Chevron (Hilton) Sydney

[tombarnes]

For some reason, I have been fascinated with the Chevron (Hilton) Hotel in Kings Cross. It was built in 1960 by Stanley Korman, a rather notorious developer. The hotel was THE place for years until its demolition in 1984-85. It was replaced by the Hotel Nikko, later the Landmark Parkroyal and now the Icon Sydney. I have had great difficulty finding much in the way of pictures of the place. While there is a large collection of images available at PictureAustralia, many of them do not show the hotel's features terribly well. Has anyone got any images of this place? For a cultural (certainly not architectural) landmark, there seems to be very little out there.

Here is one of the few images I have found...

The image collection from Picture Australia won't link here...
