Sydney photos - Woolloomooloo finger wharf

According to Wikipedia: "The Finger Wharf or Woolloomooloo Wharf is a wharf in Woolloomooloo Bay, Sydney, Australia. The structure is the largest timbered-piled building in the world and was completed in 1915. During its working life for around 70 years it mainly handled the export of wool, but also acted as a staging point for troop deployment to the World Wars as well as a disembarking point for new migrants."

It's now been converted into apartments, restaurants and a hotel, but still retains enough remnants of its industrial past.
