Offering some of the best views of the city, at the top of the south east pylon of the Sydney Harbour Bridge is the Pylon Lookout.
Climbing the stairs to the Lookout provides a walk-through history of the building of the Bridge.
With 200 stairs, 87 metres above sea level and 3 levels of exhibits, there is a great deal to be learnt about the Sydney Harbour Bridge and its history, construction, the men who built it and the vision of the chief engineer JJC Bradfield to be discovered. 
The Pylon Lookout is a must-see while in Sydney providing a panoramic view of the City of Sydney, North Sydney, east towards the heads of Sydney Harbour, the Opera House, Circular Quay.
To get to the Lookout you must firstly climb the stairs to access the pedestrian footpath. The stairs are found just north of the intersection of Cumberland and Argyle Streets. Once on the footpath the Pylon is approximately 500 metres north.
Additional Information:
Address: Cumberland Street (on the Harbour Bridge).
