Richmond Town Hall, Melbourne

Richmond Town Hall is a civic building located on Bridge Road in Richmond, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia.

Built in the 1890s, the original Richmond Town Hall was in the Venetian Gothic Revival style, consisting of polychrome brickwork and a large tower.

In the 1930s, the façade was remodelled in the Interwar Academic Classical Revival style, with Art Deco decorations, to become the Richmond City Hall.

[1] The Town Hall was refurbished in 1991, but some sections of the rear of the building, and some interior spaces, retain the original Victorian era detailing.
