Summary

Description

Stone dome roof. Roman Doric style. Octagonal on plan, or square with splayed corners; and porticos on each of the long sides. Broad pilasters at the corners, Doric entablature with deep cornice and attic above, on top of which is a low drum and a shallow stone dome. Pedimented Roman Doric porticos with carved stone relief panels above and splayed corners with four large bronze figures by Albert Toft, depicting the armed services.

Seen here from Century Way the nearest bronze figure is hidden by the potted palm. Nowadays the hall is dwarfed by the blue glass bulk of 1754670, with the International Convention Centre visible on the right.
