Hydraulic Pump Station, Heritage pump station in Haymarket, Sydney, Australia.
The Hydraulic Pump Station on Little Pier Street features three stories with Italianate architecture, cast iron water tanks, and accumulator cylinders.
Constructed between 1889 and 1891, this facility served as the central point for Sydney's hydraulic power network, enabling taller building construction throughout the city.
The station represents the industrial evolution of Sydney, transforming from a water pumping facility into a modern establishment known as Pumphouse Bar and Restaurant.
Located at 17 Little Pier Street in Haymarket, the building maintains its original exterior while functioning as a contemporary hospitality venue.
The pump station contains specialized machinery that allowed buildings to reach eight stories during an era when three to four levels were standard construction limits.
