Surry Hills, Single-O on a Thursday, a different population

Second Sydney day. Single-O again, counter-corner this time.

The Thursday population is different from Wednesday. The Vault-Sydney editorial pair from yesterday are gone. In their place a Chic-Management junior plus a Vault-junior at the back-bench discussing a Resort-26 capsule.

Reservoir-Street feeds Crown-Street, Crown feeds the Surry-Hills agency-belt. By eleven the corridor is dense. A young woman at the counter with a thin gold-cedar pendant catches the light each time she lifts her cup. I tracked her for ten minutes. Lebanese-Australian read, second-gen, mid-late-twenties.

The Field-Walk anchor opens itself. The corridor is the coffee, the coffee is the corridor.
