Image galleries

Newcastle City Council maintains a number of image libraries and photo galleries that capture the history of our city, community events and Council works.

Waste support gallery After experiencing the worst storm in thirty years, the big clean up started with Sydney councils and major waste contractors heeding the call for assistance. Trucks and crews from waste contractors Cleanaway and JR Richards, and Manly, Fairfield, Marrickville, Sutherland and Waverley Councils headed for the city to help.

Pasha Bulker gallery While waiting in the open ocean outside the harbour to load coal the Pasha Bulker ran aground during a major storm on 8 June 2007 on Nobbys Beach. It was refloated and moved to a safe location offshore on 2 July 2007 before being towed to Japan for major repairs on 26 July 2007.

Pasha sculpture The artwork grounded will be officially unveiled on Friday 5 June to mark the anniversary of the groudning of the bulk carrier Pasha Bulker on 8 June 2007.

Nobbys Seawall June 09 A large sand wall was built along the shoreline to protect the work area in front of the existing seawall. The sandwall held up despite some heavy rain during May. The wall was continously reinforced with sand filled bags and concrete blocks to reduce the wave impact. When the weather improved, the first new concrete was poured. The concrete blocks were used to brace the formwork for the new concrete.

Nobbys Seawall gallery 2 Work has started at Nobbys Beach to repair a section of the concrete seawall and landscape the grass embarkment and promenade. A section of the promenade and the carpark adjacent to the pavilion kiosk will be closed during the project.
