“Queen Victoria Building is a famous late-nineteenth-century structure designed by the architect George McRae. The building is owned by the City of Sydney and was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register. Queen Victoria Building represents an outstanding example of the grand retail establishments of the Victorian-Federation era in Australia and a superb example of the Federation Romanesque style. The Queen Victoria Building holds a special place in the community as a major city landmark for its appearance, imagery, and grand interior spaces. The building has continued to operate as a market facility for over 190 years, marking an important historical legacy. The Victoria Building has been sympathetically restored to its original façade, incorporating elements of both Victorian and Art Deco styles. The building is one of the most prestigious and stylish settings for corporate entertaining, training, conferences, wedding receptions, and other celebrations, accommodating up to 500 people.”
