The Commonwealth Trading Bank Building, also known as the Commonwealth Bank Building, is an historically significant building in Sydney, Australia, located on the corner of Pitt Street and Martin Place. It is the headquarters of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, which for a significant part of the 20th century functioned as Australia's central bank. ==History== The Commonwealth Bank was created in 1911 under order of Prime Minister Andrew Fisher. Its head office was designed by architect John Kirkpatrick, who was the cousin of the bank's governor. In August 1916, the building opened. The building was expanded with extensions designed by E.H. Henderson and F. Hill between 1929 and 1933, and in 1966 construction was begun on an annex, completed in 1967. From 2012 the building was extensively refurbished. The 1960s extension was rebuilt, while much of the 1916 building and 1930s extension was stripped out and refurbished.〔"(Martin Place 'money box' to be redeveloped )", ''Sydney Morning Herald'' 5 August 2011〕〔(TSA Management - 120 Pitt Street )〕〔(Beasy - 120 Pitt Street )〕
