Bellevue Court, Clayfield

I don't know anything about these flats in Clayfield, Brisbane. I don't like the fence at all, hides too much of the building but it looks like there is a good side entrance.

6 Arlington Street, Back Bay

58-60 Queen Street, Auckland

This is 58-60 Queen Street, Auckland. It was original built in 1936 but in recent years has been transformed into a hotel. When I took these photos a couple of years ago it was the Park Regis but it has since become the Grand Windsor Hotel.

Bank of China, Nanjing

For the start of the new year, I thought I'd add a new city to my blog - Nanjing, China.

This is the Xinjiekou branch of the Bank of China in Zhongshan E Road in Nanjing. A very faded sign indicates that the building was formerly a branch of the Xinye Bank and was built in 1937.

The decoration is very subtle but you can see some of the detail in the panels below the windows.

A much clearer sign promotes the building as the Lady's Bank incorporating a female face in the letter 'B' of the logo.
