Broadway, Grace Brothers department store

The former Grace Brothers department store is located along Broadway on the corner of Bay Street, in the inner city suburb of Glebe. It was built in 1904 in the Federation/Edwardian architectural style. Grace Brothers vacated their Broadway store in 1992 and the building was restored and redeveloped in 1998 as part of Broadway Shopping Centre, a shopping mall with retail space, cinemas, restaurants and car park.
