Technological Museum building Ultimo

Ornate symmetrical three storey building which, as the Technological Museum and later the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences, exhibited examples of the skills and industry of the colony. Though the collection rapidly outgrew the building it was not relocated until the Powerhouse Museum was constructed in the 1980s. The building was then converted for educational purposes for the Sydney Institute of TAFE.
