Bradley in his charting of the river in 1788. The name "Liberty Plains" was also given to the locality but referred to the higher and drier lands along Parramatta Road and referred to the first group of settlers who were free rather than convict, who established farms there in 1793.Carney & Mider, 1996: 11 The first European settler was Thomas Laycock (1756?-1809), who was granted 40 hectares between Parramatta Road and Homebush Bay in October 1794. He named his farm, Home Bush and ran sheep and cattle there. Laycock was Quartermaster of the NSW Corps and also held other government positions. D'Arcy Wentworth (c.1762-1827) purchased the 318 hectare holding from the Laycock family in January 1808. With additional grants Wentworth's holdings at Homebush Bay totalled 372 hectares by 1810. Wentworth established a horse stud and a private racetrack adjoining Parramatta Road and was influential among the early government officials and free settlers. He died at Homebush on 7 July 1827.(ADB, Vol. II) The village and later suburb of Homebush, New South Wales was not part of the Home Bush Estate: the village was subdivided from Edward Powell's estate further south, and took its name from nearby Homebush railway station, which in turn was named after the Home Bush Estate to its north.

The Home Bush Estate was inherited by William Wentworth (1790–1872), who continued in his father's tradition of controversial public service. With his neighbour Gregory Blaxland, he was in the first exploration party to find a route through the Blue Mountains. He expanded and developed his father's bequest of properties, becoming one of the colony's richest men by his death in 1872. The property was let to numerous tenants throughout William's ownership, while he lived at Vaucluse House in Sydney. William, who was elected president of the Sydney Turf Club in 1832, gave permission for the existing racetrack to be upgraded for public race meetings. The racetrack included grandstands, stables and spelling paddocks which stretched over the Sydney Olympic Park site. The property was inherited by William Wentworth's son, Fitzwilliam.Painter & Waterhouse, 1992:15-22 The Wentworth Estate, together with adjoining areas to the south, was proclaimed the Borough of Rookwood on 8 December 1891.{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article219926480 |title=Government Gazette Proclamations and Legislation |newspaper=New South Wales Government Gazette |issue=782 |date=10 December 1891 |access-date=14 November 2017 |page=9683 |via=National Library of Australia}} The borough became a municipality in 1906, and was renamed the "Municipality of Lidcomb

" in 1913.{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article85972873 |title="Lidcombe" or Rockwood. |newspaper=The Cumberland Argus and Fruitgrowers' Advocate |volume=XXVI |issue=2038 |location=New South Wales |date=12 July 1913 |access-date=2 December 2017 |page=12 |via=National Library of Australia}} Addresses in the area were subsequently listed under the suburb of Lidcombe and the area was sometimes referred to as "North Lidcombe" Lidcombe merged into the Municipality of Auburn in 1948.

In 1907 367 hectares, most of the Wentworth estate, was resumed for the building of the State Abattoirs. Specifications for the general arrangement and layout of the site and drawings of the gatehouse, administration buildings, mutton, pork, beef and veal houses were completed in 1909 by the Department of Public Works under Government Architect Walter Liberty Vernon and construction completed in 1913. The gardens were also designed in 1913 by Joseph Maiden, Director of the Sydney Botanic Gardens, including the historic formal avenue of trees that is located on the eastern boundary of the Overflow. Consisting of Brush Box (Lophostemon confertus) and Spotted Gum (Eucalyptus maculata) this row of trees is referred to as "the allee".OCA Tender documents, 2001 The cauldron is located in the Overflow, a park just west of the former main abattoir administration precinct and allee, on land which formed a car park for the abattoir.

In 1910, part of the land initially resumed for the State Abattoir was used to build the State Brickworks.[https://dictionaryofsydney.org/organisation/state_brickworks Dictionary of Sydney - State Brickworks] Thereafter, the abattoir and the brickworks became the two largest establishments in North Lidcombe.

