Historic military sites sold to fund defence | 7NEWS

The Australian federal government has announced the sale of 60 Defence Force properties, including Sydney's historic Victoria Barracks from the 1840s, Spectacle Island naval base, part of Penguin Base at Balmoral, and Lancer Barracks in Parramatta. The property audit identified these sites as surplus and costly to maintain, with the sell-off expected to raise $1.8 billion after costs are met. All proceeds will be reinvested into Defence spending, with plans to preserve heritage values and potentially open some sites for public access or housing developments.
