The final detail from the Princes Bridge – the heraldic version of St Edward’s Crown.

Another unidentified coat of arms newly restored on Princes Bridge. Each of the local councils that funded the new bridge were commemorated in having their coat of arms adorn the arches.

A newly restored coat of arms on the Princes Bridge. The motto reads “Virtute et fide” – by virtue and faith or, by valour and fidelity. Each of the councils that funded the building of the bridge were commemorated with their coat of arms. This looks like a historic City of Melbourne coat of arms – being a close copy of that of that of the Viscount of Melbourne.

An interesting counterpoint to the daytime photo from a similar vantage point at the Melbourne Arts Centre. From left to right we have: the dome of Flinders Street Station, St Paul’s Cathedral spires, the gothic revival 196 Flinders Street, and Federation Square appears to sit on Princes Bridge.

The Flinders Street / Swanston Street corner of the CBD caught from the Art Centre looking over the Yarra River. The dome of Flinders Street Station peaks out from behind the trees. St Paul’s Cathedral spires tower over the corner, followed by the gothic revival 196 Flinders Street – once home to the Metropolitan Gas Company, now Torrens University Melbourne campus. While Federation Square appears to sit on Princes Bridge from this angle.

Zoe and Susan pose on the Princes Bridge with the Southbank Pedestrian Bridge and its Merry Christmas sign in the background.

An overview of the 15,000 block Lego Mini Melbourne. We have a drone’s eye-view from the end of Swanson Street, looking across Flinders Street and over the Princes Bridge to the Arts Centre. Unfortunately, the edge has chopped through St Paul’s Cathedral and Young and Jacksons.
