This view of the former Coroner's Court building at The Rocks is from Circuar Quay West. It was designed by Walter Liberty Vernon and built in 1906, in the Federation Free Style of architecture. The building is built on sandstone which is partially exposed and on display under the arch here. Further up another arch now features a glass window which reflects the sky.
Oh I haven't noticed this on previous trips Jim, will look out for it this time..I do like the way parts are exposed.
ReplyDeleteJim, that's a very interesting way to display the sandstone.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great idea to show the sandstone! Arianna
ReplyDeleteInteresting contrast between rock and brick........I like the arches.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
That's certainly an unusual way to show the rock... and the architecture appeals to me.
ReplyDeleteLove those rocks, Jim!
ReplyDeleteI like the shape of each of these windows Jim, and what a refreshing idea to expose what lay beneath/behind a building's external appearance.
ReplyDeleteWindows on the top floor are interesting.
ReplyDeleteInteresting vision of the arch and the rocks, of the windows from the up level... A good day and a sunny weekend!
