Central Railway Station (Old) [including Exhibition Building], before August 1906

from State Library of New South Wales

beachcomber australia said:
Surely not right to call this "Central"?
beachcomber australia said:
I think it is well before 1906 - more like 1901. I realize that sound picky, but nevertheless ... 1906 panorama showing Central and the old Station, with Devonshire Street 'filled in' (photo 3) - (open in new tabs) - acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemLarge.aspx?itemID=176391 acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemLarge.aspx?itemID=176392 acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemLarge.aspx?itemID=176393 acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemLarge.aspx?itemID=176394

i can never imagine Central Station ever looking like this.
iain stuart said:
Certainly before 1901 when the excavations for Central began.
Linda Smee said:
This is the "old" Central/Redfern station not today's Central or today's Redfern station in Lawson St :)

Cleveland Street - in course of reconstruction

Phew! Took me a while to find this - at the junction of Abercrombie Street and Cleveland Street. GoogleMapsStreetView - goo.gl/maps/fQtwz See also this map at original size for the tram routes -
Matthew Perkins said:
Walk/run/cycle this junction most days - great to see it so familiar from a previous era!

Also on Historypin - www.historypin.com/channels/view/8934049/#tab-home|map/in... (Boo hoo it doesn't link to the photo, but look for Cleveland Street ... )
Mich said:
Lanfranchi's alley on the right. I am not quite convinced, isn't Cleveland St between Abercrombie and City Road running down and up ? This looks too flat.

Building at far left was the local Post Office. Its façade has since been incorporated in a modern apartment block.

Newtown? - SMH 21/12/1903 p.10, Col. 4 (under "G") - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/14588158 " G.W. HORSLER, Hat, Block, and Frame Maker, Modeller and Shape Designer, .... .... .. 1 Whately-street and 54 Wilson-street, Newtown, Syd. " The two addresses back on to each other and now a vacant block or, um, parklet - Google Street View - maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geo... I have a hunch this image is in one of the Plague Albums (1900) - unfortunately the SLNSW website is undergoing maintenance. Maybe the Newtown address is where Mr Horsler moved to, as the ad is 1903?

A search for "Horsler" in the Index to Unassisted Inward Passenger Lists to Victoria 1852-1923 - 210.8.122.120/indexes/index_search.asp?searchid=23 - at the Public Records of Victoria, yields the following - Family Name HORSLER First Name G W MR Age 35 Month NOV Year 1901 Ship OMRAH Port B Fiche 677 Page 006 Of course he may not be the same G. W. Horsler, but I reckon it's highly likely he is - which would mean he wasn't in Sydney at the time of the Plague.
