"Smith's Hall" is located along Denison Street between Burt Road and Alfred Street, in the inner west suburb of Rozelle. This heritage listed building opposite Easton Park, was built as a dance hall in 1908 in the Federation architectural style. It was converted into four dwellings in 2000 and is now used as a residential guest house.

Its architecture seems to feel further back- it wouldn't be out of place in the 19th century West.
ReplyDeleteMy parents at one point had a van like that.
...nice building, but I LOVE the VW!
ReplyDeleteI was a bit reluctant to take the photo of the building because it had been targeted with graffiti and some of it not covered up so well. But I was taken by the kombi van parked there and thought I may not get an opportunity to see it there again.
DeleteVan was sold for 25000
DeleteI like this old building. That was one thing I enjoyed about travelling around Australia...the old buildings.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool building. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love old buildings, and I love old vehicles. Great shot!

ReplyDeleteWas a room up the top where ladies would do men favours back in 50s..
ReplyDeleteI was a young boy wandering the streets in the 60s trying to find my mum or dad in various pubs in the area at the time.
My mother bottom was normally welded to the stools at the White Bay Hotel.
Thank God those days have gone..