By 1923 the State Abattoir employed 1,600 people and had a killing capacity of 25,000 animals a week, making it one of the largest abattoirs in Australia. The abattoirs continued to expand during World War II and into the 1950s with works provided for the treatment of offal, refrigeration, the preparation of tallow, fertilizers, meat for export and canning of pet foods (Godden & Associates 1989: 21ff). By the 1970s the facilities required rebuilding and a decision was taken not to upgrade but to redevelop surplus land for industrial use. The State Abattoir officially closed on 10 June 1988 and the Homebush Abattoir Corporation wound up on 30 June 1992.Fox & Associates 1986: 48-50 Throughout the twentieth century, much of the current land of the site was reclaimed from the river and wetlands by landfill.[http://www.sydneyolympicpark.com.au/education_and_learning/history/site_remediation Sydney Olympic Park Official Site: Education & Learning] {{Webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060304092445/http://www.sydneyolympicpark.com.au/education_and_learning/history/site_remediation |date=4 March 2006 }}

In the mid-1980s, an area bounded by Australia Avenue and what are now Herb Elliott Avenue and Sarah Durack Avenue was promoted as a 'technology park' called the Australia Centre. However, apart from a few relatively electronic businesses like AWA Microelectronics, BASF, Philips and Sanyo, the idea did not catch on and the technology park is now in South Eveleigh. In any event, a decade later the entire area became the main cluster venue for the 2000 Summer Olympics.

As part of the regeneration scheme for the area, North Lidcombe was renamed Homebush Bay in 1989, named after the bay to its north and east. After 1992 the abattoir precinct was occupied by a number of organisations that ultimately became the Sydney Olympic Park Authority (SOPA). Sydney won the right to host the Olympic Games on 23 September 1993, after being selected over Beijing, Berlin, Istanbul and Manchester at the 101st IOC Session in Monte Carlo, Monaco.

The industrial activities in the area resulted in a highly contaminated site with little natural ecology and a fragmented stream corridor. Sixty-five percent of the soils were required to be excavated and contained on-site. The site did have some positive attributes that PWP Landscape Architecture enhanced in the design: 15 miles of continuous waterfront; various historic buildings and landscapes; an almost unspoiled 124-acre aboriginal forest; major areas of mangrove swamp; bird sanctuaries; and surviving endangered species like Golden orb spiders and the Green and golden bell frogs that resided in a 70-acre historic limestone quarry, the Brick Pit.{{Cite web|url=http://www.pwpla.com/projects/millennium-parklands/%26details|title=Sydney Olympic Park (Millennium Parklands|website=PWP Landscape Architecture|access-date=19 December 2014|archive-date=19 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211219052647/http://www.pwpla.com/projects/millennium-parklands/%26details|url-status=dead}}

With the successful completion of the 2000 Olympics, Sydney Olympic Park has undergone a significant amount of development work to support its conversion to a multipurpose facility with a number of businesses re-locating to the area. Commercial developments now sit alongside sporting facilities with tenants in office buildings such as Commonwealth Bank from September 2007. A five-star Pullman hotel and a two-star Formule 1 hotel were completed in mid-2008.

The parklands have undergone redevelopment with Blaxland Riverside Park (formerly Blaxland Common) being transformed into an urban park along Parramatta River. The Park opened on 3 March 2007. In addition the Wentworth Common area was upgraded with significant adventure playground facilities for children aged 8–13 years.

The former Auburn Council sought public comment on a proposal to rename the Homebush Bay area, to remove confusion with its namesake suburb Homebush. The area encompassing Sydney Olympic Park, which made up most of the suburb of Homebush Bay, was given autonomy as a suburb, the waterfront residential area was renamed Wentworth Point and the Carter Street industrial precinct was absorbed by the neighbouring suburb of Lidcombe.[http://www.auburn.nsw.gov.au/page.aspx?id=3946 New Names for Auburn Suburbs] {{Webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091013120011/http://www.auburn.nsw.gov.au/page.aspx?id=3946 |date=13 October 2009 }}{{NSW GNR|id=MnIOlMUlMa|title=Auburn}}

