3.1.2
   Along the Pyrmont side of Johnstons Bay are many new residential developments.







With lots of open green space in between it is quite pleasant to stroll along.





                                  


Some of the old buildings are kept and transformed into modern apartments and offices. 




















Around the corner and there is Anzac Bridge.





Anzac Bridge replaced the other opening swing-span bridges, the Glebe Island Bridge.


Anzac Bride in 1994, on year before completion.
 This could be the end of my walk today: from Pyrmont Bridge to Anzac Bridge. 

It would not be far to the next bus stop, but that bus would take me back to the city. 

If I walk across the bridge I can catch a bus from Victoria Road directly home. 


And that way I can look at the old Glebe Island Bridge close up.












At the northern end of the bridge on each side are statues of Anzac soldier, one from Australia and one from New Zealand.













It was a long walk, but very interesting and pleasant.
