 Afternoons in the Park
All the Park spaces recently laid out have been planned in a style of beauty in harmony with what previously existed; a beauty, I think, unapproachable by the many gardens of Paris, or the Prado of Madrid, the Corso of Rome, the Strado di Toledo of Naples, the Glacis of Vienna.
Austin is sufficiently severe upon the ladies, especially those whose afternoons in the Park have some correspondence with their "afternoon of life." I think that the elderly men who affect youthful airs are every whit as numerous and as open to sarcasm.
Princess Victoria was born and bred here, and at five o'clock one morning was aroused from her slumbers, to come down with dishevelled hair to hear from great nobles that she was now the Queen of the broad empire on which the morning and the evening star ever shines.

 Pinus radiata and feral bureaucrats - more - 1 July 2003.
This is in spite of a previous undertaking by bureaucrat Maria Rizutto (since removed from Manningham council) that all the pines could be removed and the unanimous support of all neighbors and others in the local area.
Allowing the Pine Trees to grow and continue to destroy the local environment is also against the "Significant Landscape Overlay", affecting most Park Orchards properties that supposedly is there to protect and enhance the local environment and character.
Pines provide refuge for invasive birds to attack natives, the result being that a sizeable chunk of Park Orchards is infested with Minor Birds and Pigeons and not much else.
