Bureau de Post de St. Stephen

English

Built in 1885-1887, this building was constructed to house the post office, customs and internal revenue. Designed under federal chief architect Thomas Fuller, the structure is one of a series of building erected to establish a federal presence throughout the country. This is a fine example of late 19th century design in its picturesque composition and in the varied colours and textures of the exterior building materials. The round-arched doors and windows and the decorative carving show the influence of the Romanesque Revival style. Since 1965, this building has served as the St. Stephen town hall.

Cet ?difice a ?t? construit entre 1885 et 1887 pour abriter un bureau de poste, de douanes, et d?autres services gouvernementaux. Con?u sous la direction de l?architecte en chef du gouvernement f?d?ral Thomas Fuller, it fait partie d?une serie de b?timents construits pour ?tablir une presence f?d?rale ? travers le pays. Son agencement pittoresque ainsi que la vari?t? des couleurs et de la texture de mat?riaux de l?ext?rieur en font un bel exemple du style de la fin du XIXᵉ si?cle. Les ouvertures en arc et la sculpture d?corative montrent l?influence du style n?o-roman. Depuis 1965, cet ?difice sert d?h?tel de ville.
