City Mutual Life Assurance Building, Art Deco office building in Sydney central business district, Australia.
The ten-story structure features polished granite and sandstone cladding, with a three-story high main business chamber at a 45-degree entrance angle.
Following a design competition in 1934, architect Emil Sodersteen received the commission to construct this building, which opened on October 1, 1936.
The structure represents commercial architectural development in Sydney, incorporating American skyscraper influences within its Art Deco design elements.
Located at 60-66 Hunter Street, the building contains two basement levels and became one of the first Sydney structures with integrated air conditioning.
The granite-clad exterior displays detailed stone carvings and ornamental elements that define the symmetrical facade facing Hunter and Bligh Streets.
