Darlinghurst, rainbow crossing


This progressive pride rainbow crossing has been installed at Taylor Square, on the corner of Bourke Street and Forbes Street, in the inner city suburb of Darlinghurst. It stands outside the former Darlinghurst police station which was repurposed in 2024 as Qtopia, a museum of queer history and culture.

  1. Colorful, and making a statement that wouldn't have been possible even a few years ago.

  3. One of my favorite parts of any gayborhood would be the rainbows. The world could use a little more color. 🌈

  4. Looks great after the freshen up. #SundayBest. Do they march across it at Mardi Gras? I don't think so

    1. This is a brand new rainbow crossing at the other end of Taylor Square. It's across the square from Oxford Street so not on the parade path.

  5. I like the Rainbow colors on the street. I also like them old buildings. Especially the one in left.

  6. That is an amazing building! The street isn't so bad either! But, the round part of the building is great.

    1. The two streets once intersected further down but I think it's quite cool that they redirected the roads to curve around further back and create the square. It is now the perfect shape for a rainbow crossing.

  7. Bright and loud, as it should be. Thanks for taking part in the "My Sunday Best" meme. (NixPixMix)
