AJ SadauskasWant to know why there's a sculpture of a bus in the middle of Parramatta Square? <br> <br> In 1981, the Parramatta Eels won the grand final in the predecessor to the National Rugby League.<br> <br> Many fans gathered at the team's home ground, Cumberland Oval (which was on the site of CommBank Stadium) and the celebrations got a bit rowdy.<br> <br> And by "got a bit rowdy", I mean they burnt the stadium down to the ground.<br> <br> Without a stadium, the following season the team held its meetings in a secondhand 1960s Leyland Worldmaster bus.<br> <br> But that's not the only piece of local history commemorated by this sculpture by Claire Healy &amp; Sean Cordeiro, titled "Place of the Eels".<br> <br> One side of the bus is inscribed with the words "Flying Pieman". It's a reference to a local baker named William Francis King, who used to sell pies to people boarding the ferry to Parra at Sydney's Circular Quay in the 1870s.<br> <br> After the ferry left, Mr King reputedly packed up his pie cart, then ran the 30-odd kilometres to Parramatta by foot. He would then set up his cart at Parramatta Wharf in time to sell more pies to passengers as they disembarked the ferry.<br> <br> The other side of the bus is inscribed with the name "Rosie Bint Broheen". In 1922, Rosie became the first Lebanese woman to buy land in Parramatta.<br> <br> The sculpture also includes some hidden messages, in reference to the Parramatta Industrial School for Girls, which was a notorious children's welfare institution that operated from 1887-1974. It was home to many members of the Stolen Generations.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/history?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Parramatta?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Parramatta</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/urbanism?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#urbanism</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/UrbanArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UrbanArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Australia?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Australia</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/StreetArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreetArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sculpture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sculpture</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/NRL?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NRL</a>
