Wow, Sydney is one of my favorite world cities. That last photo is amazing. I did not realize there was such a skyline there and it appears to be growing too.

One heck of a city!

[Allan]

Wow! I didn't realize that Sydney had that much density in the city center. I can't wait to see what the future holds for the city.

Nice photos. Got any true aerials of Syndey from a helicopter or airplane?

[Delta]

LOL I guess the title of the thread has 2 meanings. All except the last were taken from Sydney Tower, which is Sydney's highest structure @ 309m/1014ft from street level.

(Will make new thread after gathering some pics)

Very nice. Does Sydney's CBD have any surface lots, or is every block developed?

Wonderful pictures. Sydney is a beautiful, wonderful city.

Thanks again people

Very nice. Does Sydney's CBD have any surface lots, or is every block developed?

Not so much as North American ciities have. The few remaining in the traditional Sydney CBD are all earmarked for development.

There's probably just a few more in Melbourne's CBD, but even then not so many.

The Recent Satellite Photos show a somewhat severe drought in many place. Australia definitely has their challenges like the rest of the World with droughts. As we increase our populations every new soul will require increased infrastructure efficiency or expanding of the systems of civilization and nothing is more important than that of water supplies and distribution. The flow of clean and fresh water has to do with which way the rivers flow and the weather that delivers the water to the land by way of rain.

Some day we maybe able to control the weather; this will truly be a major accomplishment of mankind in the next decade, but in the meanwhile we must not underestimate the World
