Life in Potts Point
The everyday things that make tenants want to live here and stay here.
Eat & drink
Macleay Street carries the suburb's dining and cafe culture from morning coffee through to dinner. On weekends the markets around the El Alamein Fountain in Fitzroy Gardens bring the neighbourhood out early.
Green space
Fitzroy Gardens gives the neighbourhood its green centre, with the El Alamein Fountain at its heart. Below, the harbour and Woolloomooloo wharf are an easy walk for a morning along the water.
Getting around
Kings Cross station makes the daily commute simple, with trains running straight into the city. Most of the neighbourhood sits within a short walk of the platform, so many residents skip the car entirely.
The homes
Housing here means apartments: art deco classics that rank among Sydney's most loved buildings, alongside studios and smaller boutique blocks.
