Reviewing and further reviving the historical landscape have significant impacts on developing this field for the designers [1]. It is useful for contemporary designers to learn from the past. They can practice analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of diverse past examples, recognizing the success criteria of contemporary designed landscapes, and exploring new ways to design sustainable public spaces for the future. This article will examine the Paddington Reservoir Garden, in Paddington, Sydney, Australia. This is as a successful and influential example as a heritage redesigned as a contemporary public open space.
