Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Over one hundred years ago the councillors of Albury decided that a town hall was needed, a building where the future of Albury would be decided. A national competition was held, asking for designs for a new town hall... there were twenty submissions to the competition.
Gordon Mc Kinnnon (Gordon McKinnon & Sons, NSW) was successful . His designs included the Parramatta Park gatehouse, Cherrybrook Uniting Church, the School of Arts at Bowral, Symonds’ Building in Sydney (Pitt Street), additions to the house Adamshurst at Albury, and the town halls in Forbes, Inverell and then of course this hall.
Ernest William Sharp was chosen as a Master Builder to construct the hall. He signed the contract for this in 1907 , it was to cost £3707.
It opened in 1908 ... the NSW premier opened it, Sir Charles Gregory Wade. Very important decisions were made in this building... about electricity and sewerage. Neville Wran made money available for the refurbishment of this building in the 1980s... at one point they were looking at demolishing it. Who says that politicians don't make good decisions. :)
What will you see here today? It is quite attractive... it has great architectural lines. It's wonderful to see it sitting amongst the modern cityscape as a testament to the history of the local area.

I walked past several times without noticing the building. I would not have given it a second glance if it were not for TripAdvisor. Decent old building, not as nice as some of the other funky architectural features of the city. Looked for twenty seconds and moved on.

This is a beautifully restored civic building in the middle of the main street of Albury. Well worth a look and great spot for photographs.

One of my criticisms of some NSW cities and towns is that overall they lack the architecture seen to the south in Victorian towns.
However this municipal building has been very well restored and kept in excellent condition, although I did not view its interior.
Let's hope it continues to be preserved.

The old Town Hall is located in the centre of town in Dean street and was built in the early 1900's.
This historical building has been well preserved and is well maintained.
