King Street Wharf, sculpture

This contemporary sculpture is located at the end of King Street Wharf, near Barangaroo. It's part of a matching pair, with other one located nearby but closer to the wharves, which can be seen here. In the background are a number of newer office buildings, including No.1 Shelley Street and Westpac Place.

    It has been very windy here in Ohio yesterday and today. It is also very wet and cold. The leaves are falling. The sky is a dark winter gray color. I can't seem to stay warm.

    I enjoyed my visit to your blog.

    This area of Sydney is almost unrecognisable to me now! And that's a good thing! Far more pleasing to the eye, fresh and quite stylish!

    Mark, that's No.1 Shelley Street, which is the headquarters for Macquarie Bank. You can follow the link in this post to my previous photo of that building.

    This tower is sculpted - neither vertical nor horizontal, it maintains subtle arcs that keep our eyes moving to and fro. Neat capture of a beautiful Sydney!
