Tales of Disappearing Traders

If you know Sydney's inner west you will recognise these places in an instant. The Ming On warehouse, green with a decorative double fin sprouting up from the roof. The pink and mauve Marie Louise Salon on Enmore Road. The big old former metalworkers workshop at the beginning of King Street which used to house Gould Books. Each is a local landmark, capturing a slice of suburban history in and behind its facade.
