A fine Art Deco building in Poughkeepsie. It was built in 1932 and is currently owned by the Reformed Dutch Church of Poughkeepsie from which it gets the name Church Building although it is occupied by a cafe and various offices.
MELBOURNE ART DECO
In 2009 Robin Grow published a book on Melbourne Art Deco, with images largely supplied by David Thompson. The book quickly sold out and he is pleased to say that it has now been re-published by Brolga Press, with updates, errors corrected and a new cover.
Best of all, it is selling for about $25 in the shops and on-line. Art Deco & Modernism Society members can purchase a copy from me for $22, (includes postage within Australia). For overseas orders please email for postage rates. Contact me at robingrow@ozemail.com.au if you are interested, and advise if you would like the book to be dedicated and/or signed.
WOW......love the zigzag bordering. I can see the zigzag in ornimentation. The roof pic....a starburst design?

Yes, it is a magnificent entrance and you are right, the design inside the doorway is a starburst.
