UNION BANK OF AUSTRALIA (FORMER) - Physical Description 1
The Brunswick Union Bank is a three storey Italianate brick building. The classical composition of the symmetrical front facade is heavily elaborated. Decorative pediments mark each of the two front entrances. A pediment also appears centrally on the parapet, flanked by balustrading and festoons. First and second floor windows are divided by ornamented pilasters, and the floors are marked by heavy moulded string courses.
The moulded ornament on this building is relatively intact, but many of the windows have been replaced, and the entire facade has been painted a pale pink colour.
