The City of Parramatta recognises the contribution and lasting legacy of Lang Walker AO.
Mr Walker co-founded a small firm with his father six decades ago which went on to become Walker Corporation. As head of Walker Corporation, he helped develop places where others only saw challenges, including Broadway Shopping Centre, Woolloomooloo Wharf, King Street Wharf and the $3 billion Parramatta Square development which transformed Parramatta CBD.
City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Pierre Esber said:
“Lang Walker understood the potential of Parramatta to be a major global city before most others.
“Parramatta Square is one of his many legacies to Parramatta and Western Sydney. This world-class civic and commercial precinct is now home to more than 24,000 workers and is a magnet for government and industry leaders to move their Sydney offices to Parramatta.
“I used to call him ‘Mr Nike’, because he had a way to ‘Just Do It’. That ability has left a lasting imprint on our City’s skyline.
“Our sincere condolences go to his wife Sue and his wider family.”
