Wellington Town Hall, early 1950s

The Town Hall sans central tower and other roof embellishments which had been taken down following the 1942 earthquake; a photo from about 1950.  The building still exists but the Civic Centre now occupies the surrounding area. This is a photo that was considered for, but not used in the books Wellington: a Capital Century and Wellington Transport Memories.  Those who have those books will know what the bus it.
