beachcomber australia Yes, well spotted, this is Downshire Street looking towards Ferry Lane. Part of the Hero of Waterloo can be seen in the distance. The trees are on Observatory Hill. I identified a similar photo by Charles Walton in the State Library of New South Wales State Library of NSW collection a few years ago -
