161 Sussex Street, Sydney, Heritage site in Sydney central business district, Australia

161 Sussex Street is a heritage-listed site in Sydney's central business district, now part of the Hyatt Regency Sydney/Four Points by Sheraton development. The former hotel forecourt was demolished in 2016, leaving a heritage marker on the driveway: a light grey stone strip incised with "LINC & CO", "HOUSE & OFFICE" and the number "161". A 26-storey tower designed by COX Architecture was added.

The forecourt at 161 Sussex Street was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999. In 2016 the heritage-listed hotel forecourt was demolished to make way for the Hyatt Regency Sydney/Four Points development; only a heritage marker on the driveway remains. The site was redeveloped by COX Architecture, which conserved the listed site and built an adjacent 26-storey tower with 222 guest rooms, a 3,667-square-metre convention centre and office space.

The only surviving element is a heritage marker set into the hotel driveway, a light grey stone strip incised with "LINC & CO", "HOUSE & OFFICE" and the number "161". It recalls the Linc & Co house and office that stood here before the 2016 demolition for the Hyatt Regency Sydney/Four Points development.

The heritage marker is set into the driveway of the hotel forecourt at 161 Sussex Street, in the Sydney central business district. Look for the light grey stone strip with incised lettering reading "LINC & CO" and "HOUSE & OFFICE" above the number 161, between darker paving slabs. The surrounding hotel and convention areas serve guests; the marker itself is seen from the driveway.

The heritage listing covers a forecourt, not a building: the hotel forecourt was demolished in 2016 for the Hyatt Regency Sydney/Four Points development. What survives is a heritage marker set into the driveway, a light grey stone strip incised with "LINC & CO", "HOUSE & OFFICE" and the number 161.
