The Old Government Buildings stand on the Government Buildings Historic Reserve on Lambton Quay in central Wellington, New Zealand. Designed by William Henry Clayton in the Renaissance Revival style, they were completed in 1876 on land reclaimed from Wellington Harbour to house the young New Zealand Government and its public service. The building now houses the Law School of Victoria University of Wellington and is a Category 1 historic place with Heritage New Zealand. Until 1998 it was the second-largest wooden building in the world, after Tōdai-ji in Nara, Japan.
