The Old Civic Group, Ipswich
Pen and ink sketch by Dirk Blokland, taken from a National Trust of Qld. book "Historic Ipswich"
The Post Office, Town Hall (originally School of Arts and Mechanics' Institute) and old Bank of Australasia form a civic complex of great solidity and architectural appeal. For many years the group suffered from civic neglect but with recent attention the handsomeness of these classic styled 19th century civic buildings is able to be appreciated.
