London Chartered Bank, Bourke Street

Original post 2 October 2018

The London Chartered Bank, architect Leonard Terry, 1871, a nice stone-built survivor on this prominent #BourkeStreet corner, probably because it stayed a bank until 1990. (Later #ESandAbank then ANZ). Plus it’s very nice. Pics 2 is 1929, @library_vic, and then a pic from the 1870s from @statelibrarynsw, showing that the ground floor corner was also chamfered originally, which was better actually.
