The final image is the plaque, which states that the colours are the original ones, reapplied!

I love seeing old buildings restored. What is it used for today? Still a hotel?

Julie said...

Yes, Diane, still a hotel. Part of the ANA group, which has a mega tower relatively adjacent,

I find it quite amazing how rich the colours were in the old times. I also like those stripy verandahs. I often wonder whether the verandah on our house was like that. I don't have an old photograph to know.

I love the colors and especially love the first photo.
