    Wow! That doesn't look like your typical nursing facility. I wonder about the cost?

      I have no idea Linda, but there must be some money in aged care. Our population is aging and they're certainly building a lot of retirement villages.

    I would never have picked that building as a care home for us elderlies. It looks smart.

    Great 2in1-photo, see inside and outside (I think, that is only the administration, I would never live in such transparent building)

      It's quite a good view across the road of a park and a cricket field.

    Hi Jim!
    This building is great.
    This very modern. It's not like a nursing home.

    Hi Jim, I'm the new kid on the block today.
    What a great complex! Someone must have had an inspired (excuse pun) vision which eventually has become reality. I hope charity doesn't stop there and that their facilities are open to anyone irrespective of means.
    greetings from Spain,
