Save Wharf Shed 1 from demolition
It's the last remaining wharf shed in the Port's Inner Harbor. Too much of the Port's character and maritime history has been eroded away. Adaptive re-use of the wharf shed is a win for the Port, for tourism and is economically viable too.
Read about the history of this shed in the September 2016 Missive. (Thanks to Michael Weir for his research).

Petition to protest against the demolition of Wharf Shed 1
Our PoANT Facebook page has many posts and photographs about adaptive re-use of wharf sheds in other places. It also provides an opportunity for community members to share their thoughts and opinions about our heritage. The Facebook page is the place to go to find out what is happening currently in and around The Port.

Port of Adelaide National Trust
The Old Sailing Club
Our community has nominated the Old Sailing Club (Gallery Yampu) and its Jenkins Street surrounds for listing in the State Heritage Register. We believe we have a strong case!
The decision about provisional listing as State Heritage will be made at the public 17th August 2023 meeting of the Heritage Council of South Australia. The site ownership, however, will be transferred from State Government (Renewal SA) to Cedar
Woods (The Developer) before that date. The Port of Adelaide National Trust will be looking closely at that deed and interested to see if it's for the same amount that the Shed 26 site was transferred for - the grand total of $2.00!
The SA Government has secured a written agreement from Cedar Woods to abide by the heritage process and not demolish the Old Port Adelaide Sailing Club until a decision from the Heritage Council is delivered. We believe it's basically a gentlemen's agreement, that may not be legally enforceable. That is why, from 1 July 2023, a community neighbourhood watch, aka Cedar Hoods Watch, will be deployed to ensure that this agreement is not reneged upon.
Community help is needed for this.
Other campaign activities are coming so stay tuned, bookmark this page, and follow PoANT on Facebook.
Now a public document, here is a link to the excellent nomination for the Old Port Adelaide Sailing Club
