FEARS FOR THE FEMALE FACTORY

Program Page: The Sydneyist

Duration: 30min

Sydney is conspicuously bad at commemorating women’s history. Willow Grove, a much loved female-built-and-run Italianate villa, was recently demolished. Now Australia’s only standing Female Factory, in Parramatta, is threatened by rezoning for 30-storey towers. Tonight on The Sydneyist Elizabeth Farrelly speaks with Friends of the Female Factory president, Gay Hendricksen and urban curator Ann Proudfoot about this World heritage building.
