Parliamentary Library
Parliamentary Library by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

Library of the New Zealand Legislature, Wellington. Built between 1897–99, it is the only surviving wing of the original parliament buildings following the 1907 fire, owing to stone masonry and a fire-proof door. It was intended to be redesigned in the 1911 architectural contest, although I'm not sure if it received any serious renovations. Like Parliament House, the Library underwent quake-proofing refurbishment in the 1990s.
