Clip description

Pyrmont is the peninsula suburb immediately west of the city of Sydney. It has heritage housing, affordable apartments and semi-industrial buildings. Traditionally working class, the suburb has moved upmarket. It is close to the city and Darling Harbour, a tourist area. It is under intense redevelopment. Two teenage girls describe the reactions they get to saying they live in Pyrmont.
