Description

No. 63 George Street is a late 19th century office building designed in the Queen Anne style. It features red brick construction with stucco and stone dressings, topped by a Welsh slate roof. The facade facing George Street has two window bays, with a single bay at the angled corner, while the King Street elevation has eleven bays. The building stands three storeys tall and has a rendered parapet with capped pillars marking the bay divisions, along with a moulded cornice.

On the second floor, there are double-hung sash windows set within architrave surrounds, and a keystone is present above the window on the angled corner elevation. A continuous bracketed cill string runs along the second floor. The first floor features taller sash windows in similar surrounds, but these include a cornice. The corner entrance window has a keystone and a heavy bracketed pediment, with a continuous cill string adorned with modillions, except for the last six bays of the King Street elevation. The building has stucco quoins at the angles of the first and second floors.

The ground floor was remodeled in the 20th century, introducing rusticated pilasters, polished marble columns, and a plinth. The entrance is notable for its heavy keystone, carved swags, and a bracketed curved canopy.
