Sydney - Argyle Street
On Argyle Street, which runs at right angles to George Street, are the Rocks Police Station (1879), the Orient Hotel (1844) and the Argyle Centre, with new shops modeled on old ones. The Argyle Cut is a tunnel through the rock (constructed 1845-59) linking Sydney Cove with Millers Point (Explorer Bus stop). In this area are some well-preserved 19th c. houses and the Garrison Church of 1844. On the south side of Argyle Place is Observatory Hill, with the Observatory (1858) and the National Trust Centre (built in 1815 as a military hospital). In Kent Street (corner of Argyle Street) is the Lord Nelson Hotel (1834).
