A point to anyone who can tell me where I am ...
A clue: It's the connection between Frank Lloyd Wright, Smith and Caughey's, and Auckland University's clock tower.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
You're at number 12

Answer: I was in Castlecrag, NSW, looking at the homes and subdivision designed by Walter Burley Griffin and his wife Marion Mahoney Griffin, after winning the competition to design Canberra. The Griiffins worked for Frank Lloyd a Wright in Chicago before winning and emigrating, and their employee Frank Lippincott won the competition to design the clock tower, and designed several buildings around Auckland.
