Municipal Electricity Building

90 Leven Street, INVERCARGILL

Quick links:

The MED offices were built in 1911/12 as part of the Invercargill Electric Tramways Corporation complex which comprised three buildings. The MED building was originally a single storied building; a second storey was added in around 1920. Its bold double storey brick exterior was perhaps a statement as to the seriousness of the Tramways operation. The MED building was the administrative centre for the Council's electric tramways and power operation for over 30 years.
