The post office backs onto and is partly surrounded by Rosalind Park.

The building was built between 1883 and 1887 by the contractors McCulloch and McAlpine and designed by Public Works architect George W. Watson in the Second Empire architectural style.

The Centre boasts a large information area, an adjoining First Nations Gallery - Djaa Djuwima - and a Living Arts Space, which showcases some of the region's best artists.

The building has been included on the Victorian Heritage Register as being of "architectural, historic, and aesthetic significance to Victoria".
