City of Perth Library.. terrace views.



Still in the City of Perth Library.. from the terrace on the third level of the library views of St. George's Cathedral and to the left below glimpses through to the Swan River. Btw the new library has in no way replaced the State Library of WA in the Perth Cultural Centre..


Below looking straight ahead the Cathedral to the left and to the right the Old Treasury buildings now home to some of Perth's newest 'foodie hotspots'. Looking through to St. George's Terrace, the sculpture Ascalon and the Supreme Gardens and way back there you can just see the tip of the Bell Tower..


Looking to the right over the rooftops of the Old Treasury buildings a clearer view of the Swan river with a glimpse of the new bridge (check out the super fab photo on link) at Elizabeth Quay and the older Narrows Bridge in the background. Hope that you're enjoying this series, it's certainly giving my knee a break :) one more post to go but it's a beauty, show you tomorrow. Happy Easter Sunday, take care and stay safe.. p.s. eleven links, that might be a record :)

  19. Nice views from the top Grace. Hope you had a wonderful Easter Sunday.
    I do wonder why they built the new library so close to the State Library?
