- Prahran Town Hall
Prahran Town Hall is a civic building located on the corner of Chapel Street and Greville Street in Prahran, a suburb of
Melbourne ,Australia .The original hall was built in 1861 to the design of local architects Crouch & Wilson in the popular Italianate style of Melbourne at the time, including renaissance inspired interior spaces.
The hall was extended some years later to include a City Hall (1888) in a complementing style.
The decorative clock tower was designed by
Charles D'Ebro and built in 1890 as the municipal offices and council chambers for the former Prahran Council.In the 1960s, the decorative tower was truncated.After the amalgamation of the City of Prahran with the City of Malvern in 1994 to form the
City of Stonnington , the Town Hall now functions as secondary offices for the new Stonnington City Council, (City of Stonnington ).ee also
