Chatswood is at the extreme end of what a Sydney suburb can look like, and still be a suburb rather than a major city in its own right. In fact when overseas visitors have been confronted with views like that on the right, they have invariably assumed it was Sydney CBD that they were looking at.
It does have a certain vitality and colour, and lots of shopping opportunities, and I like to drop in now and again.What's happened to Chatswood, architecturally speaking, is much discussed. When developers pursue their rezonings and height limit changes in other suburbs, they promise, and their detractors warn against 'another Chatswood'!
