    Yikes! That's an interesting one. Guessing it is looking west east up Bettington Street towards the Observatory. Or not ??

    Yes! See - www.records.nsw.gov.au/image/4481_a026_000186 (October 1901)

    The shadow of the chimneys and dormer windows of these houses were noted before by pellethepoet on this "c.1910" photo of the Kindergarten across the street. Which means the houses survived for quite a while after 1901.

    I think this from St Phillips Church tower looking NW, hence the height. Not from Observatory Hill as described in the Persistent URL. Most of the features, including the Australian Gas Light Company (AGL) gasometer, show up on the 1890 John Sands map - www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm1280-s1-sd&rg...

    I agree with 'beachcomberaustralia' - definitely from St Philip's Tower. Interesting that the AGL site is still controversial in 2011 - over who has to pay for the cleanup before Barangaroo can proceed!

    Second thoughts (17 months later) - it might have been from the Grosvenor Hotel at the end of Grosvenor Street , or Charlotte Street on this better 1895 map (interactive) - www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm3443-sd&rgn=0...
