Union Bank

Architecture

OAMARU, TYNE STREET

This former Union Bank of Australia was designed by Forrester and Lemon and built 1878-9. It is one of the earliest examples of the Venetian palazzo style of commercial architecture in New Zealand. The Union Bank was the forerunner of the ANZ Bank.

Today the building echoes with the activities of the
amaru Squash and Badminton Club.
