The western entrance Milsons Point railway station from Alfred Street in the north shore suburb of Milsons Point. The railway station was moved to this location in 1932 with the construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
I agree it's hard to see the sign "Milsons Point Station" in direct sunlight. However, the pastel green colour is suited to the Art Deco design. Perhaps it could be improved with a darker shade of green for the lettering.
ahhh gone are the days when designers put effort into making railway stations monumental and appealing. Milsons Point railway station could not be more Deco!
wow, that's a long time for the station to be there!
ReplyDeleteLove the style!

ReplyDeleteI don't know if you can read the sign from afar. Maybe change the color of the sign?
