Breakfast Point, community hall

A winter sky over the community hall in the inner west suburb of Breakfast Point. The Breakfast Point Community Hall was only built in 2005 but the style and material makes it look like a church built in another century. The suburb was named to honour the point of contact between Europeans and Aborigines. Captain John Hunter's expedition were exploring the Parramatta River and having breakfast here on 5th February 1788 when they encountered the traditional owners of the land, the Wangal Clan. John Hunter, later became the Governor of New South Wales.
