Whenever I get the opportunity, as I did at the weekend, to take shots from the 13th floor of Aimee's office building, I can't get there fast enough, it really is the perfect spot to check on the progress of the Perth City Link project. Above, the Horseshoe Bridge which will still be the main access for traffic to and from Northbridge and the city, but whereas before the area between was taken up by the Fremantle rail line, now sunken below, this area is to be named Yagan Square and will be a major public space. Below you can just see the Perth Arena (my header pic) up there to the left. There's still a way to go but bringing the cultural aspects of Northbridge together with the business side of the city makes perfect sense to moi! Will keep you posted on progress. Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe...p.s. the windows in Aimee's building are designed in a way that I had to slightly lean out to take these shots, pretty brave huh :)
Oh my, that is brave of you to lean out those windows. Whenever I do something like that I always have these visions of dropping my camera. There is a lot of work going on down there.
ReplyDeleteHi, Aimee! Hi, G! What fun to see with you
ReplyDeleteWarm ALOHA,
ComfortSpiral
Somehow puts me in mind of the old Drifters song:
ReplyDelete"On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there, the world below can't bother me"
You're not going to venture up on to the roof next week, are you?
It looks good; and I'm waiting with anticipation to see the finished project!
ReplyDelete13th floor. You are braver than I. I don't think I could work in a building that tall of on any 13 floor!
Amazing views, Grace!
ReplyDeleteAh, I do love the view!! And terrific captures as always!! I hope your week is going well, Grace!! Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteThe projects will be worth it once completed but they seem to be taking a very long time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool view Aimée! Is that a traffic jam winding down there? Took me two hours to get home tonight so I'm done with cars for today!
ReplyDeleteGreat views, but please take care! We need more photos from you :)))
ReplyDeleteQuite a bit of dirt being moved-- it will be nice to see the finished project. Love your striking header photo too.
ReplyDeleteGreat works are always spectacular! An amazing view!
ReplyDeleteConstruction everywhere, Grace!
ReplyDeleteGreat view. Did you get out and walk on that cat walk that goes around the building?
ReplyDeleteOoooh be careful Grace 13 floors is a long drop...
ReplyDeleteLeaning out? You go, girl! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is quite the view!
ReplyDeleteHope Aimee was holding onto you! Your headaches could be your worry about the little one, poor wee thing.
ReplyDeleteHard to get an understanding of this from photos but if you get a big new public plaza, all the better.
ReplyDeleteGosh Grace. There is so much construction going on. I wonder what the city will look like in 10 years time.
ReplyDeleteWeee, Grace, that sure was brave!!
ReplyDeleteGuess I won´t recognise much next time, huh? Perth is changing so quickly!
Fantastic view! It will be fun to see what appears.
ReplyDeleteAt least someone didn't call the police, assuming that you were going to jump!
ReplyDeleteI like the urban view... that bridge is very odd in shape and would seem destined to create a bit of a traffic bottle neck.
It is always nice to have an overview so now and then to follow a progress in construction works.
ReplyDeletelike a line of little ants!
ReplyDeleteInteresting.
ReplyDeleteYou're lucky to be able to get those views Grace.
ReplyDeleteThe city goes on for ever!
ReplyDeleteWow...Aimee's got a terrific view of...construction! But it will no doubt look great when it's finished. Perth is such a beautiful city.
ReplyDeleteAn amazing view, Grace !
