Waterloo Town Hall, Victorian architecture town hall in Waterloo, New South Wales, Australia.
The town hall features classical elements including decorative cornices, large archways, and a symmetrical facade at 770 Elizabeth Street in Waterloo.
Constructed between 1880 and 1882, the building served as the seat of Waterloo Municipal Council until 1948, when the area merged with Sydney.
The structure represents the architectural preferences of late 19th-century Australian public buildings, combining Victorian Italianate and Second Empire influences.
Since 1972, the building has operated as the Waterloo Library, a branch of the City of Sydney Library system serving local residents.
During World War II, the town hall contained an air-raid shelter, which remains one of the few surviving wartime shelters in Sydney.
