Demolition site in Ultimo 2*

Ultimo, an inner suburb of Sydney, is becoming revitalised as more and more people move into the inner city area. Old warehouses and factories are being knocked down to make way for apartment blocks.

This building was not visible from the street before demolition work began, but still graffiti artists took the time and trouble to leave their handiwork behind. Sometimes, when the local council considers the old building to be of heritage value, the developer is made to keep the facade and other features and incorporate them into the apartment block.

Thanks Peter, & I hope you can understand me cockney Aussie accent in my reply to you on shot one:-) I really like the first two shots best even though I stamped em off topic. It won't affect the votes you get as no one takes any notice of me here, especially the girls:-)

Hi Rod,

This is a close-up of the site shown in "Demolition site in Ultimo 1", so my comments on that picture apply here too. I took the photo to show the inside of the building - that it is derelict and uncared for.

Cheers,
Peter

Very nice shot Luv, but even more off topic than the first shot. Even if you're a Sheila:-)
