    Here's the same view in 1920: www.flickr.com/photos/state-records-nsw/2687730703/ And in 2008: www.flickr.com/photos/lifeasdaddy/2684017015/

    Kerry was rather keen on this view - www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/3004417112/ and www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/3023700018/ I think this one is the best, and the earliest - no tram electric pylons.

    Yep, beachcomberaustralia, you're right. Some other views photographers of the era were also keen on the same scene. Flip through some of the images of the Queen Victoria Building at Picture Australia to see some: www.pictureaustralia.org/apps/pictureaustralia?term1=quee... The Queen Victoria Building was one of the colossal Australian buildings of that age.

    Thanks lifeasdaddy for the link. it is interesting to search "Queen Victoria Markets" as well, to get a lot of older photos which have not been cross-referenced or tagged. Something odd with the State Library links - I will complain to my local State MP! The QVB certainly is 'colossal' - I always thought it needed two or three extra floors height to balance the length and those heavy looking domes on the roof. But I am so glad it survives and flourishes.

    Accompanying note: "M. E. Keath, a steeplejack from Lake Alfred, spent most of this morning atop the flagpole on the Capitol dome repainting and making repairs. Keath, who is 62, has been painting the pole regularly over the years. Total height of the pole from the ground is 120 feet."
