In the northeast corner of this little known open space in Sydney is a fine example of Edwardian civic design, a men's lavatory. Built in 1907 it is an underground structure capped by a metal dome and surrounded by handsome masonry screen walls with Art Nouveau ironwork over the entrance.
You could almost miss it as plants are growing up behind the masonry walls.
Above photo is an earlier one found on the internet. Below was taken recently.
It is now decommissioned and filled with sand which will allow for it's removal and re-use in future times.
I've got a shot of this one on my blog too. :)
