Become a part of Sydney’s history.

 

Location: This building is situated in the heart of The Rocks precinct, which is currently undergoing a strategic revitalisation, breathing new life into the area and attracting Sydneysiders, office workers and tourists alike. The Rocks is arguably one of the most iconic Australian destinations. 

Description: As at 1 April 2011, the terrace façade at 32–36 Gloucester Street and its site are of State heritage significance for their historical and scientific cultural values. The site and remnant structure are also of State heritage significance for their contribution to The Rocks area which is of State heritage significance in its own right.

The site of the terrace façade at 32–36 Gloucester Street has historical significance due to its continual occupation since the 1850s. It is aesthetically significant for its contribution to the streetscape as demonstrated by the surviving scale and form of the original building. The façade is part of a row of terrace house façades at 26-72 Gloucester Street (excluding Nos. 42–44, demolished in 1985), which remain basically unaltered in external appearance since their construction. As part of this row the façade at 32-36 Gloucester Street demonstrates “a rare juxtaposed study of the English terrace house form and its evolution as translated in Australia”, (as identified by the National Trust). The changes which Terrace Façade survived have the ability to demonstrate a significant part of the story of The Rocks over time, including the civic improvements by the NSW Government, including the 1980s redevelopment of the site to create an office block, when the Government involvement resulted in the design that incorporated the Terrace Façade into the new structure. These changes demonstrate various attitudes to heritage conservation policy and practice in different periods, and demonstrate the impact of resident and community action on the Government policies for the retention of buildings in The Rocks.
