A bit of Sydney history

I haven’t blipped this for the Opera House or the large coathanger-like structure in the background but the loading ramp for the vehicular ferry in service up to 1932 prior to the opening of the Bridge.
My father used to tell me stories of his childhood when, in the 1920s, he used to wait in the queue for the ferry in the Vauxhall full of screaming siblings.
Over my left shoulder, and fortunately unseen is the Blues Point Tower, an architectural embarrassment inflicted upon Sydney residents in 1962.
