The new Sisters of Charity Heritage Centre and Archives , built by Belmadar and designed by architects Young + Metcalf, has been officially opened by the Archbishop of Sydney Anthony Fisher. Through extensive alterations and additions Belmadar re-purposed an existing convent in Potts Point into a modern and welcoming three-storey building.
In addition to a centrepiece museum showcasing the Sisters’ work since arriving from Ireland in 1838, the centre features a relic repository, boardroom and staff offices, and is linked to the adjoining St Vincent's College school via a glazed walkway.
Belmadar is honoured to enable the Sisters of Charity to showcase their significant history and community work via this brand-new purpose-built centre, which looks set to become a valuable community resource.
