Martin Place

After more than six months camped outside the Reserve Bank building in Martin Place, and following months of negotiations between the state government and the City of Sydney Council, the homeless occupants of Sydney鈥檚 tent city began packing up their belongings on August 11.

The man often called the 鈥淢ayor of Martin Place鈥, Lanz Priestley, said some camp dwellers were moving to 鈥渇riend鈥檚 places鈥 or 鈥渇riend鈥檚 backyards鈥, but some 鈥渄on鈥檛 have anywhere to go鈥.
