On either side of the main span of the Lennox bridge are two pedestrian underpasses. Along the walls, you'll find a series of murals, including one of the Sydney Morning Herald's divisive former architecture critic, Elizabeth Farrelly. Farrelly is representative of a particular type of resident of Sydney's wealthy eastern suburbs, who feel a deep disdain for anywhere 'out west', especially Parramatta. In a column, Farrelly expressed her disdain for a project to restore the Lennox Bridge underpass, on the grounds that: "Two brutish square-shaped faux-functional holes whose every semiotic cue says 'enter here and invite Clockwork Orange-style violence upon your person' will improve heritage value how, exactly? This is a clear instance of architectural theory running roughshod over the facts." The quote was placed on a large mural in the underpass. There's also a drawing of David Lennox (who designed the bridge), a chart of historic Parramatta River mega-floods, and an acknowledgement of the Burramattagal–Dharug people (who are the Traditional Custodians). #building #buildings #architecture #art #auspol #Parramatta #Sydney #NSW #Australia
