The City of Sydney Council plans to heritage-list three historic gay bars on Oxford Street: the Oxford Hotel, Palms, and Universal nightclub. This move aims to recognize their significance to the LGBTQIA+ community. The council unanimously endorsed the proposal in December 2022, which is now under review by the NSW government. If approved, public feedback will be sought. Additionally, the council is exploring heritage listing for other LGBTQIA+ sites, including Trade Club Sydney and The Bookshop. Other recognized sites include the Darlinghurst Police Station and the Mardi Gras parade route.
