MacQuarie University
Macquarie University is one of the largest
universities in Australia. This year, in 2004, it
celebrates its 40th anniversary.
The university is located at the North Ryde
Greenbelt, Sydney, where the New South Wales
government sets aside 135 hectares for the
institution. In 1964, Macquarie area was a rural
retreat on the city fringe, but today the campus
and its surroundings have evolved beyond
recognition. The North Ryde District has grown
into a district of intensive occupation anchored by
a vibrant and growing university.
 Blessed with a fortunate location and room to
breathe, Macquarie can be proud of that careful
planning that retains and enrich the university’s
most attractive natural features. A pleasing
balance between buildings and plating is evident
across the campus. This emphasis on the
importance of landscape has created images of
Macquarie as a place that members of the
university are most likely to pleasurably recollect.
One of the highlights of the landscape is the Mars
Creek zone. It comprises landscaped creek sides
and valley floor, a grass amphitheatre, and
artificial lake surrounded by rocks and pebbles,
native plants and eucalypts.
