THE TROCADERO: NEWTOWN ICON, READY FOR ITS NEXT CHAPTER
RWC Sydney City Fringe and BresicWhitney are proud to offer 69-77 King Street, NEWTOWN, for sale.
An extraordinary piece of Sydney history occupying a landmark position on King Street, the Trocadero is one of Newtown's most significant buildings - a rare late-Victorian commercial complex of impressive scale. Originally opened in 1889 and purpose-built as a roller-skating rink, it was known as the largest and most elegant rink in Australia, combining a skating hall with shops, billiards, club rooms, baths, hairdressing salons, cafés and entertainment spaces. The King Street frontage is a rare Sydney example of Victorian Flemish commercial architecture with free-style Gothic detailing. While the former skating rink has previously been sensitively adapted for commercial use, the upper levels have not been formally used since 1995 and retain much of their original room configuration and architectural fabric.
An opportunity to participate in the next chapter of one of King Street's defining icons in a building of genuine rarity, presence and immense adaptive re-use potential.
North King Street is where Newtown begins, rising from City Road on the edge of the University of Sydney. Its run of Victorian shopfronts houses boutiques, bookshops, cafés, wine bars, pubs and the Dendy cinema, busy with students, academics, medical professionals and locals from morning to night. The University, RPA, the Charles Perkins Centre and Chris O'Brien Lifehouse are minutes away within the Tech Central precinct. Buses on King Street and City Road run to Broadway, Central and the CBD (approx. 4km), with Macdonaldtown (650m) and Newtown (900m) stations an easy walk.

- State-significant heritage building
- Exceptional framework for adaptive reuse
- Prominent position in North Newtown
- Adjacent to Sydney University
- Significant 1,113sqm Inner Sydney parcel
