Newtown Precinct - King StreetSydneys Bohemian Centrepiece The heartland of Sydney's vibrant bohemian culture, the Newtown Precinct is an eclectic mix of alternative cultures, ethnicity, sexuality and lifestyles. The precinct provides a fascinating haven for the great diversity of its inhabitants: from academic professionals and students of the neighboring colleges and universities to the punks, poets and artists, alongside original post war European immigrants. The precinct's spirit of acceptance and tolerance has produced a unique culture in Sydney and created a diverse street life of these myriad cultures. This unique atmosphere has become a magnet for visitors, tourists and other Sydney-siders. The Newtown precinct is centered on famous King Street, part of a thoroughfare which stretches from Broadway to St Peters. 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. The St Peters end of King St is renowned for its quirky specialist shops. |

Classic SydneyKing Street, Newtown is being fast tracked for placement on the State Heritage List. Already listed on the Register of the National Estate, King Street is jam packed with some of Sydney's finest examples of Victorian, 1930's art deco - especially the many and varied pubs - Queen Anne and Italianate architecture. Most of Newtown's imaginatively decorated shops, restaurants, cafes and bars feature the distinctive designs of each of these eras. Take a wander around the backstreets to enjoy some of the glorious residential buildings, or visit one of Sydney's original churches, St Stephens. (For those with a morbid fascination, the church grounds is one of the eeriest graveyards you'll ever see!) Newtown is one of the most vibrant and fascinating suburbs in Australia, home to many students, artisans and musicians who take great pride in calling this inner city gem their home. |
