Chippendale, flats
The "Strickland Building" contains residential flats and retail shops along Balfour Street, in the inner city suburb of Chippendale. It was designed by R. M. Broderick and built in the early 1900s in the Federation Arts and Crafts architectural style.
Quite striking architecture!

ReplyDeleteyes they definitely look like they were built around that period and they look well kept and tidy.
ReplyDeleteI like it. Looks welcoming.
ReplyDeleteWow. Are those apartments? Or is that one house? Either way, it's a marvelous show of craftmanship than we normally see nowadays. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, Janice, the word apartment is used more often for high rises while flat is used for blocks with only a few storeys.
DeleteI didn't realize the difference between a flat and an apartment.
ReplyDeleteInteresting building!
ReplyDeleteVery attractive. And thanks for the clarification of the word flat.
ReplyDeleteNo worries, Jocelyn. I sometimes forget or don't realise the cultural differences in our versions of English.
