Boom times. Terrace houses built at the height of the city's first real estate mania, before the boom collapsed in the Panic of 1890, leading to an almost decade long economic depression. Also the "Centenary Year", 100 years since white settlement. Things were looking fabulous, until they weren't. Darlington.

Former Methodist chapel (1892). Non-conformist style church building, saved from dereliction. Facade restored, a major extension out the back and converted to small über-lux apartments. There are no less than six foundation stones, all laid on the same day, scattered around the base of the thing. One of the very few buildings to be started or completed after the collapse of Sydney's first real estate boom in the Panic of 1890, which led to an almost decade long economic depression. Hard times. Glebe.

Abandoned late Victorian-era corner produce store. Got that one up just in the nick of time, before the Panic of 1890 killed the city's first real estate boom, which produced an almost decade long economic depression. Can't see this one being saved. Hard times. Marrickville.

Well maintained original "Sydney Lace" wrought iron balcony work on this 1890 corner terrace house, with a thick build up of paint. Would have been among the last of its type built, after a run-away real estate boom collapsed in the Panic of 1890, leading to an almost decade long economic depression, after which the building style fell out of favour. Dulwich Hill.

Some well maintained original "Sydney Lace' wrought iron balcony railings and trim; very popular on late 1880's-era terrace houses that went up during the city's first real estate boom, before the Panic of 1890 set in, after which virtually nothing was built for a decade, and the style fell out of fashion. With a winter dormant frangipani tree. Balmain.

The name is lost in the mists of time. Most likely a former grocery & general goods store. Now a ceramic art gallery, with an apartment on top and one out the back. Darlington.

A shocker of a paint job. A rare 1890's building - hardly any were built that decade after the Panic of 1890 saw Sydney property prices collapse, sparking a severe years-long economic depression with a string of bank failures. Balmain
