Southland Times Building

The Southland Times Building has been home of The Southland Times for 100 years of its 150 year history. The Southland Times Building consists of the three storey 1908 building, extended at the rear in the 1950s. The Edwardian Italianate style of the main building’s façade is expressed through plaster decorative features on the street-front elevation, within a formal symmetrical format. The architectural value is because it is representative of the popularity of Italianate influences in New Zealand commercial architecture.
