There could be some life size murals of local identities or locations on Post Office Lane wall or other huge empty walls round the place or on sides of buildings. They could be historical photos blown up to large proportions. Orange has a lot of history.

0 comment2LordAAalmost 3 years agoPost office lane area
Prime real estate area if that was developed properly it is the perfect place to have multitude of different eateries, weekend markets, weekend creative arts, etc, a little beautification at the back of the post office out towards lords place, Maintaining open air environment architecturally designed specifically for Oranges indecisive weather The current lane development there is sad poorly designed embarrassing extremely outdated for a “Future town”
0 comment2wwwalkeralmost 3 years agobusking spot or speaker's corner
Have a reliable busking spot where Council and shops are happy to have it. It could be a speaker's corner like in Hyde Park London. Music adds zest to a town. Orange is a very musical town. I busked there once and found it invigorating meeting people and making the town musical on the street. Live music on the street encouraged people I met to study music at the Conservatorium so it can increase the music skills in Orange and help grow the orchestra and local talent pool from which bands or groups can be formed or musicians play in local churches. Music is a wonderful way to meet people. I played Irish and Scottish folk music on violin when I was in Orange. Orange is a very Celtic town.

Carparking needs to be street level

Jtsharpalmost 3 years agoRemove ALL the parking, add the eating areas there but allow traffic to still flow through with "drop off" lanes for people 2 moving lanes.
Like some schools have "kiss and drop" lanes, allow this so that you can drop off people but NOT park, this would then mean that you would only need one lane for traffic each way. The additional space can then be used for outdoor seating. When thinking about outdoor seating please be practical about it... we are in Orange - I have no doubt that you are thinking seriously about how that can work. We have lovely days throughout the year (even in winter sometimes) so outdoor can be well used on the right days.

You should reopen the old theatre and restore it to its original form and we could get a whole heap of old theatre and candy bar things.
0 comment2simonwrightalmost 3 years agoIf Council is really serious about a food street, shut off to traffic after 5pm and w/ends and make a european style piazza with markets etc
1 comment3Caroline&Davidalmost 3 years agoOrange needs a place/places for people to sit/meet/eat that is off the highway. We need other attractions too besides food, wine and sport..
0 comment1Geminigail.almost 3 years agoSeriously. The biggest attraction in Orange is the wide streets. Leave them alone and concentrate on infrastructure (especially water).
Leave Lords Place (and all other streets) alone.
