It is a unit in The Horizon, a 43‑storey residential high‑rise on Forbes Street. The tower was completed in 1998 and is one of the first tall buildings in the traditionally low‑rise area of Darlinghurst.

What amenities does The Horizon offer to its residents?

The development includes a swimming pool, tennis court, gym, and landscaped gardens, as well as six levels of car parks. Residents also have access to the building’s lower apartment blocks and common areas.

How far is the property from the Sydney central business district?

Darlinghurst lies immediately east of the Sydney CBD, so the property is only a few minutes’ walk away, roughly 1–2 km from the city centre.

What public transport options are available nearby?

Several bus routes run along Oxford Street, including routes 333, 352, 373, 396 and 440, providing connections to Circular Quay and Bondi Beach. The nearest train stations are Kings Cross and Museum, both just beyond the northern and western borders of Darlinghurst.

What cultural or historic attractions are within walking distance?

Within 0.2 km you’ll find Darlinghurst Gaol, the Qtopia LGBTQIA+ museum, the National Art School, Darlinghurst Courthouse, Taylor Square, and the Sydney Jewish Museum. The area also hosts the annual Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade on Oxford Street.

Why is The Horizon considered architecturally significant?

Designed by renowned Australian architect Harry Seidler, the building features a distinctive scalloped concrete façade. Its construction sparked debate for introducing a high‑rise silhouette into a predominantly low‑rise neighbourhood.

Is there any nearby park or green space for recreation?

Green Park is located just about 0.2 km away, offering a small urban green space for walking and leisure. Albert Sloss Reserve is also within a short walk, providing additional open‑space amenities.
