Part of the electricity substation on Montague Road in South Brisbane. I love this style with name and number rendered onto the building.

Julie said...: I agree with Jim, I love art deco. I like the light here too.

Don't you find vertical writing a challenge?

Do I feel a series coming on here? Akin to your traffic signals artwork? I would love that!; January 13, 2010 at 6:58 AM
