These flats were built by the City Council in the
1920s as workers’ housing. They were designed by Leslie Wilkinson, whose architectural contribution to
Sydney continues to be commemorated by an annual lecture at Sydney University. Walk through for a view
across to the city.
Scott Street
This little group of 1870s houses with corner shop was supposed to be demolished for a
factory back in the 1950s. They were then bought by the City Council, which
also had grand plans for the precinct in the 1970s, but squatters moved in,
politics took hold and eventually the buildings were saved. Artists have painted them over the years.
