    How cool these row houses are! Minus the satellite roof dish, I imagine I am on Oz 100 years ago - good style lasts a long time!

    I think some architect was having a northern European fantasy in this group of terrace houses. The ground floor looks normal for Australia while the top floor looks like gingerbread houses from Netherlands? Scandinavia? Northern Germany?

    what fun houses! Beats the heck out of some American townhouses that resemble "stack-a-shack" ant hills. Cheers and thanks for all your interesting photos!

    The gingerbread makes such intricate shadows!

    Not The Netherlands, more Scandinavian. Great houses. I like your blog.

    The peachy color contrasts so well with the blue sky, I like the gingerbread frosting curves too. Woolloomooloo seems like a fun place to visit.

    Romantic roof line design. Somehow this reminds me of Italy.

    I watch the Block, do you? Have they done one in your area? They are doing it just round the corner from my school.

      I'm not a fan of much reality television. They did two in Bondi, one in Manly and one in Vaucluse but all the rest have been in Melbourne.

    Great catch. My first thought was they reminded me of some homes in San Francisco, and then I started thinking coo-coo clocks.
