East Fremantle - Old Post Office On Canning Highway in East Fremantle is this building - Manera Antiques. In the old days this was the East Fremantle Post Office. It's amazing how the antiques & craft people seem to have a monopoly on grabbing and converting old post offices and fire stations. June 2008 |

East Fremantle - Preston Point Road This block of apartments (I think they used to be called flats) tower on the corner of Canning Highway & Angwin Street. Given what's happened with property prices etc over the last decade I wonder if they'd build this again here today if they had the chance? The block is called Harbour Lights. June 2008 |

East Fremantle - View to Rottnest Climb up Angwin Street a little and this is a view through someone's front gate. You can see across the roofs to the Swan River and Stirling Bridge and over beyond that's the Indian Ocean complete with a car carrying ship coming or going to Japan or Korea or wherever they make cars now. June 2008 |

East Fremantle - Stirling Bridge Passing along the Swan River through East Fremantle on our Captain Cook river cruise. We're heading west towards Fremantle and we're nearly up to the Stirling Bridge. The water is somewhat discoloured because of dredging in the port has stirred up all the river sediment. October 2010 |

East Fremantle - Fremantle Bridge And further along the Swan River through East Fremantle we're coming up to the old Fremantle Traffic Bridge. Beyond this bridge is the Port of Fremantle. October 2010 |
