Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Format: Albumen photoprint


Notes: As a cable tram trundles up King Street towards Queens Square, a crowd occupies both sides of the roadway. They have assembled outside the Daily Telegraph office, where the latest news was posted each day. Judging by this photograph, it is not surprising that the 1909 Royal Commission on the Improvement of Sydney was critical of the traffic chaos on Sydney’s narrow streets.
