ReplyDeletesaludos
muy interesante post
saludos!
Gracias!
ReplyDeleteThis is another example where it has that transitional look going on - goodbye art deco, hello post war style....
ReplyDeleteThanks again Thomas.
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought the building was a really lovely pavilion, so popular in swimming suburbs like Cronulla or Bondi. But now I am not clear what a municipal memorial hall is - not the suburb's town hall?
ReplyDeleteHels,
ReplyDeleteI couldn't find much information about it. I suspect it is a community hall rather than a Town Hall.
