Description
Here to ruin some north shore cims' view of the Harbour Bridge. Derided as one of the ugliest buildings in Sydney, Harry Seidler's Blues Point Tower was to be the first of many proposed modernist apartment buildings filling the postcode of McMahons Point. It was completed in 1962 and was the tallest residential building in Australia until 1970. It sort of resembles a big jenga tower.

This recreation is a 3x3 level 4 high density residential building. It is around 25 stories tall, 83m high. It's fairly high detail so maybe not suited to fulfilling Seidler's dream. It also includes a rotating prop on the roof which is a radar installed by NSW Maritime in 2011 to assist with traffic control.

This seems to ignore the "no highrise" district policy, which is hilariously realistic.

Thanks for all your sydney assets robert please keep it up. I love your trains too, I use the pacific national livery for freight because you see those on my train line heading south out the city regularly, and all your sydney public transport

Spent 2.5 years working just across the bay from this thing, staring at it on quiet days. The sun sets behind it. Very cool to see it in game as well

Oh, brilliant! Just tested it, removed the note from the description. Thanks for reaching out and also for your work maintaining an essential mod!

The "Blue and Blues" issue was caused by a bug in Find It. It should be fixed in the latest Find It 2 update
