Default a little help please

Hello from the U.S. !

I was Wondering if anyone can identify this photo for me ? It's on the cover and page 93 of HONDA S2000 PERFORMANCE PORTFOLIO by Brooklands Books.



The review is from Motor Australia Oct 2004. Actually, I'm interested in the building ! Apparently it's somewhere in Victoria. I've searched extensively on line but can't find anything.

I was hoping my fellow S2000 owners from Oz could help. Thanks very much.

I took that photo off the web. It's very low rez.

I'll take a photo myself of page 93 which offers a larger image and shows more of the building.

Thanks.

Hardly huge, but at least slightly bigger.



Hardly a standout building however. Any one got a clue?

Here's the photo of page 93 with the building in question.

Is this an apartment, building condo, or ???

I hope someone can identify it. Thanks for your efforts.

Hello XOZ !

Simply out of curiousity. I'm fond of architectual structures, especially modern ones, as I've photographed buildings on and off during my career as a photographer. I find this particular structure appealing and wondered its purpose.

I've researched the heck out of it on the internet but came up short. I thought my fellow S2Kers in Australia could lend a hand.

I agree ZZZ but it would have to be a very large complex. The numbers by the doors are 32 and 33. I'm thinking a very spacious facility.

I'm surprised that I don't find it when I google "modern buildings" in Australia, or some such wording.

I love a mystery !

Thought I'd let you know . . . . .Mystery solved !
I contacted the writer of the article. Dean Evans. Heck of a nice guy to take the time to answer my unusual e-mail.
He checked with the photog, Mark Bean, who thought it was around Homebush Bay. So I continued my internet search and found the location on several Realtors' sites in Sydney.


BINGO ! It's units 32/33 in the Homebush Business Village, NSW.

That made my day !
