Modern Street View
I had a lot of fun getting the details right on this one. The buildings shown here are condemned, and the one that replaced them is still there today. The factory at rear is Ah Sing furniture, which is fitting as now the whole area is Chinatown. Originally, Chinese businesses were centred around George St near Circular Quay. When the street was resumed and widened around 1910, most moved to the Haymarket area.
