Reproduction building after the original was demolished to make way for the Central Bank. It was planned to rotate the original 90 degrees to allow for the Central Bank to be built, and to that end, the stonework was dismantled and numbered, however this facsimile was erected in its place. As it was, the original building had only one elevation to the street, so there would not have been enough facade stonework to complete the project anyway. A glazed pavilion was added on top as part of a redevelopment of the former Central Bank.
