Woolloomooloo and Darlinghurst

A view of the inner city suburb of Woolloomooloo stretching back to Darlinghurst. In the foreground are two pubs, the Woolloomooloo Bay Hotel and The Bells Hotel. In the distance, the tallest buildings are the The Elan and Millennium apartment towers at Kings Cross and the Horizon Apartments tower at Darlinghurst.

That is a fine view or your fine city. Must have been on a hill or in the upper reaches of another building!

Lowell, this shot was taken from a lookout above apartments at Woolloomooloo. A skybridge links it to the Botanic Gardens, which are much higher above.

I'm with Colin Campbell—Woolloomooloo is the best name ever! (And Darlinghurst isn't too shabby either.)
