Times change!

This part of Melbourne's Yarra River is now known as "Docklands", with apartment buildings and glass towers on both sides. Back in 1965 when I sailed from here to the Antarctic (PiP), it was North Wharf and a very busy shipping and industrial area!

Wishing everyone a Happy Bench Monday and a good week to follow.

Those industrial areas are disappearing George. Mostly retail and apartments here now.
I like your PiP, which I guess was in 1965. Good and interesting shots. HBM.

Happening all over. London's docklands are now all apartments and offices, too. Like the old photo of the ship.

Same in Paris: the industrial estates along the Seine river disappeared to make room for buildings with apartments. HBM George.
