Westfields to develop Windsor – Frank Lowy Pushing the Limits

Rachael Goldsworthy has successfully sold the north end of George Street Commercial Precinct to an until now undisclosed buyer for AUD $45 million.
Frank Lowy, Chairman of Westfields, recently inspected the site, many believe looking to add to the Westfield portfolio.
“We always liked the Rouse Hill development and are looking to complete something similar in Windsor and increase the size of the bridge as part of the overall project.  The benefits for residents of Windsor and surrounding suburbs will be exceptional.” said Frank Lowry via phone this morning.
Others believe Ellen and Portia may have been unsuccessful in their attempt to purchase.  However, after their recent visit to Australia, they had to return to The States saying that after being spotted in George St, all the attention had pushed the ratings up and Ellen had to start filming her new show asap.
I’m sure all local people will be delighted by our potential new development site.
Enjoy your first day of April!
Rachael :)

Late October, early November, is one of my favourite times to take a walk along the streets of Windsor.  Not only are the Jacaranda trees in full blossom the streets are laden with a carpet of purple.

Take the time over the next few days to wander the streets of Windsor as it is a once year opportunity not to be missed.

Let me know your best vantage point for viewing and where your favourite trees grow.

Great day to take a bushwalk by the Colo River. There are some terrific places to explore, rock caves to discover, flora and fauna to have fun identifying.

Why not take some time out this weekend to enjoy what we have in our own backyard, discover what this part of the Hawkesbury has to offer.

If you take your camera send me your favourite photo.

Have fun exploring.

You are most welcome to take a self guided tour as the Church is open each day for visitors. Once you are there further information is available on a pamphlet offered on the porch.

They recommend your tour include a visit to the Schoolmaster’s House which contains photographs and memorabilia on the church’s interesting history.

Beautiful weather lately and lovely to take a drive in the country.

Enjoy the time you spend there.

Things to do in the Hawkesbury #50

Things to do in the Hawkesbury #50.  The weather has been fantastic and with the Olympics inspiring people to get you involved with sporting activities why not go for a paddle along the Hawkesbury River.

Kayak the Hawkesbury River

I love going for a paddle in my kayak.  And even if we don’t get to compete at Olympic Level simply looking at the shoreline from a different perspective there is so much to see like the local wildlife, sights and homes and most of all it is fun :).  It is not only a great workout, but when we take time out of our busy schedules we are rewarded with renewed energy for life and it helps us appreciate the simple things in life.

Let me know of your favourite places to paddle along the River.

Happy paddling,

Rachael :)

A lovely drive this time of year especially for the treat that you will be rewarded with upon your arrival.
