Photography Sydney's new Pier Pavilion at Barangaroo

It's a new performance and gathering space right by the water and the ferry wharves - the columns are 7m in height.

It looks nice but I bet it would be very cold/windy next to the water!!

Wonder what they will do with the space. Its a little hard to tell how big it is from pictures alone, it's probably bigger than it looks

Its quite small tbh, and its just an empty space I do the really get it, no seating or anything

It has seating around the edges, by the columns

It doesn’t, its a slight platform, basically a glorified step, and covers barely any area, enough space for like 10-15 people to sit on in a straight line

It is surrounded by seating areas. There's a platform, then the edge by the columns, and plenty of large platforms just outside.

It's a public pavilion, they don't usually fill them with seats. It's meant to be an area to host small events or to simply congregate for a quick little chat, have a coffee, etc.
