The Rocks, New York Hotel

This heritage listed building is located along George Street at The Rocks. The former New York Hotel was built in 1908 in the Federation Free architectural style. It has a five storey tower section and a lower three storey section splayed at a slight angle to follow the change in the alignment of the street. In the late 1980s, a large commercial building called the DFS Galleria, was erected behind this building with the facades of a number of buildings and shopfronts incorporated into the complex.
