History

The current spelling of Woolloomooloo is derived from the name of the first homestead in area, Woolloomooloo House, built by the first landowner John Palmer.  In the 1840s the farm land was subdivided into what is now Woolloomooloo, Darlinghurst and parts of Surry Hills. Originally the area saw affluent residents building grand houses, many with spectacular gardens, attracted by the bay. The area slowly started to change after expensive houses were built in Elizabeth Bay and further east and a road was needed from Sydney.
