Statement of Significance
Given the unusually near intact state of the 1924-5 office block, this integrity factor alone gives both architectural and potentially historical significance to the whole building. As well there is the notable streetscape contribution to the earlier building which in turn is evocative of the profession's concern with context at that time (2)
Significant individual spaces commence with the council chamber, main foyers and passageways (both levels) and stairway. Secondary areas are the historically representative only office spaces, with the general office area (under chamber) the most significant among them. Toilet areas are also significant because of their high integrity to their construction period i.e. white tiles, marble urinal slabs.
