Demolition work will continue this week on the front section that was built in Greek Revival style in 1924, when the building was a bank.
Zauner Construction has also been working on the rear of the original two-storey Crown lands building that forms the largest part of Burrows House.
More than 15,000 bricks have been removed, including 5000 from the front of Burrows House and 10,000 from a 1970s extension of the building.
Project manager for Zauner Construction Brendan Tracey said the demolition was a slow process.
An archaeological report would be made to the NSW Heritage Off-ice.
A glass wall will be built in front of the new Dean Street frontage.
