95-99 George Street, The Rocks, Heritage building in The Rocks, Sydney, Australia.

The three-story Victorian structure at 95-99 George Street features original storefronts with commercial spaces on the ground level and residential units above.

Built in 1868, this building stands on the former grounds of Sydney's first hospital, where assistant surgeon and convict architect Francis Greenway resided in the early 1800s.

The building represents a typical nineteenth-century urban development pattern where merchants lived above their shops in The Rocks district.

The structure maintains its original function with retail establishments at street level, while the New South Wales Heritage Register protects its historical features.

Frederick Wright Unwin purchased this property from Francis Greenway for £150 in 1832, later requiring tenant Michael Gannon to develop the land extensively.
