Harts Buildings, Heritage-listed hotel in The Rocks, Sydney, Australia
The two-story terrace building at 10-14 Essex Street features a crenellated parapet, classical Victorian details, and Federation Arts and Crafts architectural elements throughout its facade.
The property, part of Allotment 14 granted to Elizabeth Thompson in 1839, underwent development by Peter Francis Hart around 1880 and construction between 1890 and 1899.
Margaret Fulton, a noted cookery author, resided in this building from 1954 to 1968, adding to its connection with Australian cultural figures.
The building adapts to its trapezoidal site by stepping down Essex Street's slope, demonstrating effective use of challenging terrain in urban construction.
The structure's castellated skyline, formed by roof level balustrades and chimneys, creates a distinctive silhouette against The Rocks district backdrop.
