Auckland Savings Bank Building
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']').
Built in 1884 and located at 260 Queen Street, Auckland, this building was formerly owned by the Auckland Savings Bank. In 1977, the building became a McDonald's restaurant, the first in Auckland and only the second in New Zealand (behind Porirua).[1] Much of the facade and interiors have been renovated and the original bank vault still remains in use as a stockroom.[citation needed]
Designed by Edward Bartley, the facade was inspired by Italian Renaissance palazzi, a style much used by commerce and banking during some eras. It is one of the few remaining buildings on Queen Street that is over a hundred years old.[2]
