The Sydney Opera House was built in Sydney because a lot of tourists visit Sydney so it is a great location to build something like that.At the time that it was suggested there should be some sort of performing arts centre in Sydney the venues that were available to accept quality overseas artists were pretty sad old barns & sheds. There was not one venue with high quality presentation and descent technical standards to be able to house international stars. Sydney administrators and State government officials seemed to agree that it was time to create such a venue. But... where to locate it? Would you believe at the time this was happening the site on Bennelong Point where the Opera House now stands was occupied by an enormous electric tram barn. It was here that many Sydney trams rested at night. With a beautiful harbour like Sydney's a tram barn was not in the running to win any beauty prizes. To summarise ....'need' was the reason the Opera House was built in Sydney. Thank goodness it happened! David Hensler (Retired Theatre Manager at the Sydney Opera House - 15 years)
