The Captain Cook Hotel in Millers Point features a distinct, cream-colored facade with green trim that stands out against the brickwork of the surrounding terrace houses. Built in eighteen seventy-four, it served the wharf laborers who worked the busy docks nearby. During the nineteen seventies, the hotel became the base for local residents fighting to save their historic neighborhood from government demolition plans. They held nightly meetings in the public bar, eventually forcing the city to protect the area’s architecture.
