Sadly the Townsville T&G was demolished a few years back for redevelopment. The land is still vacant and is used now as a car parking bay!Thomas Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10295062570302129782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989779602103737857.post-80636241775473730442011-07-11T12:29:51.909+10:002011-07-11T12:29:51.909+10:00Thanks Helen,

The Horsham T&G Building is even more like the Albury one but has incorporated the T&G logo into the clock face.<br /><br /><a href="http://artdecobuildings.blogspot.com/2009/04/t-building-horsham.html" rel="nofollow">Art Deco Buildings: T&G Building, Horsham</a>David Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08559022801796129763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989779602103737857.post-46399677526757909342011-07-11T11:19:38.400+10:002011-07-11T11:19:38.400+10:00Very classy building!

Offices? <br /><br />I thought that elements of the T & G Building in Albury were familiar to me. Especially the square tower with the distinctive T & G logo. <br /><br />But I was thinking of T & G in Mildura. The logo is of course the same, and the top of the tower is identical, but the Mildura windows are horizontal instead of vertical. <br /><br />http://melbourneblogger.blogspot.com/2009/10/mildura-rural-city-of-art-deco-gems.htmlHelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.com
