One of the largest structures of its kind and one that is unique in the Southern Hemisphere, the glass dome being fitted in the new chief post office at Hamilton is one of the outstanding features of the building, which is rapidly nearing completion, states a Hamilton correspondent. The dome has a diameter of 40ft and a rise of 4ft, and is being made of 1660 heavy eight-inch glass lenses set on welded steel and bound with concrete. It rests on a ring beam, and its value lies in its capacity to give an even distribution of light. The ■ dome is siuated over the public office. Nearly five tons of glass are used in the dome, the total weight of which is 23a tons. Excellent progress has been made on the erection of the post office, and the interior construe- , tion is well advanced. The building is expected to be ready for occupation in a few months.
