Aerial view of Port Adelaide area

c. 1927, Photograph, B 3989

[General description] The North Arm of the Port River viewed from above with Lefevre Peninsula and the suburbs of Semaphore (middle of image) and Largs Bay (on right) in the distance, and the sea beyond. Both jetties can be clearly seen. The six masted ship on the river is probably a barquentine as its fore-mast is square-rigged and all others are fore-and-aft. [On back of photograph] 'Reproduced in the 'Chronicle', Feb. 5, 1927 / Aerial view of Port Adelaide River looking south west from the North Arm / 1927'. The following information was provided by a researcher: 'The Torpedo Station can be clearly seen in the middle of the photograph. It is the square piece of land on the corner of the North Arm and Hindmarsh Reach of the Port River. The creek that forms its eastern boundary (Perrys Creek) was extended and deepened by the Naval Reserve and Torpedo Station staff and used for mooring and storage of Naval vessels. The magazine and boat sheds can be seen. They ran along a raised road from the River to the point where Perrys Creek met the diagonal track into the Port. The track was rarely above water and was unpassable. The False Arm, near the Torpedo Station's southern edge, is also very clear'.
