Mascot, shop

This former corner shop and residence built in the Federation Style is located on the corner of Hardie Street and Hollingshed Street, in the eastern suburb of Mascot. It is now used as an office for Poseidon Freight.

  1. I love the wide veranda. Interesting that the benches face the building.

  2. Such a dark entry. Cool in summer. I agree with Yogi, interesting the benches face in. Or is that the usual for there?

    1. I hadn't really thought about that before but it's not unusual for benches to face away from the street here. Maybe it's considered to be safer for people, particularly children, less likely to run straight into traffic.

  3. The old facade looks like an old fish and chips shop

    1. It could have been but more likely a grocery shop or milk bar in the old days.
