A fine crop of weeds in Albany Street, November 2017 |
This site on the east side of Albany Street, on the corner of
Duke Street, is another Central Real site and, as you can see from the lush
carpet of flowering weeds, it’s not active at the moment.
A similar state of affairs on the other side of Albany Street, November 2017 |
This site is almost opposite the site above. It’s on the west
side of Albany Street and backs onto one of the Lynn Avenue sites. We can see
it too is inactive at the moment and we can also see the sort of view of the
water the residents will be getting when it’s ready for them to move in.
Albany Street runs along the spine of the long narrow Point
Frederick, from the base of Pt Fred at York Street to the old cemetery in the
park at the very tip of Pt Frederick. Other than the park and the lovely old
school on Frederick Street, the Point is all houses and a lot of those houses
have views.
On the east side, the views are down into quiet Caroline Bay and
across to Green Point and Kincumba Mountain above Green Point. On the west
side, those views are down onto the yacht club and its marina and into the Gosford
Broad Water (part of Brisbane Water) and across to little Fagans Bay and Point
Clare and to the tree-covered ridge above them.
(Non-locals, York Street is part of the Central Coast Highway.
The part that goes past Pt Fred and through East Gosford.
Come back next week to see these sites and more on a nice
explanatory map.
