This design features a shrunk-down arch, repeated three times across the harbour, with two extra supports in the waterway.

British-born Australian architect Norman Selfe nearly saw his vision for Sydney Habour come to life.

Throughout the years, the NSW government ran various competitions to design the bridge.

Selfe submitted various designs for each of the competitions, coming second in 1900.

In 1902, he won another competition, however the bridge was never built due to an economic slowdown, which meant that and he couldn’t claim his prize money of £20,000 for further work he did on the designs.
