Statement of Significance

The Administration Centre has been the centre of civic activity for more than three decades. It is a pleasant example of 1960s Modernism on a small scale.

Physical Description

Is a rough, red-brown brick and concrete building with a flat roof. Its simple horizontal and vertical lines are typical of 1960s Modernism. The building has been extended in the same materials and style. The interior has been extensively renovated. The extensions have left the major facades almost intact, and are highly sympathetic, so that the building retains its authenticity.

History

This building was designed by a renowned architect whio lived the second half of his life in Mosman Park.
