The Bidura Children’s Court is a multi-storey, white off-form concrete building. 

The building sits on a podium with two levels set below the ground. The upper levels step back from three of the site's boundaries, further reducing the building’s mass and scale. Expressing each level are wide, cantilevered terraces edged with reinforced concrete balustrades and tubular railings. Juxtaposed against the floating horizontal terraces are several semi-cylindrical vertical elements that express stairwells.

The original scheme included landscaping in planter boxes around the edges of each terrace to further soften the building. From a distance, it would have been substantially clad in green, with an almost 'Babylonic' appearance. (Special thanks to Jenna Reed Burns)

The existing has undergone only minor alterations over the three decades since it was built. It has suffered from a lack of maintenance and neglect over the years. It has continued to function as the Children’s Court for Sydney since its completion in 1983. The remand centre function of the building ceased in 1985.
The City of Sydney Council is now pushing for heritage listing, but the NSW government would have to approve (update: the New South Wales Land and Environment Court approved the demolition in December 2018). It is doubtful this will happen as they were the original owners who sold it to developers. These plan to demolish the building, further excavate the site and erect two 7–8 storey apartment towers and ten 3-storey townhouses. The Save Bidura campaign is trying to rescue the building.
