Grace Building, Heritage hotel in Sydney Central Business District, Australia

The Grace Building rises at 77 York Street with a Federation Skyscraper Gothic design, featuring cream terra cotta facades and pointed windows across its structure.

The Grace Brothers established this building in 1930 as their retail headquarters, and during World War II it served as General MacArthur's U.S. forces command center.

The building incorporates Gothic architectural elements inspired by Chicago's Tribune Tower while maintaining its distinct Australian commercial heritage through preserved Art Deco interiors.

The hotel contains 387 rooms, including Superior King and Premium Family accommodations, positioned within walking distance of Queen Victoria Building and Wynyard Light Rail Stop.

Underground tunnels beneath York Street, constructed before World War II, connected the building to other critical infrastructure points throughout Sydney.
