NRS-15345 | Photographs of Sydney

Although the prime interest in this series is the harbour, its environs and infrastructure, photographs of inner-city housing are also included. The series consists of an album with loose photographs between the covers. The earliest photographs in this album are a series of undated views of the harbour by the photographer, Milton Kent. There are no captions. Later photographs show housing and infrastructure mostly in the vicinity of the harbour. Most of these are dated and some have captions. Loose inside the covers of this album are photographs of the harbour and foreshore land. There is also a series of photographs of housing at The Rocks (dated September, 1962) and of the Sydney Morning Herald Medal for preservation and Restoration of Historic Buildings in Sydney, third prize 1963 awarded to Late Colonial Terraces, Argyle Place, Sydney.
