Site analysis
Site: Newtown is one of the most culture rich cities in Sydney. It's diversity of ethnics, sexuality and lifestyle has allowed it's inhabitants to feel free to be themselves, creating an accepting atmosphere, and a unique street life to those in the area. Newtown, is considered as Sydney's Bohemian centerpiece.
King Street, is the main roadway which runs through Newtown, starting at St Peters to Broadway. This streetscape, listed on the Register of the National Estate is perhaps Sydney's largest and best example of 19th century commercial street architecture and includes a vast array of styles from high Victorian gothic, Queen Anne revival and Italianate. This colonnade of buildings now houses Newtown's restaurants, cafes, bars, hotels, retail stores, fashion designers, bookshops and food shops.
