Paddington, George Smith Memorial Hall
The George Smith Memorial Hall is located along Newcombe Street, in the eastern suburb of Paddington. This heritage listed building was built around 1910 in the Federation Romanesque architectural style for the former Paddington Methodist Church, now Paddington Uniting Church. It now houses offices for the Uniting Church, Eastside Arts, Paddington Markets and Community Mental Health Services.
Impressive, and good use for the building.

ReplyDeleteThe green over the doorway is very interesting. Always glad when these great old buildings are being not only saved but also used well
ReplyDeleteGreat, Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLooks like some of the bigger houses they have been building in the more elite neighborhoods in town near me. How fun to live near a town called Paddington. Love that name.
