The Grounds of Alexandria
“Built into the remnants of a heritage-listed warehouse and spilling into an enormous courtyard and organic garden in Sydney’s west, The Grounds is both stunning and about as culturally indispensable as the Harbour Bridge. It’s funny to think it was once a Four’N Twenty pie factory.”
