In the now closed car park beside UTS building 10 the sign declares it full. Perhaps theĀ  sign is thinking back to better days, when many a uni student and staff member would park there for the day? Or maybe it has its invisible friends there to keep it company?

There has been quite a few groups of students standing round with this tripod things. I suppose it is the time in semester when surveyors got let loose on the work to practice their skills.

Clouds over demolitionThe few remaining buildings and chimney of the former Carlton United Brewery on Broadway, Chippendale.

It was interesting to come back to Sydney after a year, and find the space opposite UTS raised to the ground. An expanse of open space, and this one tall chimney.

I see that this project has been coming along for some years. And that it is intended to be a green urban renewal project.

It will be interesting to see what it looks like when finished, in 6 to 8 years. But for now it is nice to have a little more open space so close to Sydney CBD.

Former TAFE building opposite UTS building 10 on Wattle St. Sydney, Australia

It was interesting to find this photo of the building, because it doesn’t exist any more. Having been knocked down earlier this year for more green area at the uni.
