Federation arch over tree-lined street

from Powerhouse Museum

    best shot
  • BobMeade said:
    The Federation of the Commonwealth of Australia celebrations held in Sydney during 1901 saw many arches erected through the city and down Oxford Street. This is the German arch, and it was erected in Park Street. Hyde Park can be seen to the left and right of shot. The two disc shaped bas-reliefs on the columns show at left "Germania" and at right "Australia". (location ref. City of Sydney archvies - www2.photosau.com/CosSQL/scripts/ExtSearch.asp?SearchTerm... ) The central slogan which is only visible through at the persistant URL is 'EINIGKEIT-MACHT-STARK". Literally, "Agreement makes strong."
  • BobMeade said:
    Now that we know another arch, the 'Commonwealth Arch" (shown here: www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/3129855980/ ) was on the corner of Elizabeth Street and Park Street, and that the Commonwealth Arch arch is visible in the background of this photograph then we can say that the view shown in this photograph is looking west along Park Street.
  • BobMeade said:
    The reverse view of this arch, with a different main slogan in English can be seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/old_parliament_house/3230766690/in/...

    Post rising. mid to late 1920's ? It's 10:30 and there's an elephant on a window ledge. On the side of No.8 can be seen "DunLaoghaire". It was Kingstown prior to 1920.
  • Dún Laoghaire Micheál said:
    The street sign for Princes Street is in the (then) modern style which - I believe - were erected during the city-wide makeover around the time of the Eucharistic Congress. Thus narrowing the time window to after 1931/2. The corresponding ones in Dun Laoghaire Borough were a distinctive mustard colour, the Dublin City & County ones were green. Note the distinctive border.flic.kr/s/aHsk1L527d
