Palmerston North Polytechnic, corner of Queen and Princess Streets
- Description
This building was designed by the architect, Frederick de Jersey Clere, as the Palmerston North Technical Institute in 1909. It was greatly altered in the early 1930s when gables and associated embellishments were removed for safety reasons. It was taken over by the Palmerston North Teachers' College in 1955. In 1971 possession returned to the then Polytechnic, now UCOL. In 1998 it was restored and now looks fundamentally the same as the original.
