56 Part 3. Justifi cation for inscription 3.48 Location and setting, spirit and meaning The Sydney Opera House is surrounded on three sides by a vibrant, busy harbour, which provides a natural safeguard from development of its waterscape setting. Immediately behind the Sydney Opera House are the Royal Botanic Gardens, the city’s ‘green lung’ and an important backdrop to the site when viewed from the water. These aspects of the location are discussed in Part 4. The history and associations of the harbour setting and the exceptional architectural quality of the podium and shells form a pivotal sculptural role in Sydney Harbour. As stated above, the integrity and authenticity of this setting will be protected by the buffer zone and by national protective legislation that is effective both within and beyond the buffer zone. These protective measures are detailed in Part 5. The Conservation Plan (SOH) contains policies to ensure the conservation of the setting and spirit. These policies protect the views and vistas, the open and uncluttered setting and the forecourt pedestrian and vehicle paths. Figure 3.48 The buffer zone protects the setting of the Sydney Opera House and ensures that it retains its supremacy as the focal point of the city from key vantage points. Information sources Extensive information sources are available on the construction and changes to the property. International and local expertise on the history and signifi cance of the building is referenced throughout the nomination and detailed in Part 7. The ability to engage the building’s creator has provided unique opportunities to authenticate the outstanding universal values of the place and to integrate this vision into the management framework for the building. Part 2.A provides information on the adaptations to the property such as the Drama Theatre, the Playhouse, the Studio and the western loggia.
