[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Ha ha thanks! Yes, this photo shows the 1887 extension work to the Customs House (James Barnet, architect, modifying the original two-storey building by Mortimer Lewis). See - Andy Brill They extended again twelve or so years later!

About the EMU (1865 - this ISN'T the 1841 ship) -
"The Manly paddler 'Brightside' (269 tons - 950 passengers) was built in Glasgow and exported to Brisbane to be reassembled for use on the Brisbane River and Moreton Bay as PS EMU. She was originally owned by the Queensland Steam Navigation Company. After another owner, she came to the Port Jackson Steam Boat Company in January 1877 and stayed with the various forms of the Manly ferry company until 1909. She was renamed BRIGHTSIDE in 1887 and sank in June 1897. She was converted into a cargo ferry in 1902 and worked the Manly run in that role until 1908. After being gutted by fire in 1908 the hull was converted to a lighter, but was broken up in 1909."
From "A Pictorial History of Ferries, Sydney and surrounding waterways" Graeme Andrews, Reed 1982

In 1887 the EMU also had a collision with the WARATAH which sank just to the left of this photo. Maybe just after this photo was taken?! - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/13627954

I think it is Fig Tree Point on the Lane Cove river. The end of the ferry run, a popular swimming and picnic spot back in the day. See other photos and links -

Red herring - there's a wonderful description of an 1889 ferry ride from the city to Fig Tree Point from the AT&CJ - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/71121619/5435014 , plus illustrations on p.26.
