Stanley Street, East Sydney

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stanley St is a small street in the East Sydney district of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is primarily residential, but was the centre of Sydney's original Italian community in the 1950's and 1960's, and was subsequently part of Sydney's first "Little Italy". May Italian restaurants and cafes still line the street, and the street is home to the annual Primo Italiano festival.

The Bondi via Paddington tramway ran down Stanley St until its closure and replacement by buses in 1960.
