Union Bank Tower and Annex (Royal Tower)
Enlarge text: smaller | larger
The Union Bank is believed to be the country’s oldest
surviving steel frame and reinforced concrete “skyscraper”.
Located next to City Hall, the tower has experienced high
volumes of traffic, both through and outside its prominent
location on Main.
The tower was a coming of age confirmation for the City,
indicating that investors were bullish about its future.