Prior to the 2010s, Sydney Olympic Park was largely uninhabited. Together with Rookwood and Chullora to the south, it formed part of a string of uninhabited suburbs between Inner West Sydney and Greater Western Sydney. However, the suburb has seen substantial residential development in the 2010s. In the 2011 census, its population was only 65 people,ABS, [https://quickstats.censusdata.abs.gov.au/census_services/getproduct/census/2011/quickstat/SSC12193 2011 - QuickStats - Sydney Olympic Park (state suburb)] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211219054153/https://quickstats.censusdata.abs.gov.au/census_services/getproduct/census/2011/quickstat/SSC12193 |date=19 December 2021 }} but by the 2016 census five years later, this had grown dramatically to 1736. [https://quickstats.censusdata.abs.gov.au/census_services/getproduct/census/2016/quickstat/SSC13716 2016 - QuickStats - Sydney Olympic Park (state suburb)] By 2021 this number had grown again to 4848.[https://abs.gov.au/census/find-census-data/quickstats/2021/SAL13731 ABS 2021 Census All Persons QuickStats]

On 17 July 2023, the suburb boundary was amended with some area surrounding Wentworth Point becoming part of the latter.

More than 5000 events are held at Sydney Olympic Park each year, including the Sydney Royal Easter Show, Supanova Pop Culture Expo, Rugby Union, National Rugby League, Australian Football League and Australian Rugby League games at Stadium Australia. The Sydney International is held each year at the Sydney Olympic Park Tennis Centre, and the park also hosts athletics and swimming events, using some venues for concerts during the year, and hosts boxing. It hosts the Big Day Out music festival and has been the venue for free, open air performances as part of the Sydney Festival such as Movies in the Overflow and Music by Moonlight.

The Newington Armory has in the past been the venue for the now-defunct "Great Escape" and "Acoustica at the Armory" music festivals, both of which were held over the Easter long weekend. Some venues function have changed from the original uses in the 2000 Olympics, such as the baseball stadium which has become the Sydney Showground; the former Sydney Superdome is now known as Allphones Arena and the Olympic Stadium has been renamed a number of times, currently Accor Stadium. The latter two venues are now very successful in their own right, with the stadium serving as the venue for 49 major sporting events in 2007 and the Arena being the world's second-highest grossing venue of its type in the world in 2005 - behind only New York City's Madison Square Garden.

File:1839 - Olympic Cauldron at Sydney Olympic Park - Cauldron, now a fountain in the Overflow, Sydney Olympic Park (5061184b1).jpgThe suburb is home to a significant arts and cultural program including regular events, the largest single precinct public art collection in Australia, the Armoury Gallery which is the largest single room permanent art exhibition space in the Southern Hemisphere, a new theatre, an artist studio facility at Newington Armoury and a BMX track. The suburb is fully dedicated to environmentally and socially sustainable practices and has committed to 'Master Plan 2030': an opportunity to establish a best practice example of sustainable urban development for the next 20 years of the Park's growth.

The Master Plan 2030 vision is that the Park will, by 2030, be home to a daily population of 50,000 residents, students and workers, in addition to 10 million visitors per year.

In the 2021 Census, there were 4,848 people in Sydney Olympic Park, an increase of 179% from its population of 1,736 at the 2016 Census, and 7,358% in the decade since the 2011 Census, when the suburb had only 65 residents.

In 2021, 28.4% of people were born in Australia. The next most common countries of birth were China 18.1% and South Korea 10.3%. The most common reported ancestries were Chinese 28.8%, Korean 12.6%, English 11.1%, Australian 7.2% and Indian 5.2%. 26.6% of people spoke only English at home. Other languages spoken at home included Mandarin 19.6% and Korean 12.1%. The most common response for religion was No Religion at 43.0%.

Sydney Olympic Park was part of Auburn Council at the time of its creation. When Auburn Council was abolished, it was absorbed by the City of Parramatta.

However, in practice, the Sydney Olympic Park Authority, the state government body which manages Sydney Olympic Park, has considerable autonomy and in many matters its powers are similar to that of a local government.

Sydney Olympic Park Authority is the successor of the Homebush Bay Development Corporation, which was originally established to manage the large-scale urban renewal project for the Homebush Bay area after industry moved out. After the site was nominated for the 2000 Olympics bid, in 1995 the Homebush Bay Development Corporation became the Olympic Co-ordination Authority. After the games, in 2001, it became the Sydney Olympic Park Authority. The Authority also remains a significant land owner in the area, having inherited land that was already owned by the state government or acquired for the purpose of the Olympics.
