Registrar-General's building, Government heritage building in Sydney CBD, Australia
The three-story sandstone structure features Gothic elements with castellated corner turrets and decorative window frames along Prince Albert Road.
The building, designed by Government Architect Walter Liberty Vernon, opened in 1913 to serve as the central office for land titles registration.
The carved initials of stonemasons Colin Hudson and Herbert Charles Hudson remain visible on the building's exterior, marking their craftsmanship.
The Land and Property Information division of New South Wales government manages land titles and property records within this building.
Vermont slate roofing materials were selected for the restoration due to their superior grain texture and resistance to weather conditions.
