An expanded Powerhouse Museum, including Australia’s largest planetarium, will form the centrepiece of a new arts and cultural precinct on the banks of the Parramatta River in Western Sydney.
As part of the $645 million plan to move the Powerhouse from its current inner-city site, the existing Riverside Theatres complex in Parramatta will also be redeveloped, incorporating new cafes, bars and public spaces.
