A large-scale installation of old escalators of Wynyard station in Sydney CBD is a fine example of reusing the old and making a legacy. I have travelled on these escalators many a times until Wynyard station went into a major upgrade recently. The escalators have served commuters for many decades and now hang on the ceiling as a large artwork. Its massive loops frame various entrances in and out of the station to York street exit. Below are some photos from my recent visit.
