Once the site of sandstone quarries that supplied stone for some of the city&#8217;s earliest buildings, Pyrmont grew into a dense industrial and working-class neighbourhood before being transformed again \u2014 through a wave of adaptive reuse and new development \u2014 into one of inner Sydney&#8217;s most interesting places to live, work, and visit. This guided walk, run by the Australian Institute of Architects, reads the suburb as a kind of architectural time capsule: each building, each street, each surviving warehouse or terrace a document of the people and forces that shaped it.<\/p>\n<p>Starting from Union Square on Harris Street, the walk moves through Pyrmont&#8217;s historic fabric, pausing at significant buildings and sites to explore the stories behind them. Participants will encounter everything from sandstone remnants of the industrial era to award-winning contemporary architecture, with guides drawing connections across periods and styles to build a richer picture of how cities accumulate meaning over time.<\/p>\n<p>The walk is suitable for architects, urban designers, historians, and anyone with a curiosity about the built environment. Booking is essential \u2014 numbers are limited and the walk has proven popular in previous years.
