The Brick Pit Reserve in Frenchs Forest has recently transformed from an old quarry into a much-loved community park. The design integrates a looped trail, seating, and open spaces while celebrating its heritage. By addressing accessibility, stormwater, and biodiversity, the project balances conservation with recreation, creating an inclusive and sustainable community asset.
