3.1.1
Starting from Pirrama Road, where the last walk ended, I will continue along Johnstons Bay, along the southern side of it.
There on Pirrama Road, opposite Wharf 20 is a lift taking you up to a nice little park with a great view. I do like street lift! Also further on are steps leading to this park with a view.
From here you can overlook Pyrmont Point Park, see across Balmain and in the distance Millers Point and further on the Harbour Bridge.
In the 1990s Pyrmont Point was an industrial site and dismantled crane parts were stored there. The artwork here which moves with the wind and swell reminds me of this bygone time.
Now this is such a nice foreshore harbour park.
Each year on Australia Day
the ‘Jazz on the Harbour’ festival is staged here
and on that day Johnstons Bay, once a very busy container terminal is filled again with boats, pleasure boats.
