This precinct, positioned between Barangaroo, Observatory Hill and the Sydney Harbour Bridge, contains a variety of architectural styles from early Georgian houses and tiny workmen's cottages, to the grander 19th century Victorian terraces.

With much of the area given over to public housing in the 20th century, recent changes in ownership are again breathing life into these early buildings, although the need to ensure any renovation is done sensitively remains imperative.

[1] The terrace was the House of Providence rented by the Sisters of Saint Joseph from 30 July 1880; Mary MacKillop resided at the premises from February–March 1881.

Construction: Rendered masonry walls, slate roof to main body of house, corrigated galvanised iron to rear wing.

Handsome tuck-pointing on Kent Street facade, recently restored by expert craftsmen using authentic materials.
