One of my favourite images of Sydney. I discovered this image at PHM about a year ago when researching an exhibition I was working on. I still loving looking at all the details captured in it. Amazing to see these images of Sydney during that period and return to the spot they were taken to see how the city has changed.

It's probably worth mentioning that Peapes was a classy men's store which lingered on for many years, probably due to it's proximity to the later-to-be-constructed Wynyard railway station ramp. The actual direction of this photo is looking SSW, 'down' George Street towards Town Hall and away from Circular Quay.

Between December 1899 (when the electric trams began in George St.) and 1904 (electric street lighting, not evident in this photo). Peapes (& Shaw) had an earlier store across George Street at No. 324 (that all rhymes!) -

It looks like it would have been an exciting place to live back then, as it is now. Everything is big.
