Coal Loader（煤炭装卸港口）是悉尼港（Sydney Harbour）内一处重要的文化景观。它建于世纪初，原本是用来装卸煤炭以进行海外运输的。20年前，人们着手将这个废弃的滨水工业区改造成一个公共空间。在景观设计事务所CLOUSTON Associates于1999年提出的总体规划的指导下，如今的Coal Loader已经变成了一个充满活力的社区公园。

The Coal Loader is a significant cultural landscape on Sydney Harbour. It was built around the turn of the century to load coal for overseas shipping. 20 years ago, a rare opportunity arose to revitalise the abandoned industrial waterfront into a public space. Guided by the CLOUSTON Associates 1999 masterplan, the Coal Loader has now transformed into a vibrant community park.

Coal Loader是澳大利亚境内最大的绿色屋顶公园之一。它可以通过自身来收集雨水和太阳能等必需的资源，从而真正实现自给自足。
It is one of Australia’s largest green roof parks. The Coal Loader is self-sustaining, harvesting all its own rainwater and running off solar power.
