The Gothic Bank
Considered the finest secular Gothic-Revival building in Australia, this building was completed in 1887 and is renowned for the splendour of its interior.
Today, it is the headquarters of the ANZ World Headquarters and home to the ANZ Banking Museum (temporarily closed), which tells the story of Australia's banking heritage through displays of currency, money boxes, office machines, firearms, gold-mining equipment and uniforms.
Originally erected as the head office of the English, Scottish and Australian Bank, the top two floors were the residence of George Verdon, general manager of the bank.
The bank expanded in 1922 to occupy adjacent buildings on both streets. In 1990, all three buildings were extensively restored.
