Old and forgotten, or remembered only in passing as fashion dictates that attention should be paid to it. The inner city suburb of Redfern typifies the now cliché description of a melting pot. Home to every one, from the large indigenous population and lower income demographics, to the newly rich young entrepreneur who has decided that this inner city suburb should be the next Glebe or Balmain. A brief walk around the area of Redfern station can bring to the fore the whole gamut of emotions from hope to despair.
Around the back of the rail yards near Redfern station the late afternoon sunlight picks out the colours of neglect and provides a kind of urban beauty to what is a run down and disused area.
