An urban alleyway that beautifully contrasts the natural and the built environment. On one side, there’s a touch of greenery with plants in pots and garden beds, while on the other, a weathered wall of an older building stands. In the distance, modern skyscrapers rise, suggesting this alley is part of a city that blends historical and contemporary architecture. The partly cloudy sky hints at changing weather conditions.Community gardensFrances Newton Reserve Community GardenDarlinghurst
