The French Connection


Sydney City's "street furniture" is provided by French company, JC Decaux. This includes bus shelters (which some people complain don't shelter you from the sun in summer, or rain!), power poles, rubbish bins, toilets, telephone booths.

Here's an example in Elizabeth St in the city. You can see Hyde Park through the glass.

There's some pics of a Decaux toilet on my other site, Sydney Daily Photo Extra. Just quietly, they appear better maintained than the free toilets you find around Paris these days.
