- **Event Description**: An above ground walking tour following the path of the Tank Stream from its source at Hyde Park, through the CBD, to Circular Quay.About this EventSWAMP CITY WALKS Sydney is not a harbour city. It is a swamp city. Beneath the sandstone and the concrete, beneath the stormwater drains and the culverted creeks, beneath the parks and the playing fields and the car parks, there is water. There always has been.Swamp City Walks is a six-month program of public walks tracing the buried, managed, and silenced waterscapes of Sydney. Each walk takes a single site and asks what happened here — to waters, to the Country, to the people who depended on both — when the city decided that wetness was a problem to be solved.These are not heritage walks. They do not celebrate what was built. They attend to what was lost, what persists despite everything, and what the infrastructure of the city still carries in its body, if you know how to read it.TANK STREAMIn 1788, the colony chose its site because of a stream. The Tank Stream ran north from what is now Hyde Park to the harbour, and for forty years it was Sydney's only freshwater source. Within a generation it was an open sewer. By the 1850s it was bricked over. Today it runs in a concrete culvert beneath Pitt Street, unmapped on any public document, audible only to maintenance workers with a key.This walk follows the surface trace of a buried waterway from the approximate headwaters in Hyde Park to the outfall at Circular Quay. It reads the CBD as a water document: the slight depression in the street grade, the bend in the colonial street grid, the places where the founding logic of the city's relationship to its own water is still visible if you know where to look.We begin with the stream that made Sydney possible, and ask why the city buried the thing it was built on.MEETING POINT Hyde Park Corner Park/Elizabeth St, Sydney CBDEND POINT Circular QuayFORMAT Running on the 3rd Sunday of every month, each walk runs for approximately 3 hours, covering two to four kilometres on foot.ZINES Participants receive a printed zine developed for the site, distributed at the start of each walk.NUMBERS Limited to 25 participants per walk. Registration opens four weeks before each date.ENTRY Free to attend.WEATHER All weather. Wear shoes you are willing to get wet.
