Placemaking NSW's David Glasson, chief custodian of Sydney's iconic Pyrmont Bridge is among the 949 Australians recognised in the King’s Birthday Honours list.

David received the Public Service Medal for his outstanding service to the operation, maintenance and conservation of the bridge, which is the oldest surviving electrically operated swing span bridge.

For nearly 40 years, David has devoted his career to caring for Pyrmont Bridge, from restoring its timber spans to mentoring generations of tradespeople. David’s legacy is built on craftsmanship, knowledge-sharing and an unwavering sense of pride in his work.

Through his dedication to training apprentices, supporting Indigenous youth, and inspiring others to “own what you do,” David has helped preserve not just a landmark, but the skills and passion needed to care for it into the future.

Thank you, David, for your incredible contribution to Darling Harbour and the wider community.

Who remembers Sega World at Darling Harbour? 🎮✨

Back in March 1997, this iconic indoor theme park opened its doors and quickly became a must-visit destination, dubbed “Australia’s Interactive Disneyland.”

With 7 rides and simulators, a buzzing food court, and more than 200 arcade games, Sega World was all about immersive fun. Guests journeyed through “Past,” “Present” and “Future” zones, connected by vibrant “Time Tunnel” corridors straight out of a dream.

After nearly four years of lights, games and memories, the park closed in November 2000, but for many, the nostalgia is still strong 💙
