The multi-story building is the new in 1930 Wellington East Post Office
The former Wellington East Post Office in "Cambridge Terrace is an excellent representative of a civic building designed in the transitional Classical/Art Deco style of the 1920s and 1930s. It is a significant work by Government Architect, John Mair and is notable for the strong vertical emphasis of its well-designed, and well-proportioned, street façade.

This building served an important purpose as a post office for over 60 years, and represents something of the importance that this benign state institution had in our recent history. Its ownership and use have passed from the public to the private sector, reflecting social and political change from the late 1960s onwards"
