Really beautiful building with amazing architecture. Great building to take a look at if you're in the area and a fan of Victorian architecture. Exterior is well kept and extremely polished.
I've been reading lots of reviews about this building, and while I support many of them talking about how poorly maintained the Trades Hall was, today October 1st 2017 news about a massive restoration project surprised me in a good way. Ahead of this project, conservators from the University of Melbourne have found paintings under decades of layers of painting. The experts are now releasing interesting facts about this centennial building, most of the paintings are historic portraits. The Trades Hall will not only refurbish their walls and ceilings, but, luckily now, it will display their rich history for us to discover.
FOUR STARS FOR THE GREAT BONES OF THE BUILDING! The Victorian Trades Hall Council occupies a beautiful, but sadly negelected, building on the corner of Victoria and Lygon Sts. Its not a public building but its worth walking along the street to get a sense of an important part of the development of Australia's industrial relations system. There is a lot of history encapsulated in this building and even today it is often draped in campaign banners concerning workers rights. The early days of the Australian labour movement saw stonemasons walk off the job a building at the new Melbourne University in 1856 in support of better working hours. The "eight hour work day" was born from this and there is a monument on the opposite corner commemorating this outcome.
Extremely rude and uninterested staff especially at information desk. Hand balling everything on. Every simple, tiny request is too hard. A beautiful old building but by gosh, I really thought the staff were there to help...? I was quite obviously wrong.
Doing what is needed to maintain good conditions for workers. After 25 years of service Trades Hall organised an event for others in the same field. They kept records my own employer didn't and felt 'someone' recognised the long service and contibution. Without this body, workers conditions will continue to downgrade. Good on trades hall!
Beautiful heritage building with well preserved features. There is good advice inside for workers in need and the staff are great.
The building itself is poorly maintained and needs a lot of restoration work. The site still houses some interesting history however.
Andrews had run Victoria into the ground and these losers have been quiet the whole time
Historic old venue for many diverse small events. Arrive early as some rooms hard to find.
I don't know what this building does. Probably a waste of taxpayer dollars.
