Nice building, it always reminds my of US style architecture from this period. It's a very photogenic building, I've taken several shots of this particular building and other Modernist banks on my new Australian wide Modernism blog > http://www.modernaus.blogspot.com/
Agreed Thomas, a lovely building, and by Melbourne standards of the time, a genuine skyscraper. I remember seeing your post a little while back and as always your photo was outstanding.
Happy New Year and Best Wishes for everything down Tassie way.
Golden Age Motel in Omeo Victoria is a good one and it's surprising where else they pop up in regional and rural Victoria. Saddest of all though recently was the loss of the Elizabeth Tower Hotel in Carlton.
Thanks, I'll have to check out Omeo. I agree about the Elizabeth Tower. I can still see Lucky Grills as Bluey running up those stairs. It's bound to be on YouTube if I could find it.
