Hey guys, my names Justin, I manage a language school in Japan and conduct tours to Australia. I also like cars, so I bought a Japanese car magazine called 'Holiday Auto' and lo and behold... the back cover:



I can't remember what street that is in Sydney CBD, but you can see 126 Phillip on the right, and Chifley down the back. Thought you guys might like to know Sydney's far reaching appeal... :)

That is actually Phillip St from near Martin Place.

Thanks Rezz. I knew 126 would start to be photographed and appear in magazines.

BTW LOL @ the Wasei-eigo (Japlish), "Bigu byu dezain" (Big View Design).

...
Thanks Rezz for sharing that with us. That street is one of my fav's in the entire CBD.

Hahaha hence 126 'Phillip'? lol I can't believe that didn't occur to me.

Btw, could the skyline on the left hand side be a cut and paste job from a different area/city? I can't remember that big blue glass tower being there on the left...

No, thats the Colonial Center, just looking up.
..and @ 52 Martin Place. It's also the blue hue of the photo that they have used for effect. The Colonial Centre is actually a very dark brown with lighter "trimmings". It's also new home for Channel 7 news studios.
