From Wikipedia - " In September 1894 a cable tram service opened, which operated from King Street in the city to Ocean Street in Edgecliff. The powerhouse driving it was located at Rushcutters Bay. Unlike other trams of the era which were driven by steam, the cable ran in a gutter between the tracks. The cars gripped the moving cable to advance and released it to stop. It operated until 1905 when the tram line was electrified." It looks like the electric tram wires are here, which would date this as c.1905.

Thank you for the information regarding the cable tram service which has now allowed us to date the photograph.

1928 Date on top left is also sort of confirmed by the Velie Cars sign on the building at left. I had never heard of Velie - "a brass era American automobile brand produced by the Velie Motors Corporation in Moline, Illinois from 1908 to 1928." - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velie.
