This is another one of those red brick Art Deco apartment blocks in Sydney. This is Huntingdon in Elizabeth Bay and I am not sure about the awning over the entrance bearing the block's name. I presume it is a later addition and I suppose it is a deco font but seems a bit cliched to me.
However, I do like the brickwork. Again a common feature of Sydney, and in fact Australian, Art Deco.

The awning looks 1970s in style but the building is just delicious!
ReplyDeleteThose bricks and 'columns' reaching to the roofline are just the perfect simple yet obvious gilding on the building.
Yes the awning looks like a retro deco touch to me.
