Description: Beneath the roar of jet engines and the hum of freight corridors lies a suburb shaped by tides, migrations and machines. This portrait of Mascot traces the ground from its Indigenous saltwater beginnings through market gardens, workers' cottages and wetland reclamation to the sprawling airport city it has become. With an eye for the layered histories hidden in streetscapes and shorelines, it examines how community endures beneath the flight paths and what the tarmac still remembers. A compact, vivid biography of one of Sydney's most overlooked and consequential places.
