Ravenshoe Town Hall - Bold Art Deco Lines


How many Art Deco town halls must have been built around Australia?  Throughout my documentation of Art Deco and Modernism throughout Australia, the town hall has to be one of the Modernist buildings that come up again and again. They evoke a sense of community and civic pride and just look at the use of vertical banding - so very Art Deco! This town hall is in the township of Ravenshoe in tropical Far North Queensland.
