One of the most popular pubs for business people in the area is in one of North Sydney's prettiest old sandstone buildings. The Greenwood was once a boy's high school teaching technical subjects. Its vaulted ceiling halls now house bars and a good restaurant. It forms part of the attractive Greenwood Plaza shopping complex which is directly opposite North Sydney railway station, with direct access underground. A large parking station is under the complex, off the highway.
Street parking is very limited.
If you are staying in the area, Greenwood is a good place to shop for essentials as well as boutique lines. It has a good delicatessen and a fish shop with fresh, quality seafood. The North Sydney area has a few good hotels which provide an alternative to Sydney city accommodation, particularly if the visitor has business to do in the area. It has a frequent train service to the city, and plentiful buses. But traffic in peak times is really bad and can add substantially to the cost.
