    Hi folks,

    Just caught a cursory glance at this news piece on industrial area Camellia, about 2KM east of Parramatta CBD:

    http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/industria...t-to-become-new-neighbourhood-20150718-gicvdq

    Wishing I hadn't sold my north Granville unit earlier in the year, now!
    Still, neighbouring Rosehill has some great house and apartment stock already, and some actually pretty quite streets nestled in an otherwise busy and noisy grid. Could Rosehill see good gains in light of the light-rail and general cleanup and development of neighbouring industrial areas?

    It will always have a stigma amongst people that know the history. Once the cleanup is done, plenty of unknowing buyers will still buy.

    One thing that might in time help is the extension of the line to Epping or replacement with light rail.

    I rented at Telopea from '96 to '02. Line extensions were being talked about then but never eventuated.

    Would be good to see the end of those smelly smoke stcks. I hope they keep some of the industrial aspect though. It can be attractive when it doesn't smell, make a noise or affect health.

    The toxic legacy of Rhodes hasn't stopped that area from booming. Just watch how they frame the redevelopment of Camelia... Words like 'peninsula, waterfront'

    I m loving the parramatta development.

    Council have been pumping money in to parramatta over last 10 year.

    Fringe suburbs of parramatta is been ticking along nicely, be it greystanes, westmead, nortmead,ermington, cameila, Rose hill and Harris park.

    Actually Breakfast Point is on the site of the old Australian Gas and Light (AGL) plant at Mortlake which is in Canada Bay Council. It was there from the early 1900s until the late 1990s. Large chunks of Upper Parramatta River have lost its industrial heritage. I grew up on the muddy bays around there!!

    Yeah I know, I was about to buy one in Breakfast Point (by Rose developer) but it was already expsive and most of the advice in the SS forum were against OTP apartment in general.

    I'll look around in Meadowbank next week.

    Yeah, that's why some people think that it is always a good buy to invest in Parramatta area.
    isn't that right @WinDyz. :eek:

    But not OTP property otherwise @sash might come and laugh at me so hard ....

    Parramatta could be at risk of oversupply in the next 24 months.

    But it is these areas around parramatta - well connected and convenient commuting to both parramatta and Sydney's CBD's, that could grow well in the next 10 years (I.e. next Sydney cycle).
