The following pictures are an attempt to visualise the impact of the proposed new surf club buildings at Long Reef.
The original picture was taken from near the Dee Why ocean pool looking north west toward Long Reef. The image of the club was created by copying an artist’s impression from Warringah Council’s website and pasting it in on top of the original view. This is not a professional composite image by any stretch of the imagination. Instead, the development’s position and scale in the image was derived by looking at the site and the council’s publicly released documents (see links below) about the size and location of the proposed building.
As you will see in the ‘before’ pictures below, the present surf club buildings are not visible from the photograph vantage point.
