139-153 Sussex Street, Sydney, Historic warehouse in Sydney Central Business District, Australia.

139-153 Sussex Street is a historic warehouse in Sydney's business district with a single-story facade facing the street. The structure expands to three full levels at the rear, reflecting the building approach needed to store goods within limited urban space.

Built in 1850, the structure served as a warehouse for goods connected to coastal trade via the nearby wharves at Darling Harbour. A major renovation in 1985 preserved the original street facade while modernizing interiors, transforming it into a hotel.

From the 1890s the Hunter River Farmers & Consumers Co-operative kept its warehouse, offices and agents here, likely using the Hunter River Steamship Company's wharfage next door. In the early 20th century Gray & Co ran warehouse and office facilities on the site. The rendered brickwork and iron roof remain visible.

The former warehouse stands at 139–153 Sussex Street, between the Darling Harbour wharves and the CBD business streets, and is now occupied by the Four Points Hotel. Only the facade survives from the 1850s building, so look for the rendered brickwork and original windows and shopfronts at street level; the three-storey rear section is not visible from Sussex Street.

The Central Warehouses at Nos. 139–151 survive alongside the Corn Exchange at Nos. 173–185 as some of the last remnants of the Sussex Street warehousing and commercial quarter that served Sydney's trading sector in the mid-to-late 19th century. The 1985 hotel redevelopment kept only the facade.
