In the 1860s the street housed the glove shop of 'Sharp Lewis' whose large gloved hand swung over the footpath. Next door were the 'Parrot Brothers', who supplied footwear to the people of Sydney.[3] The site of the old Norwich Chambers on the corner of Bligh Street was once occupied by a dentist named Smythe and later was the office of the solicitor William Barker.[4] It was built in 1886 and demolished in 1922.[5] The heritage-listed office building Perpetual Trustee Company Building at 33–39 Hunter Street is the only example of Edwardian architecture on Hunter Street.[6]

Originally two-way throughout, in February 1987 the Pitt to George Street section was converted to one-way in a westerly direction.[7][8][9]
