Sydney then and now: Scots Presbyterian Church and Assembly Hall

This 1930 photograph is in the Tyrrell Collection of the Powerhouse Museum, by an unknown photographer. 

Paula Bray blogged about it here.

Paula wanted to know if I could take a comparison shot, so here's one I took today:

The Heritage listing for the building can be found here, although it is out of date, as it does not include the recent complete redevelopment of the interior of the Church combined with the addition of an apartment development within, behind and above the Church which can be seen in this photograph behind the facade.

I have been to a service in this Church since the redevelopment, and it's really beautiful.

Hi lifeasdaddy

I am very impressed that you went out to get this comparison shot. Well done!

I enjoy looking at how the buildings and scenes from the Tyrrell collection appear today and what has changed or remained the same.

Thank you
