Broken Hill : Municipal buildings
Municipal buildings, Broken Hill. Buildings from left - Courthouse (only part can be seen), Technical College, Police Station, Town Hall and Post Office. The red-brick Post Office, at the corner of Argent and Chloride Street, is one of the oldest buildings in Broken Hill being built in 1892. It was designed by James Barnet, with its massive turret capped by a decorative mansard roof and enveloped by a footpath verandah and corner balcony. It was opened in April 1892 but did not have a clock until 1909. Next door is the town's architectural highlight, the extraordinarily ornate Town Hall which was opened by Sir Henry Parks in 1891 for local government and other special events. By 1973 the City Council were going to knock the building down but due to local pressure it was decided to restore it. The restored Town Hall was opened on 13 March 1976; its front facade section only has been retained. Next to it is the modest Police station built in 1890. Next door is the Federation-style Technical College built in 1901 with its large, arched windows and ornamented entrance. Built to meet the needs of the mining industry it now also houses a museum. Part of the Courthouse built in 1889 can be seen on the left of the photograph. It was designed by James Barnet. In the grounds is a sculptured bronze war memorial made by noted artist Charles Webb. A steam tram with passengers milling around can be seen in the front of the photograph.
