During this time large quantities of bluestone was extracted from the site, The site was then purchased by the City of Sunshine which subsequently turned it into a tip. In the 1970’s and 1980’s, this disused quarry then became one of the main waste disposal sites for metropolitan Melbourne.Sunshine Energy Park is an ambitious, once-in-a-generation project to transform a 74-hectare closed landfill and former quarry in Albion located in Melbourne’s west into a landmark public space. Led by the City of Brimbank, the vision is for Sunshine Energy Park to become the ‘Central Park’ of the west, a catalyst for environmental innovation, inclusive wellbeing, economic opportunity, sports excellence and Caring for Country.Case Studies Series 2025 Sunshine Energy Park – Creating a shared vision and seeding partnerships for a ‘Central Park of Melbourne’s West’ Brimbank City Councilsunshine tip, hulett street, albion, sunshine energy park, sunshine landfill -
