The Rocks, George Street, mural

This mural is painted on the front of a couple of traffic signal boxes along George Street, at The Rocks. They are close to the Brown Bear Lane mural and extend the theme of that artwork which depicts Brown Bear Lane in 1901, once located close to this spot. The signal boxes are under the railway viaduct which was built in 1956 to nearby Circular Quay railway station.

  1. Some of our utility boxes are starting to feature historic images. I like this one.

    1. Definitely Tom! You don't realise how ugly the boxes are, until the last one stands still undecorated.

  3. What a good idea, makes dull spots more interesting.

  4. That looks fabulous Jim, I was going to say it looks like the same style as the Brown Bear lane, and it is.
    Thanks for contributing.

  5. Nice work, and I'm always pleased to see them on smaller boxes and doors, as well as on walls.
