Sydney’s houses from the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s may soon be a thing of the past if we’re not careful. Some are too quick to demolish already existing houses particularly the ‘fibro majestic’ houses in order to build new houses in favour of a more flexible large open plan style of living. As a result, our houses from the past are potentially at risk.
