Ultimo Sewage Pumping Station, Industrial heritage site in Ultimo, Australia
The Federation Free Style pumping station features a two-story brick structure with stone dressings, round-arched openings, and classical symmetrical design elements.
The New South Wales Department of Public Works constructed this facility between 1899 and 1902 to address wastewater management issues in late 19th century Sydney.
This station represents early industrial engineering achievements in Sydney, demonstrating the transition towards modern urban sanitation infrastructure in Australian cities.
Located on William Henry Street, the station continues to function as a low-level sewage pumping facility while maintaining its original external architectural features.
The station operated as a control center for fourteen other pumping stations until 1918, marking its central role in Sydney's early sewerage network.
