Description of No. 5
This photograph embraces the residential portion of Fortitude Valley, lying to the north of Brunswick Street, with Stratton and Teneriffe. In the immediate foreground is Ann Street, and a little beyond it, near the centre, is St. Patrick's Church and the adjoining playground. In the distance to the left are the Bulimba Wharves and Sheds, with the Brisbane River running through the corner of the picture. Brunswick Street stretches from the front to the back of the view on the right, with James Street parallel to it a little to the left of the centre. Then comes Wandoo Street and Chester Street running parallel with James Street. The streets running parallel with the picture from front to rear are Ann Street, Windmill Street, John Street, Jane Street, Arthur Street, Harcourt Street, Kent Street, Terrace Street, Heal Street, Annie Street, Brown Street, and Villers Street. Then comes Merthyr Road, which is just visible at the top centre of the picture, running down to the river.
