The Lennox Street bridge underpass is an example of the old local government planning proverb: revenge is a dish best served via permanent signage.

The Lennox Street Bridge pedestrian underpass in Parramatta. It's a shaded tunnel in a sandstone bridge. A large sign of a white woman, former Sydney Morning Herald columnist and failed state political candidate Elizabeth Farrelly. Superimposed on her is the text:&10;&10;Two brutish square-jawed faux-functional holes whose every semiotic cue says, 'enter here and invite Clockwork Orange-style violence upon your person' will increase the heritage value how, exactly? This is a clear instance of architectural theory running roughshod over the facts.
