Review & FAQ:

The Old Bank Arcade is a popular shopping center located on the corner of Lambton Quay and Hunter Streets in the historic Edwardian baroque building designed by Thomas Turnbull and built in 1901 for the Bank of New Zealand. After the bank abandoned the building, it stayed empty until 1990, when it was purchased and restored to its former glory. The Old Bank Arcade was opened in 1999 and offers exclusive, luxury boutique shopping, restaurants, and cafés in beautiful, elegant surroundings. An animated, musical clock suspended from the ceiling of the Banking Chamber opens every hour on the hour to tell the story of the building site.
