This weekend we went for a walk around Pyrmont.
A fascinating dip back into old Sydney, following The City of Sydney guide found here.

This is the guide we followed

This stunning view from Ways Terrace Flats, built by the City Council in the 1920s as workers’ affordable housing.

You know when you put 2 and 2 together and it clicks? Now we know why there’s a Quarryman Hotel at Pyrmont… we found the old quarry!

The original bit of the Electric Light station that remains near the Star casino.

Someone owns these old sites… yet they sit decrepitly, unused, uninhabitable.

Love the clothesline rope pulleys that come off everyone’s balcony or window at the Ways Terrace Flats.
