Jessie Street Gardens

The Jessie Street Gardens is an urban park in Loftus Street, in the Sydney central business district, near Circular Quay, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

The park is named in honour of Jessie Street, a leading Australian women's rights activist.

The park was developed in 1989 from empty land remaining after the demolition of the Goldsborough Mort wool brokers building.
