Sunlight filters into the White Bay Power Station workshop, illuminating a scene of quiet decay. Rusting tools and abandoned machinery sit amidst years of dust. This industrial heart once serviced Sydney's vital infrastructure until 1983.
Read the story behind this series →Size Guide
A chain block hangs from the ceiling on heavy links, motionless above a floor thick with debris. Whitewashed brick walls rise on both sides, paint flaking in wide patches to expose raw masonry beneath. Along the right wall, bench grinders sit bolted to a steel workbench, their surfaces dark with oxidation. Broken glass covers every surface. Light pours through large industrial windows, several panes missing entirely. At the far end, a raised glazed enclosure overlooks the corridor. White Bay Power Station operated from 1917 to 1983, supplying electricity to Sydney's tramway network and later the general grid. The workshop serviced turbines and auxiliary plant across the station. The building has stood decommissioned for over three decades.
