Flinders street Ballroom
MELBOURNE | VICTORIA
Australia’s oldest train station, Flinders Street station is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register. Its distinctive façade and green copper dome are the result of an architectural competition to design the station held in 1902.
Now over a century old, urgent heritage restoration began in 2015. Many of the works could not be completed by modern machinery, so dedicated artisans using age-old techniques have played a vital role in the redevelopment.
The works have included the repair and restoration of the façade, roof, and heritage clock tower, as well as the repainting and renewal of windows and the replacement of a staggering eight thousand tiles.
Oak & Stone Building Co are proud to have been apart of the restoration process.
