Parramatta : Centenary Square (Bicentennial Square)

Centenary Square. Originally a shopping and market area, from 1888 (the colony's centenary) it was formally named 'Centenary Avenue'; pedestrianised and renamed 'Bicentennial Square' in 1988.

On 25 Sep 2014 it was changed and renamed once again, this time to 'Centenary Square'.

Parramatta, Sydney, NSW, Australia

The Wishing Pool, dedicated to Dr James Kearney. Paid for by by E A Box (a close friend of Dr Kearney), erected August 1935 to help raise funds for Parramatta District Hospital.

Originally located near the Centennial Fountain (Centenary Square), it was partly relocated (only the plaque is original) in Mar 1975 when the adjacent road was closed.
