    I like the style- it has a lot of character.

    The design on the corner element of the building is so unique. Almost like a partial chateau tower.

    Don't know what the story is behind this name. You should look up the story behind the Yellow Rose of Texas. I won't tell it because it isn't family friendly. Hope the Rose of Australia is also an interesting story.
