The House of Worship in Sydney, Australia was dedicated on September 17, 1961, and open to the public after four years of construction. The initial design by Charles Mason Remey was approved in 1957, and given to Sydney architect John Brogan to develop and complete. The final piece, atop the dome, had to be lifted into place by helicopter, and this was featured on television news. The surrounding gardens contain native plants including waratahs, several grevillea including the unique caleyi, the native pea, wattle and woody pear, plus three species of eucalypts. The property is set high in a natural bushland setting of 380,000 square metres in Ingleside, a northern suburb overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
