Bankstown Sydney NSW
This sign caught my attention on my way out of the Bankstown Centro Mall. “There’s Always Something Happening in Bankstown!” A great campaign ad by the Bankstown City Council. Yes, it was wet, rainy, and caught in a little traffic was the actual situation when I snap this photo on my car’s front screen! But that’s not the point. Bankstown has just celebrated it’s 30 years Anniversary!
