The Piccadilly Hotel in Victoria Street, Potts Point isn't looking its best in my pic from a few years ago but I wonder what the VIP Lounge is like inside.
As is often the case when I find Art Deco buildings, I am on my way somewhere and don't have time to really have a good look around so I can't tell you what the interior is like.
Maybe someone in Sydney has been in recently and can shed some light on it.
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.
This building could be smart, if only money was put into renovating the place. Is it structurally intact and internally well designed?
