Ballarat City Council Offices, SW Cnr Grenville and Lewis Streets, Ballarat - Physical Description 1
This building was constructed for the Ballarat Water Supply in 1884-86 and was first occupied on the 25th June 1886. It was built by Llewellyn & Edwards Contractors for [2156 to the design of Caselli & Figgis Architects. The original building, visible in an early photo, extended only 5 bays along Grenville Street with the fourth and fifth bay of One storey only. In 1926 these two bays were increased to two storeys in height; in 1936 an additional 3 bays were added to the Grenville street elevation; and in 1962 the new extensions were added along Lewis Street.
'This building is a fine example of consistently detailed Renaissance Revival architecture, with a rusticated base course and piano nobile first floor.
There have been several alterations and modifications undertaken, but these do not seriously detract from the building: the chimneys have been simplified, a door relocated, and the cement render facade painted.
This building provides an important corner streetscape element. It is substantially intact and is in good condition.Ballarat City Council Offices, SW Cnr Grenville and Lewis Streets, Ballarat - Integrity
