Waterloo is on the cusp of becoming dismantled and redeveloped, with generations of history in the area finding itself at a crossroads. “I had similar origins growing up in a social housing area. As a photographer now living nearby in Redfern, I felt the stories in Waterloo, one of Sydney’s last social housing communities left, should be told”.

Greetings from Waterloo is a photographic record for those who call Waterloo home and those who will see their community irreversibly change.
