The first cut is the deepest

Barangaroo :  Demolition starts of former Cruise ship Terminal at Darling Harbour Wharf 8
'The '800' demolishing the Gantries' 2010 oil painting on canvas 36 x 46 cm
The Gantries

'The Gantries' Unfinished oil painting on canvas 36 x 46cm
Breakfast in the ruins
Gantry
'Gantry (keep)' Almost finished oil painting on canvas 46 x 36 cm
I had wondered if the gantries were to be kept intact & possibly recycled for use at the new cruise ship terminal soon to be built at White Bay.
They are instead about to be demolished by the very same man who built the orange gantry only 8 years ago.
The MUA has just linked an article about my paintings of the Hungry Mile & Barangaroo on their website to my other blog, "Industrial Revelation".
