Electoral district of Sydney-Pyrmont

Sydney-Pyrmont was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales, created in 1894, partly replacing the multi-member electorate of West Sydney.[1][2][3] It was named after and included the Sydney suburb of Pyrmont, consisting of the entire peninsula north of Fig Street and east of Wattle Street.[4][5] In 1904, it was largely replaced by Pyrmont, which also absorbed part of the abolished district of Sydney-Denison.[6]
