Argyle Stores, Bonded warehouse in The Rocks, Australia.

The Argyle Stores complex consists of multiple sandstone and brick structures featuring Georgian and Victorian architectural elements along Argyle Street.

Built between 1826 and 1878, the building started as a customs house under Captain John Piper before Frederick Unwin completed its eastern wing in 1829.

The building reflects the maritime commercial evolution of Sydney, from its early days as a customs facility to its current mix of offices and dining venues.

The structure now houses offices, function rooms, and restaurants across multiple levels, with access available through passageways framed by sandstone arches.

The building contains massive hand-carved timber beams supporting sandstone cellars, representing colonial-era Australian construction techniques.
