Description: The study site was originally granted in 1835, as part of a larger parcel of land, to Samuel Lyons. Lyons was a successful businessman in Sydney. He sold the land of the study site quickly and did not develop it. The number 26 side of the study site remained mostly vacant until the 1990s. Prior to this it was used as yard space for a neighbouring property and held two outbuildings, one stone and one wooden. The number 28 side of the study site was first developed in the 1860s by Captain Hay. This building was a terrace house primarily described as having two storeys, constructed in brick with a shingled roof. The house at number 28 was occupied by various lessees throughout the late 19th century and into the 20th century. In the early 20th century the site was resumed by the NSW Government Sydney Harbour Trust. The site remained unchanged until the 1990s, when a three-storey boarding house was constructed by the Department of Housing.
