Brooklyn Hotel, The Rocks, Heritage site and hotel in The Rocks, Australia

The Brooklyn Hotel features a four-story brick and sandstone facade with a central projecting bay and open balcony on George Street.

Built in 1912 under Walter Liberty Vernon's design, the Brooklyn Hotel stands on what was once the original Parade Ground of the Colony.

The building represents Federation Free Style architecture with its suspended awning, claimed among the first of this type in Australia.

Located at 229 George Street, the Brooklyn Hotel functions as a bar and restaurant, managed by Property NSW, a government agency.

The site connects to Robert Howe, son of George Howe, who printed the first book in Australia as a government printer in 1802.
