ASN Co building, Heritage office building in The Rocks, Sydney, Australia.
The ASN Co Building is a five-story office structure in The Rocks featuring polychrome brick walls combined with sandstone accents. Its facade along Hickson Road displays four warehouse bays and blends English with Dutch architectural elements.
The building was designed in 1885 by William Wardell and Walter Liberty Vernon as the headquarters for the Australasian Steam Navigation Company. Its construction was part of the early development of Sydney's first private wharf district.
Today the building serves as an art gallery, creating a cultural space where visitors can see works by a notable Australian artist. The exhibition spaces integrate seamlessly with the heritage architecture of the structure.
The building sits along Hickson Road and hosts a daily gallery with artwork and merchandise available for purchase. Visitors should allow time to explore the waterfront location and discover other heritage sites in the surrounding area.
The structure displays Dutch-style decorative gables that reflect its maritime heritage from Sydney's shipping era. These distinctive details remain visible on the facade and tell the story of the city's early port connections.
