The Bay Street Initiative (BSI) is set to revolutionise Double Bay, aiming to boost the local economy, enhance the living experience for residents, and establish the area as Sydney's premier hospitality and entertainment district.
The BSI is a community- driven organisation committed to revitalizing Double Bay through a series of innovative initiatives and vibrant events. It was started by locals with a heart for the area and has had a unique capacity to act in the best interest of the precinct through its close connection to local businesses and residents. By fostering economic growth and community engagement, the BSI aims to celebrate the unique character of Double Bay, making it a dynamic and inclusive district.
As the BSI strives toward such events and schemes as a community long lunch, evening markets, musical concerts (etc) they are enthusiastic and optimistic about the success of the initiative and the long term positive effects it will have on the Eastern Suburbs community.
Central to the BSI’s missio n is the stimulation of the local economy. By organising events which drive traffic to local operators and retailers, the BSI directly supports local businesses.
The BSI is also focused on en hancing the living experience for Double Bay residents. Community improvement projects such as a revamp of the evening lighting in the area, and encouraging casual musical performances contribute to creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. These initiatives are designed to foster a sense of community and make Double Bay a more attractive place to live, work, and visit.
THE BAY STREET INITIATIVE (BSI)
With its strategic initiatives, th e BSI aims to establish Double Bay as Sydney's premier hospitality and entertainment district. The BSI’s vision includes transforming the area into a vibrant precinct known for its exceptional dining, entertainment, and cultural experiences.
The recent BSI Launch Party, held on the rooftop of Margaret Restaurant, marked a significant milestone in the initiative’s journey. The event brought together business owners, politicians, and local
celebrities, who gathered to enjoy drinks and food while listening to speeches from key BSI members, including journalist Melissa Hoyer and celebrity chef Neil Perry. The launch party underscored the community’s enthusiasm and support for the BSI’s vision and highlighted the potential for a transformed Double Bay precinct.
As the BSI continues to roll out its initiatives, the organisation remains committed to creating a thriving district that
benefits both the local economy and the community. The BSI’s efforts to enhance the living experience and establish Double Bay as a premier destination are poised to bring long-term benefits to the Woollahra LGA and greater Sydney.
