Rowe Street

full record »

Small street between Pitt and Castlereagh Streets originally named Brougham Place which was renamed for architect Thomas Rowe in 1875. It became a hub for Sydney's artistic and fashionable set in the mid-twentieth century before most of it was demolished in 1973 for the building of the MLC centre. Only a small portion off Pitt Street remains.
