East Sydney is a small inner-city locality in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is situated immediately east of the Sydney central business district, adjacent to Hyde Park.
East Sydney is technically part of the suburb of Darlinghurst in the City of Sydney local government area. The suburb remains primarily a residential area, and council proposals for street closures in 2005 mean it will probably stay that way. Stanley Street and Crown Street feature many restaurants with different cuisines. Italian is the most popular type, as East Sydney was Sydney's primary Italian community in the 1960s and 1970s and the area is still sometimes called Little Italy.
