Quite a plain block of flats in College Park but they have a bit of decorative brickwork on the corners, a large panel of glass bricks, presumably to let light into the stairwell and, as a nice touch, curved glass bricks either side of the door.
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.
I love glass blocks, and I think this may be the first time I have seen curved blocks.

It's in Princeton Avenue, near Calvert Road.
