Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Sunbury Streetscape & Water FountainPrint Page 
Built in 1983, Sunbury’s iconic water fountain situated at the corner of O’Shanassy St and Brook St, was almost demolished to make way for a water park. However, after 589 people signed a petition against the move, the Hume Council opted for an upgrade instead. As well as giving the fountain a cosmetic overhaul, the water feature now includes a dazzling colour display to match the twinkling fairy lights of O’Shannasy Street.
This Is Sunbury, 28 April 2018.
