悉尼Powerhouse Museum帕拉马塔分馆将于11月7日开放1，标志着这一重大公共文化机构项目的落成，但其发展过程历经重重波折。NSW艺术部长约翰·格雷厄姆将该博物馆称为"西部的歌剧院"1。该项目总资本支出达14亿澳元1，其中帕拉马塔校区建设成本飙升至9.15亿澳元1，超出原始预期。项目首席执行官莉萨·哈维拉在开幕前夕突然离职1，由NSW政府建筑师艾比·加尔文接任代理首席执行官1。
项目的延迟与成本膨胀源于十年的政治妥协，导致博物馆被分为三个独立校区1。开幕前的准备工作投入巨大，博物馆花费超过700万澳元，其中包括为30套员工公寓装饰40条定制地毯、单条成本4000澳元1。宣传方面投入超过500万澳元，其中170多万澳元用于制作纪录片1。此外，关于采购实践和招聘程序的举报投诉调查已进行近一年1。前悉尼歌剧院负责人路易丝·赫伦已被聘为高级顾问1。NSW政府去年承诺投入2.56亿澳元用于Ultimo校区的重新开发1。
The Powerhouse Museum is set to open in Parramatta on November 7, marking a major public cultural institution project for Sydney 1. However, the opening comes after significant cost escalations and leadership turbulence that have drawn comparisons to the challenges faced during the construction of the Sydney Opera House.
The total capital expenditure for the project has reached $1.4 billion, with the Parramatta campus alone costing $915 million 1. NSW Arts Minister John Graham has dubbed the museum "the Opera House of the west" 1. The project's expansion was driven partly by a decade of political compromises that ultimately split development across three separate campuses 1. Chief Executive Lisa Havilah abruptly departed just before the opening, with NSW government architect Abbie Galvin stepping in as acting chief executive 1. The project has also enlisted Louise Herron, former head of the Sydney Opera House, as a senior adviser 1.
Scrutiny has extended to operational spending, with the museum expending over $70 million on pre-opening preparations, including $4,000 custom carpets for thirty staff apartments 1. Marketing costs exceeded $5 million, with $1.7 million or more allocated to documentary production 1. Additionally, investigations into procurement practices and recruitment procedures have been ongoing for nearly a year 1. The NSW Minns government committed $256 million last year toward redeveloping the Ultimo campus as part of the broader initiative 1.
