Ballast Point Park, also known as Walama, is a 2.6-hectare urban park in Birchgrove, offering panoramic views of Sydney Harbour. Once an industrial site, it now features walking paths, cycling access, picnic areas, and public amenities like toilets and BBQ facilities. The park honors its history with installations such as Tank 101, symbolizing its maritime past, and Delicate Balance, reflecting the use of sandstone as ship ballast. The name "Walama," meaning 'to return,' acknowledges the area's transformation from industrial use to natural landscape.
