A life-size bronze figure looks back through time at an image of the Barracks before it was demolished to make way for the new freeway extension. Holding a Box Brownie camera and a handful of photographic plates, the Unidentified Photographer beckons the public to look inside his camera. Inside the Gladstone bag are bronze models of various trade tools of the professionals who once worked on the Terrace.
