STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

Historically, Geelong's most distinctive landmark of the rising post-Second War bus transport era and the architectural epitaph of the cessation of trams.

Architecturally, late in its use of stylism, but symbolic of new post-War drive for materials conservation, utility and simplicity of architectural expression.
