Jury Comments
A deft example of adaptive reuse that rescues an historic building while signalling a fresh new start for a formerly controversial institution. The forecourt on Parliament Street, created by the generous setback of the new addition, is an important and appreciated civic gesture on one of the city’s oldest main streets.
