Art Deco flats - Townsville Strand


This example of Art Deco flats is located in the city of Townsville, along the beach waterfront area known locally as 'The Strand'  There are several examples of Modernist 20th Century design along The Strand, and this one is a real beauty, symmetrically designed through the use of a central staircase and balconies to let all breeze flow in a climate that is rather harsh in the summer months!
