Pyrmont, warehouse

The former warehouse was the Royal Edward Victulating Yard Building C, located along Pirrama Road on Darling Island, in the inner west suburb of Pyrmont. It was designed by Walter Liberty Vernon and built in 1915 in the Federation architectural style. It was used by the Royal Australian Navy and is now the Sydney headquarters for the Seven Network, one of Australia's three major commercial television networks. The city skyline can be seen in the distance.

    It is these kinds of structures that make a city worth visiting.
