    It is very sad, the same people who manage lands are the same people who removed a piece of their own history, and on both sides of this street, now all that is left is the building in the far distance.

    Uminarampart thanks for that interesting information about James Barnet's intentions. It shows up clearly on the Google Maps satellite picture - maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&... . Recently found a picture of James Barnet on top of the (new) Macquarie Lighthouse - www.flickr.com/photos/state-records-nsw/4312847312/

    Its so funny seeing Sydney Town Hall as the tallest structure. And of all the buildings in this picture, only the ones on the left (St Andrews Cathedral, the Town Hall and the Queen Victoria Building) remain standing today.

    Strange - tram lines and pylons all in place (George St line opened in December 1899), but no trams at 2:48pm. I wonder if this was taken just before the trams started operating?
