Waterview Wharf Workshops, Maritime heritage complex in Balmain East, Australia.

Waterview Wharf Workshops encompasses multiple industrial buildings positioned along the eastern shore of Balmain peninsula, featuring traditional maritime architectural elements and waterfront structures.

The site operated as a vital ship repair facility for the Adelaide Steamship Company from 1900 to 1939, following its initial use as Burns timber yard from 1880.

The workshops influenced the development of labor unions in Balmain during the early 1900s as one of the main employers utilizing casual maritime workers.

Located at 37 Nicholson Street in Balmain East, the property now houses design studios, film production companies, and professional services firms.

The industrial complex contains substantial archaeological evidence that demonstrates the evolution of maritime repair techniques and engineering practices through different historical periods.
