Woolwich, Marist Sisters' Convent

The former Marist Sisters' Convent is located along Woolwich Road in the lower north shore suburb of Woolwich. It was built in 1908 in the Federation architectural style and is now part of the Marist Sisters' College, a Catholic secondary school for girls.

    Federation shape exactly, but the surface material looks a bit.... Mexican perhaps? Love it!

      We see that textured stucco in quite a few Federation style buildings.

    Very stylish and interesting facade. Love the arched features at the lower level.

    A style of architecture that I would expect to see the southwest US.
