    This Sydney skyscraper drew crowds for its amazing views. There was one big problem inside (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Double the height of any other block and the first skyscraper to break the city’s height limit, the AMP building at 33 Alfred Street landed among the old shopfronts and Victorian terraces nearby like a supersized alien. Because the building was the tallest office tower in Sydney in 1962, at 117 metres, its rooftop terrace in Circular Quay drew tourists and school groups who oohed and aahed at the marvel from as far as the Kurnell sandhills. The views looking out from the inside, though, were a b

    Think you brush your teeth well? Chances are, you’re doing it wrong (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Brushing your teeth is boring, a periodontist confessed before he retired after nearly 60 years of showing patients like me how to do it to avoid gum disease that can affect overall health. His parting message – and he wouldn’t let me use his name – was telling me about research that proved what he had discovered in a lifetime in the profession.

    Read excerpt

    Dressed for spring in yellow and pink, Chizuru Sammut stopped to listen to the birds in Sydney’s Lane Cove National Park on Sunday morning. She paused to smell some crushed myrtle leaves, which research shows boost immunity and reduce stress. “Nature is amazing,” Sammut, 59, said. It was her dying wish to experience forest bathing, shinrin-yoku, a Japanese practice she remembered from her childhood in Japan before moving to Australia. Now in a wheelchair, Sammut was diagnosed with bowel cancer f

    How Donna Seidler finished her late husband’s dream of restoring an Australian icon (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When grief strikes, sometimes the only thing to do is whack weeds and feel the fire of a chainsaw. Donna Seidler turned to the garden first when she unexpectedly became the custodian of the 72-year-old modernist Julian Rose House in Wahroonga designed by Australia’s most renowned modern architect, Harry Seidler. Her husband Brian died in March 2025 after a short illness, before he had finished his restoration of the adventurous cantilevered home – elevated 3.3 metres – that had been designed by

    The tiny window problem creating two classes of home owners (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    It is called the tiny window problem, and it is a pane in the glass. The spread of sash windows in high-rise apartment blocks across Sydney and other capital cities is limiting ventilation and threatening health and wellbeing, says Estelle Grech, an urban planner and director of planning, fairness and equity with the Committee for Sydney.
