Where are the Local Listings?

Where are the Local Listings? They're on my new website Locally Owned Locally Made Gosford at lhttp://locallygosford.blogspot.com.au/.


Feedback made urgent the moving of the Local Listings to the new site, so they can flourish without having to be hunted down on this site.

Locally Owned Locally Made Gosford
will have live links to businesses websites and business phone numbers for tradespeople and others who don’t need websites. When I first go live, I’ll be putting up some live links and phone numbers for free until I have things sorted out and I’m ready to charge (standard) pay-per-click rates. Enjoy!

Neera Road Umina Beach is the second tiny house site in the Gosford area. You can find out what a "tiny house" is here: Tiny House Site

Subtle but Definite Skyline Change in Gosford



There has been a subtle but definite change in the Gosford skyline.

A tall yellow crane has been erected inside the Bonython Tower (Singo’s tower) building site and it now towers over Mann Street.

The crane is only just visible from a distance but its size gives us a hint of how much difference the tower will make to the Gosford skyline when it’s finished.

It was very tricky to get a photo of the crane. It was very busy swinging about picking up this and that and putting it down again and wasn't often side on as it is in this photo. But that busyness suggests the cracking pace this site as set so far will keep up and it won't be too long before the tower itself starts to show above the hoardings.


Come back next week for more updates on the numerous building sites we have in and around Gosford. Or pop over to Locally Owned Locally Made Gosford to avoid the Christmas rush.

Singo's tower AKA Bonython Tower

(Just a brief bit of wording for today's page as I'm not very well today.)



Fearless workers climbing around the outside of the yellow tower wrangling the cab of the crane into place. You wouldn't get me up there for love or money.



The tower of the yellow crane is solidly anchored against the north side of the site.




The yellow tower of the crane under construction and the red and white mobile crane on its truck.


Preparing to lift the swinging arm of the yellow crane up to be fixed to the top of the tower. That's it on the back of the truck in the laneway.


Just for pretty. Carpark light, mobile crane and tower of the yellow crane.

That's it for today. I need to lay down again. Come back next week for more building site excitement as we watch Gosford grow before our very eyes.

Neera Road


This is the second tiny house site in the Gosford area. It's in Neera Road Umina Beach and, as you can see, they haven't yet broken ground on it.

Perhaps they'll finish the first site at the corner of Showground Road and Racecourse Road in Gosford first, across the road from the old high school. I would have included a photo of it here but very little visible work has happened there since my last update on the site on the 18th of August 2017: http://changinggosford.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/tiny-house-site.html
