    A favourite spot 50+ years ago - a girl, a blanket, and just watching the world go by. There was a steel ladder down the cliff at that time, and access was easy. Surprisng how much activity there was on the Harbour at night.

    Not easy to see - I think the Centennial Hall at Sydney Town Hall is under construction. Looks like scaffolding there.
