English: Circular Quay between 1889 and 1892. This image from a glass plate negative, produced between 1889 and 1892, shows five steam ferries at the wharves at Circular Quay in Sydney Cove. Along Alfred Street, behind the ferry wharves, are from left: an unidentified hotel offering 'whisky,' the three columned Water Police Court, the six storied Mort and Co. building demolished in 1959 for the AMP Building, the newly completed second Customs House building of 1887 and Watson's Paragon Hotel.
On the far left a double-ended paddle steamer is leaving the wharf. Her sign says 'Penny Ferry' and she is probably the 'Cammeray' (1884- c.1914 as punt). Next along is the Mosman and Neutral Bay ferry 'Lotus'. She is a single-ended steamer which worked from 1886 and was converted to a cargo boat in 1918. The smallest ferry here is the 'Lilac' which was built in 1879 for service between Sydney and the Rozelle Bay area. She was rebuilt in 1892. At the right is an unknown single-ended ferry and at the far right is the stern of the Watson's Bay ferry 'Courier' (1887-1930). Museum of Applied Arts & Sciences.
