Its not every day, that ones inner city, harbourside hamlet (Pyrmont) is party to underbelly type real life drama, however yesterday it was. The sight of heavily armed policeman evacuating laneways and streets around the corner from one’s favourite cafes, was trully frightening.

Yes Pyrmont Village was front and center yesterday in a real life scenes mimicking Melbourne’s seedy and violent underworld drama on TV’s Nine Network.

The contrast between, the quiet, civilised art festival on the weekend where Jazz, and creativity mingled was a far cry from today’s unheralded violence.
