An Elegant Post-Federation Map of Sydney’s Iconic Foreshore Reserves
This beautifully detailed historical map of Sydney Harbour, produced by the Department of Lands in 1919, offers a rare and refined view of Sydney just after the First World War. It highlights the public reserves along the foreshore, areas designated for recreation, and the access routes that connect them—giving us a fascinating insight into early urban planning and public land use in New South Wales.
Compiled, drawn, and printed by the Department of Lands in Sydney, this map is both a practical reference and a decorative masterpiece, capturing the evolving shape of the harbour city during a transformative era in its development.

-
Illustrates the early 20th-century infrastructure of Sydney's inner districts
-
