The building is in the same tradition of cubic classical revival forms expressed by others such as the Nicholas and Port Authority buildings, is one of the major emporiums built in Bourke Street in the period 1910-30 and is a significant landmark marking, together with the Post Office, the entry to the Bourke Street shopping centre.
