Summary

View of Adelaide looking west down Franklin Street, taken by Townsend Duryea from the tower of the Adelaide General Post Office in 1870. In the left foreground can be seen the Methodist New Connexion Church (later Maughan Methodist Church, demolished in 1964). At right, on the edge of the image, is the Bible Christian Church in Young Street, demolished in 1979. At the far end of Franklin Street, on West Terrrace, is the flagstaff, where different signals were hoisted to indicate what vessels were passing up and down the gulf. To see a summary of this panorama group do a number search on B 16004.
