Stanmore

|
This Corunna Road house in Stanmore is understood to
have been built in the 1890s. Imagine waking up in the
morning to see that this had been delivered to your
front door.

Stanmore
Bruce Street offers a sampling of the
aged, but imposing, houses of Stanmore.
Stanmore
In Stanmore, with only a couple of exceptions,
all of Corunna Road’s 250 houses are pre-Alan.

Tackle four chess opponents simultaneously
in Stanmore’s Weekley Park.
Sutherland
In which of these would you prefer to reside
when you finish in Sutherland's Sutherland Street, at the Woronora Cemetery
Sydenham
Some of the transport in Sydenham is 50
years old. Buses from a museum in Gannon Street in neighbouring
Tempe trundled through Sydenham streets each Sunday.
The blue Atlantean bus was nicknamed Sydney's "trouble-decker"
because union opposition to one-man operation caused
rolling strikes that removed the buses from the roads
after a short trial.
Sylvania
Waters
Sylvania Waters (where a TV series, the
name of which escapes us, was set) is built on artificial
islands, three of which are shaped like crescents. James
Cook Island is perhaps the most impressive.
Tempe

If you want a real challenge, walk every
Sydney street in alphabetical order. Your odyssey will
finish here in Tempe.

Tempe
If you ignore the Princes Highway (which
you can't), Tempe is all heritage houses or open green areas.
In Tempe Reserve you can meet the wetlands birds who have
chosen not to compete for air space with the planes from neighbouring
Sydney Airport.
Tempe
A houseboat and several pleasure craft
idle peacefully on the Cooks River beside Holbeach Avenue,
Tempe. But what’s causing the boat at the right
to levitate?
