Visited Sydney a short while back and first time in many years. Where the gently caress did all those bush turkeys come from? Everywhere around Sydney they are just hanging out.

Might dump some more historic pics Mackay, QLD, 1969.  Railway Square, Sydney, early 60's.  Spring Hill, Brisbane, 1973.  Golden Grove St/Rose St, Golden Grove, Sydney, mid 70's. The suburb of Golden Grove was incorporated into Newtown, though remains a small locality. the factories are gone and are now social housing. The pictured end of Rose St is gone and is now part of USYD.  Ship Inn, Vulture St, Brisbane, 1985.  Floods in Maitland, NSW, 1949.

Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Might dump some more historic pics Much appreciated, good memories from even before my oldass time Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Mackay, QLD, 1969. The only place I've ever gladly walked around the town shirtless, it was drat hot and humid Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Railway Square, Sydney, early 60's. I was there last weekend and noticed the dental hospital, it's such a striking hauntological old piece of architecture  Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Spring Hill, Brisbane, 1973. Bit of childhood terror there, when I was a lad we watched some Aussie soap where a guy "gassed himself" in his apartment, they banged on the door and got no replay but smelled gas and they were like "oh well he's dead". We went to Brissy on the train and I was convinced those Spring Hill hotels was where it happened. Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Golden Grove St/Rose St, Golden Grove, Sydney, mid 70's. I'm always intrigued by these little lost Sydney micro suburbs, Forest Lodge, Macdonaldtown etc Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Ship Inn, Vulture St, Brisbane, 1985. Not sure how to place this one, are we looking down towards the Gabba? Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Floods in Maitland, NSW, 1949. And then the 1955 flood came and hosed things up properly! There's massive levee banks nowdays to keep the river in, but it still comes right up every few years.

The Proclamation was published in the New South Wales Government Gazette No.144, Thursday 23 May, 1872, page 1333. The Proclamation was authorised under the provisions of the “Municipalities Act of 1867”. The name of the of the “Municipality of Macdonaldtown” was altered from and after the passing of the Act to the “Borough of Erskineville” by Act of Parliament entitled “Borough of Erskineville Naming Act of 1893”, assented to on the 27 March, 1893. The Act was passed under the authority of the “Municipalities Act of 1867”. The “Municipality of Erskineville” was amalgamated with and absorbed into the City of Sydney in accordance with the provisions of the “Local Government (Areas) Act”, No. 30 1948, which came into effect on the 1st January, 1949.

Inceltown posted:Re: Macdonaldtown Does this help? Well, yes! I got caught up in CoS archives. Only got to page 30 of about 350 for pictures of Erskineville alone. So: Erskineville Dump! Flooding at MacDonald St bridge, 1969   Terminating road, Munni St, 1986  Backyards and terraces, 1936  Knight St, c1977  Bridge St, c1977  Gowrie St, c1977  Rose of Australia Hotel and Erskineville Station, c1977  Shops on Swanson St next to station bridge, long since demolished. c1977  Malcolm Motors, 198-208 George St (Now terrace apartments). c1977  Flora St, 1983  I love the grimy look, and the lack of trees makes for great views, but you know that whole place would be HOT AS poo poo in summer because of it. Remember that whenever boomers n poo poo say it was just as hot when they were young, it's because there were no fkn trees. If it's just as hot now WITH trees, poo poo's bad.
