Here is a picture of the road to Cottesloe Beach. On the right is 2 huge Norfolk Pine Trees that are ailing but where a pair of Ospreys have built their nest.



The Cottesloe council are removing trees infected with a fungus growth. I am SO worried for the Osprey... the red arrow indicates the  nest area.. As you can see, the 100 year old trees aren't looking their best.

You're looking at the most expensive piece of real estate on the planet.

That road or neighbourhood?



I looked it up and apparently Hong Kong and Singapore have the most expensive housing markets in the world.

The neighbourhood and that road... you have to be a billionaire to live on that stretch of coast... Cottesloe Golf course on the right, Indian Ocean on the left.

The bottom picture isn't a house, it is a restaurant AND it is only a matter of time the ocean will swallow it up sadly The first picture is an historical building.... a federation building. It's not about size, it is about historical architecture and good taste.

I don't know why municipal governments would grant building permit. When the house is swallowed up, it will be expensive for emergency/rescue services.

I'm posting from smart tv so I can't c&p, but due to horrendous storms, the surges go right up to the restaurant, not the houses Billionaire Twiggy Forrest wants to pull down the iconic building and do some massive deveolment. Google, Planned development for Cottesloe Beach WA.



I hate the idea.
