I really like this building in Little Collins Street, near the corner of Russell Street. It's now apartments and shops, but in the 1890s it was home to a form of public entertainment called a Clyclorama.

It´s a great building and the big photo does justice to that. I´m glad you are doing it right now.
ReplyDeleteI've always loved that building, a little touch of Europe in the city.
