Trade in sugar began within the first decades of settlement in Sydney. The site at 138-140 Pitt Street was for many years the city's first sugar exchange. In the late 1870s the present building was constructed as a hotel for a Sydney businessman, William Mears. It had four floors and sixteen rooms and was made of brick and shingle. It was first managed by Edward Trickett, a world champion sculler, and known as "Trickett's Hotel". It was later renamed "Kings Hotel". It was damaged by fire in April 1914, but reopened and operated as a hotel under that name until its closure on 30 June 1973.
