It always amazes me that the whole bridge rests on four of these bearings. GoogleMapsStreetView - maps.google.com.au/maps?ll=-33.854468,151.209834&spn=...

beachcomber australia Wow that Google maps image is almost exactly the same. It is quite amazing, and it's great we have a pictorial record of the building of the bridge!

Here we see one of the Sydney Harbour Bridge end posts being placed in position...the end post is being attached to the stub of the lower chord, which rests on the main bearing...could be at either Dawes Point or Milsons Point... trove.nla.gov.au/work/230288605 - this NSW Transport pic shows the SW end post at Dawes Point being placed in position...the date on the pic is 1st November, 1928...so I suspect this ANMM Sam Hood pic might have been taken in late 1928 (Dawes Point)...or maybe early 1929 (Milsons Point)... trove.nla.gov.au/work/185554859 - NLA Fairfax pic of the SW end post at Dawes Point being placed in position...

indeed, the date of this pic is November 1928, not "late 1931"; see builder's dated photos of record … content.archives.nsw.gov.au/delivery/StreamGate?dps_pid=F...
