Thanks, Gordo...

I was mainly after some decent photos taken from the rooftop of The Palisade, looking towards Barangaroo... :-k

Image

...As you can see :down: from this shot, (The Palisade is left of the tower,) after the tower, The Palisade is
the tallest observation platform in The Rocks precinct... I'm amazed there's no photos on the 'net taken from
The Palisade's rooftop back towards Darling Harbour and Barangaroo..! :dontknow:

Image

Image

Image

I thought you might be interested in this time-lapse photography of the development of Barangaroo, from
commencement in 2011 until now... The Palisade features prominently (on the left) in most of the frames... :yes:

.................. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNyKJWqntPs[/youtube]
........................... :up: The Palisade is the large brown square building on the left...
And whilst I'm straying :offtopic: this video gives a really great overview of the Barangaroo Project for non-locals...
