Description
Downtown Sydney looking along York Street toward the Town Hall, completed in 1890. On the left is the Queen Victoria Building, now referred to as QVB. This Romanesque Revival Building was designed as a shopping centre and was completed in 1898, but was later used for other purposes.
It takes up an entire city block, is 30m wide by 190m long, and is bounded by Market, George, Druitt, and York Streets.
It has been desribed by Pierre Cardin as 'the most beautiful shopping centre in the world'.
In 1984 it was completely refurbished as a shopping centre with more than 200 shops.
