Darlinghurst, bank

The former ANZ bank building is located on the corner of Oxford Street and Brisbane Street, in the inner city suburb of Darlinghurst. This heritage listed building was designed by Ernest Scott & Green and built in the Federation Free Classical architectural style in 1911 for the Union Bank. It is now used as an office space and has the local member of the state parliament as a tenant on the ground floor.

  2. I always say the same thing, Jim...one of these days you'll run out of beautiful buildings to photograph! Meanwhile, this "Federation Free Classical" is new to me, and I like it!
    Thanks!

  3. You can tell this great building isn't 19th century because of the third floor. Sydney was thrusting upwards.
