Looking to the city and the new sports stadium from Hoddle Bridge yesterday (I haven't left my flat today). It's depressing how quickly the banks of the river are fading from lush green to yellow/brown.

Ace things about Melbourne
- * Brunswick Street
- * Chapel Street Bazaar.
- * It has a lane named after rock band AC/DC and a swimming pool named after a Prime Minister who is believed to have drowned at sea
- * Its vibrant multiculturalism
- * Royal Botanic Gardens.
- * Shady Caroline Street in South Yarra
- * The disco balls hanging above Rankins Lane in the city
- * The domed reading room of the State Library.
- * The eucalyptus trees and old lamps beside the river near Fed Square.
- * The huge mural spanning the length of the side wall of Dimmey's discount department store in Green Street Richmond
- * The laneways, especially Degraves Street and Centre Place.
- * The old terrace houses in the inner suburbs.
- * The Royal and Block Arcades.
- * The street art (commissioned and otherwise).
- * The Victorian architecture, especially the interior of 333 Collins Street, the Olderfleet Building and the Melbourne Safe Deposit Building on Queen Street
- * The view of the city at night from the Swan Street Bridge.
- * The Windsor end of Chapel Street
- * There's always a festival or major event happening.
Thanks for the larger pics, fantastic....hope you are having a long weekend and are not ill.
ReplyDeletelooks like melbourne has the same crane invasion as brisbane ;)
ReplyDeleteStadium? I can see stadium lights off to the right, or are you talking about the domed structure? I think I drove past the domes the other week, had no idea what it was. I was curious. It has geo... something written along the fence/wall along the road? Am I thinking of the right place? I don't remember the cranes, put they were probably too high to see out the passenger window.
ReplyDeleteHello Abbeysmum. Alas, not a long weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi AWIP. Yep, it's like you can't look anywhere without seeing a crane.
Hey Trevor. That's the MCG on the right. The domed structure is going to be a new stadium for rugby and soccer.
I like dome structures and I´m sure you will some day show me the finished building.
