He actually lived here for 10 years in Elizebeth Bay

David Bowie lived in an apartment at Elizabeth Bay, Sydney for approximately 10 years up until 1992. His Sydney apartment was used as a base for month-long adventures to the outback and far north Queensland rainforests throughout the 1980s.

When David Bowie visited Australia in 1983, the superstar had a blunt assessment of the nation. “He described Australia as one of the most racist countries in the world,” Indigenous man Daniel Browning told SBS News.
