Locals say the old shops had “all the charm of an amenities block”, but the new Cleveland Street shops seem more Rome than Redfern.
Redfern shopping centre, or Surry Hills Village as it is now called, was sometimes called the “murder mall”.
The new village is more Rome than Redfern. A grand vaulted ceiling welcomes patrons arriving via Cleveland Street, the boundary between Redfern and Surry Hills. The community was concerned the development would result in gentrification rather than renewal, he said, as Redfern Coles had been a focal point for the community.In contrast, the new 11,520-square-metre site includes features that have in the past won SJB and Haddow a range of top industry awards.
To create a series of liveable villages clustered around a central garden, Surry Hills Village’s architects used different coloured bricks and heights. Landscape architect Sacha Coles, who also worked on the project as the design director of Aspect Studios, sees the project as stitching together a diverse community, building on its working-class history and cementing the Coles’ role as a meeting point.
Dogs of varying pedigrees are tied up near landscaped gardens in the supermarket’s courtyard. Tradies and locals are sitting on the landscaped steps and seats in Wunderlich Lane .
